As some managers I once knew liked to say, it’s almost Friday. (BTW, it’s a bad sign if your manager says that.) ---

Still smoky and another few degrees down. It’s not even going to hit 100F today. Still a very warm bump. ---

Less smoke today. As Keats said: A thing of beauty is a bump for ever: Its loveliness increases; it will never Bump into nothingness; but still will bump A bower quiet for us, and a sleep Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing. ---

Thanks, **Panache**. The big winner was a $93.10 exactor. Looking forward to next week! (Hopefully, I won’t lose it.) It’s a hobby. I don’t bet big, so I’m glad of any wins that will cover my beer tab. If I go home with more money than I arrived with, so much the better. If not, well, that’s racing. Oh, and bump.
