This website is dedicated to the memory of  our "Popsie Lopsie," who was also known as "Mr. Crusty."  He left us an enduring legacy of a life well lived.  He was generous, kind, loving, realistic, committed, honest, tough when he needed to be, and oh so funny.  His spirit now lives on in our "Mums" and in us, "The BAGFNY."   And even though we know that we can never come close to our "Popsie Lopsie's" most exemplary life,  we have picked up where he left off as best we can.  That's what he would have wanted us to do, and we're doing it with all our might.  "Our "Popsie Lopsie" ran with patience the race that was set before him, (Hebrews 12:1)(KJV), and we can do no less.  It has been left to us to finish his work.  Never an hour goes by that we don't think of him.  We will always miss him.

We, the Boys And Girls From New York
want to bid you welcome to our new Delphi Forum. Our mission, if that's what you want to call it, is to educate and inform on any subject that happens to pop into our minds, and we won't mind at all if you are entertained a tiny bit in the process!! Speaking of minds, it's difficult to believe, but we've heard that some folks say, that horse brains are only the size of a walnut, but of course,  we don't believe a word of it. So now, it's time to just "buckle up for safety," and take off on our latest adventure. Welcome aboard and hold on tight. As our "Popsie Lopsie" would have said, "wheels are in the well." That's Navy talk, you know, and our "Popsie Lopsie" could do "Navyspeak" better than just about anybody.

And Just Who Are The Boys And Girls From New York?

My name is Limone Forte, and I have been asked by my brothers and sisters to make the introductions.

Some of you may remember us from our earlier journals, but for those of you whom we haven't yet met, most of us are OTTB'S (off the track thoroughbreds,) who would have been Christmas lunch on a French dining table in 2006 had we not been rescued from a killpen in New York.  That's how we got our name. Not all of us were rescued from slaughter, and not all of us are OTTB'S, although everyone wishes they were!! Some of us just found ourselves in unfortunate situations of one kind or another. By divine intervention, that's what Blue Mesa calls it, and she's older and wiser you know, our "Popsie Lopsie" and our "Mums" found us and brought us home with them to live happily ever after...and we did, too, almost. Please excuse me, but Blue Mesa says that I can't tell the whole story right here, right now. So, without further to do, or is that adieu, or is it without further ado? Well, Samson says, "WHO CARES," and I agree.  So on with the show, or I guess I should say on with the journal.
