Here are a bunch of pics that I took when I wasn't studying the Daily Racing Form to find a winner or two.
Random Horses
Now I have to throw in a Food Pic. This is a favourite Canadian pastime of mine, Cut Fries with Malt Vinnegar.
Then there is the racing aspect of which if there wasn't this to begin with the whole point of being here would just about be moot for the vast majority of people.

Where the money goes. I had the #5 horse and wish I had listened to my gut instinct and boxed the 5 and 6 together for the Exacta (a bet picking the 1st and 2nd horses in order) The 6 horse was owned and trained by an excellent trainer. Andre Cappicetti.
Look at what the Superfecta paid for a $1 wager. The superfecta is picking the first 4 horses in correct order, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th. You could have even had 1/5 on a $0.20 cent bet!!!
I was happy to make some money on the 5 horse
SO afterwards I ended up heading back home and at the last minute went to the Domed Theater and checked out The Deftones. (e:metalpeter) I wish I had your #. If you wanted to go I would have been able to pick you in the Blo after I crossed the Peace Bridge.
Needless to say it was a kick ass show. They played for a little more than 90 minutes and the stage show was pretty impressive. They had the light board going behind them a la NIN style.
The only weird aspet of the show was this woman that I work with was a bartender there tonight. Most of the time I really can't stand her. She's just one of those people that loves to hear themselves talk, and thinks that just because she's skinny she's hot. While in actuality I think she looks like a freaking Muppet! But I digress I did have a good time and picked up a T-shirt. So with the $23 I won @ the track I ended up spending it on getting in and a bit more on an enjoyable concert.
I admit that I never saw a single episode of six feet under so I have no idea about the ending. If I understand the way the story was written on the Sprano's was that it was from there perspective as if they where real and not a TV show. In other words there is more story that we don't get to see. I have to admit that this episode had two of the best shot scenes I have seen in the series that I can remember. When Phil was hit and then the showed the car rolling away with the kids in it that was increadible. Then the car rolls over his neck and a witness pukes that was awesome. The final scene had lots of forshadowing in it and was also writen and shot so well the scene set us fans up to that someone was going to get shot and maybe even meadow would get envovled somehow. I think having Tony get hit would have been a great TV Moment but he is the star of the show and story wise it would have been a bad ending. Not only that but then if they did that then sil would have to die also then "uncle" June also. So with a little bit of reflection I think they did the right thing. Not to mention Tony getting hit wouldn't make sense since they got Phil and he was the Boss of the crew and one of his hit guys sided with Tony. It is good from a $$$ stand point to leave things open you never know there could be a spinoff or a movie or what I think would be Cool is if they came out with a Movie called cleaver. In hollywood you never know what will happen.
