My mom just told me that our cousins* have three horses in the Derby this year! None of them terribly high-ranked, but hey. :)

* The sort you see maybe once every decade or so. XD

Sure! I've been basking in unearned reflected glory for two days. XD

I've forgotten the exact way in which the Casners are related to Mom, except that he's always been "Cousin Billy" to her, despite his wishes to be called "Bill". :D I don't think he's a first cousins to her, but the relation is close enough that when she talks to her cousin Janelle, what the Casners have been doing is included in all the family gossip. I might have met them once or twice, at a family wedding or funeral, but it's been at least a decade.

(edited for slight clarification of relatives XD)
