Just ran across this awesome fact.
Every horse in 2025 Kentucky Derby is descendant of legendary Triple Crown winner.
QuoteAll 19 horses in Saturday's 151st running of the Kentucky Derby are descendants of the great Secretariat, according to a report by the Louisville Courier Journal. A search of pedigrees found that each horse has some relation to Secretariat, who set the fastest Derby time ever in 1973 on his way to the Triple Crown.
Secretariat sired more than 660 registered foals in his lifetime, with several such sires or dams showing up in each Kentucky Derby horse's pedigree. While most present day race horses have an all-time great somewhere in their pedigree, it worked out this year that every single horse has some link to Secretariat -- whether through Weekend Surprise, A.P. Indy, Terlingua, Storm Cat or others.
The horses in this year's Derby vary from fourth to seventh generation descendants of Secretariat, who was bred from 1974 until his death in 1989. The last of Secretariat's sires were born in 1990."It's one of those stats," Whit Beckman, trainer for Flying Mohawk, told the Courier Journal. "It's bound to happen at some point with how much he shows up in every single pedigree. It's really cool. Very cool."
Among the notable sires of Secretariat included Risen Star, who won the 1988 Preakness and Belmont Stakes, and Lady's Secret who won Horse of the Year honors in 1986.

Lost my dog of almost 15 years (June) this weekend. Ran off at the ranch he's enjoyed for most of his life and never looked back. Searched day and night until I had to quit. Tough pill. I hate that this is how it ended, but maybe he knew better. RIP Kaiser Maiser.
Took this during the search. That's how I feel. Don't care if understand.

Fyre Festival 2’s fate in turmoil after ‘postponed’ message is deleted from website: ‘This has to be a joke’
By Connor Surmonte

QuoteDéjà vu.
Ticketholders who planned to attend Billy McFarland’s controversial Fyre Festival 2 next month were left in a state of panic on Wednesday after its official website posted – and then deleted – an announcement saying the event was postponed.
“Fyre 2 Festival is postponed and will be rescheduled for a later date in the future,” the now-deleted statement read, per The Sun. “If you have purchased tickets already, you will receive an email once the new date is confirmed.”The website also said that tickets for the festival, which start at $1,400 and go as high as $1.1 million, were “unavailable.”
However, the official Fyre Festival 2 website was reportedly updated again to make it look as if the initial “postponed” announcement had never appeared.Instead, it insisted that “FYRE Festival 2 is still on” and the organizers were “vetting new locations and will announce our host destination soon.”
“Our priorities remain unchanged,” the latest statement read, per NBC News, “delivering an unforgettable, safe, and transparent experience.”
Still, many rushed to social media to mock the entire ordeal.“Who could have imagined?” one person posted on X. “This has to be a joke,” wrote another.
“Well that’s not good,” a third person tweeted. “Who could have possibly seen this coming?”
“It’s very easy to postpone something that was never gonna happen anyway,” added a fourth.The chaos and confusion on Wednesday came just more than one month before Fyre Festival 2, the successor of the disastrous Fyre Festival in 2017, was set to take place from May 30 to June 2 in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico.
McFarland, who served four years in prison for fraud related to his involvement in the failed Fyre Festival in 2017, first announced his plans for a second attempt in September.
But those plans were cast in doubt in February after Mexican officials said that McFarland, 33, and the event’s other organizers never requested permits.“Due to information circulating in the media regarding the ‘FYRE FESTIVAL II,’ the General Directorate of Tourism of Isla Mujeres informs that no person or company has requested permits from this office or any other Municipal Government department for said event,” the Isla Mujeres government said in a statement on its Facebook page at the time.
Like Fyre Festival 2, the original Fyre Fest promised big-name musicians like Blink-182 and Migos; celebrities like the Hadid sisters and Emily Ratajkowski; fine food; and luxury accommodations.
However, the festival failed miserably and later went viral on social media after both Hulu and Netflix released documentaries about the catastrophe.McFarland was sentenced to six years in prison for his financial crimes, although he only served four years from 2018 to 2022. Prosecutors also revealed that the failed festival cost investors upwards of $26 million.
“This is the most tangible way to repay the $26 million that I owe, and having real partners gives an opportunity in the next five to seven years to actually pay back that $26 million,” McFarland told The Sun last month.
“And unfortunately,” he added, “no one’s offering me $26 million to work somewhere else.” -

6th grade. Pitching in little league. 2nd inning. Sister's hot friend, 3 years the elder, who I dreamt about walks from behind the home side stands sucking on a sharp as a dagger red green and yellow astro pop.
Boner on the mound in front of everyone. Threw a wild pitch to take focus off me, turned and tucked up in my waist band. It was too late. I'd been found out. Luckily my quick thinking minimized the fallout. Wonder what happened to that girl?

Yeah. It's pretty cringe. Guy is constantly trying to losen him up and keep him afloat. I looks unnatural.
