I might even go down for the winged show Friday night, as well as the non wing on Saturday, but don't tell anyone. The last time I saw wings on that track was when SCOA was there some years ago. That time I just wanted to see Rickey Hood run. I'd seen him spanking the boy's at Duke City in Albuquerque when I was there, and he also ran the first show (Woo) at Hollywood Hills before I moved back over... I just like his style no matter what he's in. This time I'm just bored, but if Johnny Herrera show's, he'll kick a**!
Half the lies they tell about me aren't true.

Oh I've been to that track plenty, and this year, but they won't let me take in my pop, because they sell that!... So if I relapse after 11 years, that is 11 years this time...... I'll do it at Canyon.
