My ...Yes, can't you see the family resemblance? My brother has been a bum at the track for the last 40 years and every time I see him it is always the same. "Hey buy me a drink" or "Hey who you got today in the feature?" or "Can I borrow $50? I got the winner, I swear it. I'll pay you back when the race is over. You gotta let me have a stake for my bets today!" So it is always the same crap. I ask him to come home and clean up and get on the straight path in life and he tells me to pound sand. It's tragic really. But if you don't know how to gamble, this is the result. I went to the Fairgrounds in New Orleans and he was there. I saw him all the way out in L.A. How he gets around I do not know. He was at Churchill Downs for the Breeder's Cup last November. My mother still cries over him. I still love him, but it is sad when I see him.Randall Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10027493610187640456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7590806168352381335.post-88572535484508594432011-03-21T12:30:47.257-04:002011-03-21T12:30:47.257-04:00What do you exactly mean by your brother asking yo...What do you exactly mean by your brother asking you $50 bucks?
