Joe,

JM>  I've never been to a horse track.

  I knew of Hialeah Park, only because my high school graduation class
went their for class pictures. Arkansas has Oaklawn Park in Hot Springs,
and their 2020 season starts soon.

JM>  Some years ago a friend came to town and we went to the dog track.

  They also have greyhound racing in south Florida...and have it over in
West Memphis, Arkansas.

JM>  Neither of us had ever been there before.  Phyllis would watch as the
JM>dogs were trotted out and say "Number six will win".  And it did.

  Her alter ego wasn't "Claire Voyeant", was it?? <G>

JM>  This went on for five or six races.  Each time she picked a winner.
JM>  With the last race I told her I wasn't a betting man but we could share a
JM>$2 bet.
JM>  We won something like 50 cents.
JM>  I figured I would quit while I was ahead.
JM>  I can say in all honestly I have won every bet at the races.  :)

  True.

  I haven't played the Arkansas Lottery in several months. But, when I
played it, I played only once a month, just buying scratch off tickets,
and spending no more than $5, win or lose.

  So many who "hit it big" pay a big price in so many ways, afterwards.
Never mind those who can least afford it, spend everything they have on
tickets.

Daryl
