Good for you, Bill! It's difficult enough to pick one, much less the top 3. Hope whoever hit it had it bet really well.

It was a friend of mine, he bet $100. He bought drinks and dinner for us (3) friends. Thanks for the visit and comments, Lin, and thanks for the visits to my wife, Sara's poetry. Have a pleasant weekend, my friend. Bill
