    The Era -- Day By Day

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Waller won at Jamaica and Colchis thieved the Chesapeake Stakes. Alsab proved knave Jack, so the kid's a busted flush and shot his bolt. The handle is healthy. A wealthy and wise jackpot succor for ace handicappers; all before the integral differential calculus crows crapped all over the...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Sung at The Cork & Kerry no less lad. A Sox enclave full to the rafters, wherein a Cubs fan risked life and limb and all that's holy just to imbibe incognizant among the heathen riffraff.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Fell off the wagon yesterday. Family function, ate like a pig. All out, went hog wild. Chocolate, to be sure, but emptied plates second, third. Cold bottles of Michelob. Caught a White Sox doubleheader. Some basketball. All in all a great time. Gettin back up is gonna be a chore.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    ^ Another never-seener. Merle Oberon is a gal I'd like to take to dinner and talk things over with. As a confirmed Irish bachelor workholic, commodities, stocks, tracks I can sympathize with Mel, too much of one and not enough the other, but this divorce, remarry stuff nosabbe. But then, I...

Approached for answers, I told each and all conerned to ride Baffert and O'Brien barn paddock full out for exacta, switched for good measure with Bob's bet top dog. Exactamundo exacta.

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Anna Merckling escaped Justice. Man 1 against infanticide is a prosecution nod to trial practicalities with all things considered; however, Man 1 should have been tendered for plea, and, if rejected, upped to Murder 1. ------ And that woman was probably Madame Chiang Kai-Shek, all decked out to...

    A Jewish proverb holds that a man and woman in love can make their bed on the edge of a sword. ....assuming, of course, these two are adults. And the issue of adulthood.... Anna Mecklin and Richard Wilhite are guilty of First Degree Murder. In the former instance infanticide after quicken...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Bob Baffert did himself and the sport a great harm. Added emphasis to the prior season at Santa Anita where horses were mercilessly ridden to ground, and, when deaths occurred, its track was blamed suspect. Back stretch rumor spelled whispers, while the Pegasus collapsed for all practical...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Sedition, even against a virulent bigoted anti-semite, peering at the world through his own rose colored eyes, is a difficult charge to prosecute. Coughlin was followed in time by other Catholic recalcitrants two decades later, and, like Coughlin, eventually were relegated to a back burner...

    The Era -- Day By Day

    Fr Coughlin should have been reined in by his ecclesial superiors, saving church and nation the harm done by a fool whom perilous times soon outraced, and whose personal bias was far too pernicious for any decent Roman Catholic cleric to hold.

    Simon Leys' epic essay collection The Hall of Uselessness Leys wrote under a nom de plume but was a Belgian expatriate named Pierre Ryckmans who passed eight years ago. I have made this particular essay collection an annual Easter time feast, a masterpiece of soul to be consumed with relish...
