How can it be the last lap when you never even did the first?

Rich - you sure that 50 Cent didn’t take you out?!

If it was really you it would have been Rich Miller Last Call.

Can you see your lap?
Comment by Casual Observer Wednesday, Apr 29, 15 @ 1:11 pm
My first thought was they were insulting your girth. But you look marvelous.

Well your last lap was won by Dandy’s Beauty…

Mike Z: Rich… Lance… the boss says he’ll watch Rich ride the horse from the Skybox. He says for you to go on ahead and watch Rich down here.
Rich: He can’t do that; that screws up the race and fun.
Lance: Well, that’s what he said.
Mike Z: I can’t ride in the race either, Rich.
Rich: [to Mike Z] Tell Bruce it was only business. I always liked him.
Mike Z: He understands that.
Lance: [removing Rich’s hidden cannoli] Excuse me, Rich.
Rich : Can you get me off the hook, Z? For old times’ sake?
Mike Z: [shakes his head] Can’t do it, Rich.
[Z watches sadly as Rich is led by Lance and the others to the starting gate and his horse for his last lap.]

“Rich Miller’s Last Lap”, the heartbreaking movie about the life of blogger Rich Miller who didn’t drink the Rauner brand Kool-Aid which contained the only antidote to the poisonous gas which was Working its way Right down To the end of Illinois.

Line starts with bachelor party. Maybe they left off the word “dance”?

They left out the last word… which was obviously, “dance.” It is a bachelor party after all.

I guess it’s an honor to have a horse named after you, but if said horse looks like he’s on his last lap, well…
Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Wednesday, Apr 29, 15 @ 1:50 pm
Typos. Maybe supposed to be “Last Lap For Last Place Finishers”.
…or “Last Call For Last Place Finishers”.
There is a “Last Place” beer. Link: http://www.bluetarpbrew.com/beers/

You see Arlington’s Opening Day card. For a three day week, 8 races, the first 4 with 6 horses. ‘Last lap’ means for all horse racing in Illinois.
Comment by DE Wednesday, Apr 29, 15 @ 1:51 pm
A typo - it was supposed to read:
“Rich Miller’s Last Lap Dance“
Comment by VanillaMan Wednesday, Apr 29, 15 @ 2:07 pm
You’ve seen him run, set aside a lot of extra time.

If you put a drink in front of him he will run a lot faster!!

“Olsick Bachelor Party”. Is that how you feel AFTER you wake up married?

That’s right You have been busy forcin’ some poor intern into countin’ Mike Madigan votes — groundbreakin’ journalism ain’t what is used to be

The least we could do is give him a little time on the Stud Farm before sending him to the Glue Factory.
Just don’t tell the mares.

I predict that Danzig Moon will win the Triple Crown this year.

Reminds me of the time several years ago when State Sen. Sam Vadalabene (Edwardsville) was at Fairmount Park racetrack to watch a horse named Senator Sam owned by a friend race. Before the race Sen. Sam (the politician) after a few beers decided he wanted to be the jockey for Sen. Sam (the horse) but was eventually persuaded that was not possible (although he was diminutive enough to be a jockey). The horse was just one of many namesakes for the senator along with buildings, streets, bike paths,etc. As I recall although Sen. Sam the politician never lost an election, Sen. Sam the horse never won a race (perhaps if Sen. Sam had been allowed to ride him maybe he would have). So maybe someday Rich Miller will get to ride Rich Miller

“With low bets like these, how can you lose?”
“Rich Miller, renowned harness race driver, hangs up his beard.”
Cut off from the program, is a request from Balmoral for customers to contact their legislators to allow installation of mechanical slot machines to compete with all of the illegal casinos.
