On June 2^nd I made some comments regarding the upcoming poker ride/derby that will be held again this year at the home of Elroy Karius on the weekend of July 23-25^th 2010. 

I spoke about them having all the permits in regards to this event, because of the unease of Laurie Takoff . She was upset that they were hosting this event next to her place of business and home.

Laurie, in no way did I mean to slander your name or business; I apologize to you and Brian.  All I really meant to say, was they have their permits in order to go ahead with this event, I should never have mentioned anyone by name, especially as there were more than you who had issues with this event.

Again, my apologies.
