OT 5-5-11: Run for the Roses or buy your Mum some edition.


I love horse racing three times a year and this Saturday is the 137th running of the Kentucky Derby. Doesn't the thumbnail pic of #17 slot's silks remind you of a local MLS soccer team kit?

It's always fun to sit down the day of with the racing form and remind myself how to place bets. Small wagers on 50-1 horses are always a hoot because you never know! I've picked the first three finishers a couple of times but I'd love to be up in that rare air big money superfecta group once.

Don't forget to call your Mom or maybe take her to brunch on Sunday. Oddly enough this year Mother's day falls on National Outdoor Intercourse Day.

All the usual.
