A Broken Promise

So there we were, Beauregard van Horne and me, sitting in our usual restaurant as I was getting my quarterly wage review (or in layman’s terms : a raise).

It was hard to really pay attention, because as Faithful Readers may recall, I love horse racing season, and we were sitting there just in time as the restaurant was showing the running of the Preakness, which Barbaro, who I am very smitten with, was destined to win as he was going to become the next hallowed Triple Crown winner.

And then, the tragedy.

Barbaro fractured his hind leg coming out of the gate.

What a blow. I hope for his full recovery.

Damn.
