Boogity!! Go Jr!! Thanks for the ping and good job!
Yay, another race sponsored by a crooked company...
Thanks...
Great pics NYT. ...your quick pics of the action are great.
Glad I had DVR, after a few cocktails and seeing the 42 crash the 18 without touching him, I went to bed a happy camper.
The middle of the pack is no place to be on these super-speedways Jimmy!
This week should be interesting, I think we'll see some 'passion' from the boys.
When's Danica's next race? ...she's growing on me. :)
Do you think anyone else has noticed your graphics on the pit wall...
Oh good, racing in Obama’s town! He grew up a NASCAR fan, you know. When he wasn’t watching the Sox or the Cubs.

The race should be called “Fundamental Transformation of America 400” where the losers become the new winners.
Got it. Going to be a long week, hopefully I won’t lose it. LOL
I didn’t, but I have now! :)
...stay tuned in!
Thanks Grok!
Thank you for the thread, looking forward to a great race; I sure like rac’n on Saturday evening.
After using up a season’s worth of luck last week I’m packing a double parachute for my descent. Please try to slow me down as I pass by.
Notice Grapics?...I doubt anyone even clicks on the links...
Nice page NY :)
Here’s Danica’s schedule -
Patrick plans to participate in Nationwide races at Chicagoland Speedway on July 9; Michigan International Speedway on Aug. 14; Dover, Del., International Speedway on Sept. 25; back in Fontana, Calif., on Oct. 9; Charlotte Motor Speedway on Oct. 15; Gateway International Raceway in Illinois on Oct. 23; Texas Motor Speedway on Nov. 6; Phoenix International Raceway on Nov. 13, and Homestead-Miami Speedway in Florida on Nov.
Welcome. Let’s hope it behaves.
Will Baraq and Blago be riding in the pace car?
What did Tork post at #3?
Just wondering...
Good question, but Blago is already under the Obama Bus, so is unavailable for the race.
Hmmm...thought “Bud” going with KK was a done deal...
It was the winners of the next race and NYT wasn’t on the list...
Thanks. I hate it when that happens.
Behind already this week! LOL
Do watch for others falling faster than you please.
We still have a long way to go, there will be plenty more ups and downs.
The “ups” are exhilarating, the downs make me throw up.
I’m on a rung of a ladder I’ve never been on before. My palms are slick from sweat and my knees are shaking. It’s worse then standing on the skids of a huey w/wet & muddy boots at 1000’ (while getting shot at) like I did in ‘69.
Ever since I responded to an emergency call in the 80’s (man fallen) where a guy slipped off a 6’ ladder, hit his head/fractured his skull and DIED I have disliked heights. I’ll be closer to the ground late Saturday evening.
Ping
-Thank You-
thanks for the link.
that was a bad crash.
Looks like it’s safe to take J.J. this week:

Falling is not an issue, it’s that sudden stop when you hit the ground. ;)
We’re under a flash flood warning until Friday. Sure glad grandsons came to visit yesterday and mowed the yard. :)
I think Alsmorelda is a better driver at this time. Thanks to your tale I had to have EMTs standing by while I climbed a ladder to get some 1X12s out of the rafters in one of my many sheds so I could do a garden project in another shed. You know a man is ready to face his maker when he uses some of the Ancient Vertical Grain All Clear Redwood he has been hoarding since the 60s. I would burn it then let a “friend” tell my widow that he’ll give her 10 bucks for it and take it off her hands...
I think the height-fright matter finally peaked when my (Bandon) pastor assured me that tying two straight ladders together was perfectly safe and talked me into climbing them to change a security light blub. When I was at the top he preceeded to shake the be-jesus outa them; if I hadn’t already accepted Christ as my savior I would have done so then.
Bend is in that window of summer where the highs are in the upper 80’s w/22% humidity and the lows at 38-40. Wish you were here.
Asmorelda hasn’t been up all night w/a crying/hungry baby (not to mention Chandra) so he probably would be a better bet this weekend.
When I was “protecting and serving” I woulda climbed up and got your Redwood for you. What kinda EMT’s you got down there anyway?

We were re-doing the inside of our church once and the preacher walked over and pulled down a scaffold board, laid it out, and walked down it. He said it was an example of faith. Was easy to walk right there, now put it up 25’ on the tops of the scaffold and why does it become a problem? Board is the same.
Sure were a lot of of “uh, mmm, ohs, etc in church that day. :)
Half a yard this morning, the other half submerged.
Yabutt how’s the fishing?
Not quite deep enough for fishing yet. Rained all night, but it comes in waves. Yards almost look “tidal”. LOL
Have your grand kids show you how to take photos with your iPhone and post them. My nephew does it all the time and they are great photos btw. I gotta zip downtown and check on the carpenters...
Good idea. The elder one put my picture on the phone from when we went go-karting. I can take pictures, just don’t know what to do with them after I take them. LOL
