Good morning...
Just a quick post to wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
I would like to thank all of you for your support and ideas over the last year.
Whilst working on a review of the current strategy for Place Profits, I have come across something very interesting and I shall be spending some of my time, over the next few days, investigation what happens when a top rated horse is top rated on both Focus Ratings (R4) and Advance Ratings.
So far, the results look almost too good to be true.
However, I imagine that, as well as that, there will be plenty of eating and drinking to do.
Something to make you smile...
Mother Superior...
As she passed the young novices, Mother Superior said, "Good morning, ladies," and the novices replied, "Good morning, Mother Superior. May God be with you."
But once they were past, she heard one novice say to another, "She got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning."
Mother Superior was surprised, but decided not to pursue it.
Soon she passed two sisters who had taught there for years. They exchanged pleasantries, but again she heard them whisper, "She got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning."
She wondered if she had been harsh with them and vowed to be more pleasant.
Down the hall came retired Sister Mary. They exchanged greetings but Sister Mary added right to her face, "Looks like you got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning."
Mother Superior was floored. "Sister Mary, what have I done wrong? Three times this morning someone has said that about me."
Sister Mary looked Mother Superior in the eye. "Oh dear, don't take it personally. It's just that you're wearing Father Murphy's slippers!"
The Eternal Optimist
Three friends had a good friend named Joe and he was, naturally, an eternal optimist.
At every bad situation he would always say "It could have been worse."
His friends hated that quality about him, so they came up with a story so horrible that not even Joe could come up with a bright side.
So the next day, only two of his friends showed up for a golf date.
Joe asked, "Where's Gary?"
And one of his friends said, "Didn't you hear? Yesterday, Gary found his wife in bed with another man, shot them both, and then turned the gun on himself."
Joe says,"Well it could have been worse."
Both his friends said, "How in hell could it be worse? Your best friend just killed himself!"
Joe says, "If it had happened two days ago, I'd be dead now!"
Today
Whatever you are up to today...
Stay safe and healthy.
As always...
My kindest regards
