Naw, **Diogenes** is too cynical to fall for your wiles. It is I, **EddyTeddyFreddy** , charging in after a day at the races to predict… **Horseflesh**!!!

Hey, I spent the whole afternoon at the Plainridge track watching harness races. Including seeing my friend’s horse, the favorite in the feature race, come in third, dammit.

But I came out two bucks ahead for the day, so who’s complaining?

Damn, **Happy** – sneaking in like that before I’d finished composing my reply to **hopefool**. Grumble grumble grumble…

All right, I’m not going to cheat and predict myself, if only because it takes too doggone long to type my name. 😉

I’ll just predict: **Happy L** again!

Only too happy to oblige **rolandgunslinger** , if for no other reason than I’d like to make someone right and you’re name is SO cool!

Ok, my last shot at this pathetic effort of mine. Howabout…

Well, well, well, looks like **jackelope** decides to show hours after I made my prediction. Can we just ignore the 30 posts between mine and his pretend like I was right?

No!  
Well, that was fun. I worked today (I am self employed-ish) and left early for a cool date. Went out to eat and then went to my cool cuzn’s place and hung out. Played cards, talked, joked, got to know each other a bit. She already knew my cuz, so that was an easy way to do things.

We’ll see how this works out in the next couplaweeks.

Don’t tell **lel**.

You wanna know how I chooose poster manes to guess?

You wanna know?

Yaaaaa…wanna know?

y’wanna know?

I go to the thread lists and choose one of the last few posters.

Hasn’t worked, tho.

I’m a bit of a wallflower but my poster name wouldn’t suggest it.
