Allah bless you, Syfy Channel! While the One-Eyed Pug clamors belligerently for another jeroboam of Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label around 2 a.m. PST, an hour when most sane and sober canines are paying tribute to Hypnos and Morpheus, you provide us pictures of the beautiful and talented (and dark-haired) Spence School alumna Elizabeth Montgomery prancing around in a miniskirt and boots. Thank you, thank you, thank you!<\/p>\n

Other top episodes are “A Most Unusual Camera” and “The Last Night of a Jockey”, starring an angry and one-and-only Mr. Joseph Yule Jr.<\/p>\n

And this extra for experts: If intemperate humans need to ingest the hair of the dog to get through the next morning, do drunk dogs have to bite the hair of the human? Just wondering.<\/p>\n

Free<\/a> ones<\/strong>: <\/p>\n

Aqueduct<\/strong> 1, 3, 5
\nGulfstream<\/strong> 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9
\nSanta Anita<\/strong> 2, 6, 7, 9<\/p>\n

Our fondest hope that we ring-in 2012 the same way we bid farewell to 2011. These opportunities should deliver every possible chance of that.<\/p>\n

Pay-side: For your looming holiday racing week<\/a>. Today…<\/p>\n

Turfway<\/strong> 1, 4, 9
\nFair Grounds<\/strong> 5, 8, 9, 10
\nTurf Paradise<\/strong> 2, 6, 8
\nSunland<\/strong> 8, 9, 10
\nGolden Gate<\/strong> 6, 8, 9<\/p>\n

Nice everywhere, and give it up for Sunland and the ’Gate; they get into the act too!<\/p>\n

WMF Report<\/strong>: <\/p>\n

Speed<\/em>
\nGulf 6f
\nLos Al (zOMG!) 4½f
\nSunland 6f
\nTurf Paradise 5½f, 6f<\/p>\n

Nocturnal Submission<\/strong>: Night off. <\/p>\n

Thank you. Best wishes. Happy New Year, and kindly join us again tomorrow for a special Monday edition of “First Post”, plus another rollout of your favourite feature, “Monday Boxing”. Until such time, and for the first time in 2012, it’s goodbye. Bye-bye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
