Joe Knows Best

Joe says most people don't realize that there are
7000 students living around the Red Mile.

What Joe didn't realize is there are over 40,000
students 3 blocks from track. Now we all just
assumed he knew. That's the problem.... KYians
assume others know, and NYers assume others don't
know.
(Sorry Joe, but you must remember..you are in Ky.)

In theory, what he had to be talking about when he
said "most people" was all the folks that have never
been to Lexington, or Kentucky, or the track.

What most folks don't know is ....

Joe does know best......just ask him.
The Word on the Street

What's the latest word on the street?
After having 3 wins in a single season, Uncle Bobby
has decided to retire. So...what does this mean?

In theory, it means one of two things:

A. He is going to buy a fishing boat or             
B. He is going to become one of the following:

Bookmaker, Horse Trader, Author, Conman,
or all of the above.
"Official" Requirements

What is the number one requirement or skill you
must have to become a RACETRACK OFFICIAL?

You must be able to spell BOB backwards.

(a little tip from Uncle Bobby)
THE ALLI CAPPI SHOW
The only one of it's kind.....a Question & Answer session with ALLI and CAPPI.

Each one comes from a different side of the track.
Straight shooters they are, bullsh!tters they are not. Hated by some, loved by many.
They will rattle the cages of the "politically correct",
as they live their lives being "politically uncorrect".
-their motto -
They would rather be hated for who they are, then loved for something they are not.
CAPPI the parrot
CAPPI:
    How many RACETRACK OPERATORS does it take to fix a lightbulb?

ALLI:
    It takes only 9 when KING KONG's DADDY is around to guide them.

CAPPI:
    How many POLLOCKS does it take to fix a lightbulb?

ALLI:
    Only 6. Five to hold the ladder and one to screw in the lightbulb.

CAPPI:
    Does a bear sh!t in the woods?

ALLI:
    That all depends --- if he is in the woods when he needs to sh!t.

CAPPI:
    How do you fix the lights?

ALLI:
    Turn them off...wait 30 minutes, then turn them back on. Repeat this 3 times - it usually does the trick.

CAPPI:
    What if that doesn't work?

ALLI:
    Then wait till the following weekend and repeat the same routine.

CAPPI:
    Hey ALLI....How many years does it take to get 5 years experience?

ALLI:
    Hey CAPPI.....You need to write a "Dear John Letter". But to answer your question....It takes all of 5
    years to get 5 years experience. And thats any......way you want to slice it.
