"Race Day Cometh..............."

Good Afternoon;

Just got back to the shed from a bus ride across town.

Baltimore is doing it' final sprucing up for the Preakness.

Flowers are planted and grass and shrubbery along the highways

has been trimmed. Logos and insignia have been painted on the

roads and Pimlico Race Course is polished and shined up.

Oh yeah, and those embarrassing unsightly homeless people

have been rousted out of Downtown and anywhere along the

highways into the city and to the race track where there presense

might project a blemish or blotch that would show the rot and

disease below the layers of powder and paint.

Later...........................Dave
