Mama turned to Me last night and asked “Who’s Pit Crew will get stolen this time?”.

The Gas Man stopped when He was told to by The Little WEASEL.

Mornin’ ma!

I’ve got an iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.4. It takes good pics, but when you zoom in, and you’re being jostled by 1000’s of yer closest friends, images get a little blurred.

Did ya get my FReepmail?

I talk to myself too but only because my hearing is getting so bad I can’t understand anyone and I haven’t mastered lip-reading yet.

Say it ain’t so - rain is very possible Sunday:

Nationwide Qualifying is under a RED FLAG due to rain.

They got Q1 in and I’m guessing they would line up on that if total rainout.
