Its scheduled for approximately 6PM, EDT. Preakness post is 6:18 so hopefully God waits until its official.


Good Luck,

\" Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and
the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky

And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of
the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming upon the clouds of
heaven with power and great glory

And he will send out his angels with a trumpet blast, and they will gather his
elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other

But of that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven nor the
Son, but the Father alone.\"


Matthew 24
                                     
       
\"General Patton, I was surprised to see a Bible near your bed. Do you find time
to read it?\"

General GSP \"Every goddamned day\"

Gotta get back to the internet, see if any of my Derby selections have finished
the race yet.

I hear the Father also did not tip off the Son that AK would take to the Churchill main.

FWIW a couple of these picks didn\'t do too poorly, even if the world didn\'t end.

Saints Alive won, paying $22.40 $9.60  $5.50 while Forty Prayers ran 3rd paying $3.00 to show.

Sacred Soul won the 13th at Pim paying $8.20 $4.00  $3.40.

I would say most salient result was the Preakness was won by a guy named Jesus who dedicated the victory to his recently departed father (also named Jesus).

Saints Alive was the beneficiary of the bizarre ride by Julio Pezua mentioned elsewhere on this board.  Hard to imagine Pezua getting a license to ride in Hong Kong or Australia.  Hard to imagine the NY Stewards even asking Pezua to explain.

\"Harold Camping revised his apocalyptic prophecy Monday, saying he was off by five months because the Earth actually will be obliterated on Oct. 21\"

Can\'t you reach out to this loon with a view of having him become a regular poster here.Would fit right in, no?

The Florida preacher guy missed it by a mile imo - where was he before the \'08 BC at MTH . ..
