Seriously? I put Falco just for you because I thought this was one of your stock OHW rants about how Falco was better. It was just a guess anyway, going from the German. I almost put Taco, because I always get those two mixed up, that probably would have gotten me some f'in Beiber points.......

See? Logic is never the way to go on a Mel Brooks question. I should have just stuck with my favourite number. Which, despite common thought, is not 33. It's 7. My favourite quinela to play at the dog track was always a 5-7 which, coincidentally enough, is statistically the longest shot on the board. At least it was back when they used to print the quinela odds history in the programs. I don't know if they still do that any more, or if they even have programs these days.......
