I walked the Ghetto Cat Loop this morning* in 33:07 to get the juice flowing for my trip to Oaklawn Park with Tom Zaloudek. It's opening day there, and I won exactly $19, or a $28 return on $9 wagered. My return to the Oaklawn press box has to rank among my lifetime's nice events, in the Top 20 at least. The reception I received was encouraging and supportive throughout.
*I'm sure some will accuse me of lying, but it began to snow moments after I arrived back home. At 8:11 a.m., it's coming down pretty good**
**Nope, I heard at least a half dozen people say something like goddamn, did you see that fucking snow this morning? The afternoon was filled with sunshine. It got up to 48°F, I think, or nearly balmy
