Katherine and I may go to the Kentucky Derby one day. (We went to the Daytona 500 this past February and have the Indianapolis 500 and the Masters on our radar.) This afternoon, as we watched the race on television, I pretended to be there. I chose a horse to win, a horse to place, and a horse to show, for $100 each. My "place" horse, Lookin at Lee, which went out at 33-1, finished second, paying $26.60 for a two-dollar wager. I would have won $1,330, for a profit of $1,030. I need to get to the track before my luck runs out!

Here are highlights from Stage 2 of the Giro d'Italia.

Queen (1973). This is the first song on the first Queen album, which was released 44 years ago. The song was written by guitarist Brian May. Freddie Mercury sings.

Socialist chickens coming home to roost.

Perhaps one of the Republican members of the House of Representatives would like to explain why, if the new Trumpcare is so good for everyone, they exempted themselves and their families from the coverage?

If it’s good enough for the citizens who voted for them, it should be good enough for them.

I want a good reason why. Anyone?

Note from KBJ: I hope you wrote that same letter when ObamaCare was passed, Sue. But of course you didn't, because you're unprincipled. Obama good, Trump bad.

Why is it that the Fake News rarely reports Ocare is on its last legs and that insurance companies are fleeing for their lives? It's dead!
