The Derby

I just realized today that the Kentucky Derby is this Saturday. I try to never miss it, even though sometimes I do. Hopefully I will remember to tune in this time. I'm always intrigued at the names these horses end up with, because some of the names are pretty stupid.

I always thought that if I had a race horse, I would name him Bob. Yes, I know that sounds like a stupid name, but I think it would be awesome to hear the announcer yell Bob as many times as possible in two minutes. So, I've tentatively decided to pick the horse named "Bob and John" to win this year, since the name comes close to mine. I'm still reserving the right to change my mind after I see him, because if he looks like a mule with big floppy ears, he's out. Racehorses should never have big ears, in my opinion.

I'm still sad about not getting to see the horse show out here on Saturday, but I guess I'll have the Derby. Plus, I realized that I can go out there tomorrow and check it out. It just won't be the Grand Prix. Stupid work. Always getting in the way of my fun. That and lack of money. What a Catch-22, eh?
