Ahhh – Jumpmoose.\u00a0 One of my most favorite people that I have never met.\u00a0 Of course it is the name and\u00a0I wish I had thought to ask him the story behind the name because I am sure that there is one. It certainly\u00a0has fed my imagination for several years.\u00a0\u00a0Jumpmoose has been with the Sim for a long time but only runs a\u00a0few stables and is not a member of any residency although any residency would be lucky to have him.\u00a0 He does post to the messageboards now and then\u00a0and\u00a0although he seems to prefer being low key – I am glad he decided to participate in my Snapshot series.\u00a0 Here is Doug’s snapshot.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/DIV>
<\/FONT><\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>

First name?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Doug.
<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

How long have you been in the Sim?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Since week 495.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/o:p><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

Favorite food?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Roast beef with Yorkshire pudding.
<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

Dog or cat?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Dog — in fact, on balance, I like dogs better than I like people!
<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

If you were to take a solo road trip which would you rather drive – a convertible or a motorhome?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Motorhome.
<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

Hobby – other than horseracing?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Sportsbetting — the Betfair exchange almost is enough to make me a religious man.
<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

Favorite band or singer?<\/STRONG><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

The Band.
<\/SPAN><\/P><\/o:p><\/SPAN>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

Last book you read?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

David Hume’s, A Treatise of Human Nature. I always seem to have 3 or 4 books on the go.
<\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

What’s playing in your cd player or Ipod right now?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Neil Young is in the CD player. I haven’t made my way up to Ipod yet!
<\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

If you were stuck in a hospital room for 6 months and could chose one person, past or present, other than husband\/wife, relative or in-law,\u00a0to be in the bed next to you – who would it be?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

Six months is such a long time, hmm. I guess I would choose someone like Marco Polo, who could entertain me with endless stories about exotic places — as long as he came with a translator. It would be unnerving to have someone yabbering away in Italian for 6 months . . .
<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

Favorite real life racehorse?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

A.P. Indy. Won the Belmont with Eddie D. aboard on the day my daughter was born in 1992.
<\/SPAN><\/P>

<\/STRONG><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>

If you could meet one person in the Sim – who would it be?<\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P>

The elusive Labreche.
