Snow Angels in Bristol

I have to admit that I loved Kurt Busch's Finish Line Snow Angels. Very appropriate and unique celebration. Several of the weekend's events were cancelled due to snow. I laughed when he dropped on the Finish line and proceeded to create a snow angel. Watching him in the Blue Deuce at Bristol was almost like watching Rusty. That car with Rusty and Kurt Busch in his old ride have both been very successful there. Putting the most dominate driver at Bristol in the most dominate car at Bristol almost didn't seem fair to the competitors. Busch got into trouble early when he cut a tire, going a lap down. He made up the deficit, getting back on the lead lap and eventually began to challenge for the lead. He had to punt Matt Kenseth for the pass but all's fair. As the saying goes, rubbin is racin. The rub on Matt's back bumper was enough to move him up the track but not spin him out. Kurt took over the lead and won the race. The battles didn't end with the wave of the checkered flag. Kenseth showed Kurt what he thought of the rub. He drove up next to Kurt's car and showed his appreciation by swerving towards him. Jeff Gordon then shared his thoughts with Matt. Matt wanted to apologize to Jeff for spinning him out. Jeff let Matt know what he thought of the apology by shoving Matt. The emotions that spill out off the track is the icing on the cake. The speed, the cars, the smells, the skill of the drivers as they regain control of the car, is the actual cake. That's why I love NASCAR.

Bit by a Gator

I've been running with a group at Footworks across from Sunset Place. I've been thinking about someone while I wait for the run to start. I guess being around Sunset Place is reminding me of her. That's where she called me 'Mr. Suarez' in such a seductive way and it's also where I think we kissed for the first time.

Today I logged onto Match.com and saw she's back on there and that she looked at my profile. What's it mean? Does it mean I should say Hello to her? I really do but what if she just clicked and wasn't really interested in meeting me again?

I've answered my own question. I know I should say Hello. But wouldn't it be nice for her to say Hey since she was the one who broke it off with me? I'll give her a couple days and see what transpires.

African-American NASCAR driver Bill Lester drives for Waste Management

Yes, sometimes the jokes just write themselves. This weekend, I noticed that African-American race car driver Bill Lester drives a truck sponsored by Waste Management. Black and drives a truck with "Waste Management" printed on its side. If this world was not so PC there would be a ton of jokes flying around about this.

Hypocrite

Yes, it's deleted. I realized I was not following my own advice by having posted it.

You live, you learn

I was just informed that maybe I should go check out my old home. Looks like I am not welcomed there anymore. It's ok. The Nardozzi clan can post away, gratifying each others' needs and not truly expressing how they really feel. Melissa can go and and on how she is chasing boys and how she is fat and how she can't get a man. Funny, I never heard Liz complain about Melissa's sexually oriented posts.

Whatever.

Diane forgives JTO (Johnny the O), Yuri, Mats, and Michael too. I guess pulled a worse stunt than any of the aforementioned? If she didn't want to have me on the Blog anymore she could have just told me straight up. We've been friends for awhile and been rather honest with each other for her to have done it this way.

You live, you learn, you move on.

Like Riding a Bike

I feel a little guilty. I left an old friend abandoned. I moved my diggs to a new place. I was over at a multi-user blog for a few months. Well, like with everything, it's over. You put different personalities and differing opinions into the same room and sparks are bound to fly. Well, they did. And boy did they! I contemplated expressing myself back in this blog for a couple days. Am I up for this? I really hate the design. I loved the design of the old multi-blog. You could, in laymen's, hit NEXT through each of the posts and similarly through all the comments. It was unique and usually something interesting to read. But like all good things, it comes a time when it must come to an end. The site had to be shutdown. Friendships were at risk. There are those couple things you never want to discuss, religion and politics. If I had to pick which of these two brought the site down, I would guess Religion. The multi-blog is not a uni-blog. Me? I've moved back in here. Hopefully I am still welcomed back into my home.

Just a boy playing with his little cars

Funny, growing up I used to have an endless amount of Hot Wheels. I never thought to collect them. Now, some 25 years later, I wish I had the money and the space to start collecting some of these. The space would be coming soon. I should be moving into my apartment any time now. The money is what is harder to come by. The Carl Edwards Office Depot Owner Series one will run me about 100 bucks. Throw in the autographed display case for another 40 and you can see how quickly this collection can empty out my bank account. If you consider there are 5 drivers on the Roush team. And you consider the cars run about 70 to 100 bucks each. Then just collecting 1 car from each of my Roush boys will be around 500 buckaroonies. Man it sucks being broke.

Can't wait for September 1st!!!

I received some good news today. NASCAR 06: Total Team Control will be released on September 1st! I can hardly contain my excitement. This lastest version of the game finally takes the "team" aspect of race car driving into consideration. Using a headset you can give VOICE commands to your Crew Chief and to the rest of your team. You can also use the right analog stick to send commands to your teammates.

You can tell your crew chief to change all four or just the left sides, tell him to put in a round of wedge, ask him for some stickers, or for scuffs. I actually do not know just how many voice commands the crew chief understands but these are all rather basic.

I can't wait!

How the fuck isn't it apparent?

You want to print the entire help document. You push the Print button. Windows presents you with a dialog box and asks Do you wish to print the current topic or do you want to print the current topic and all of its sub-topics?

Apparently it isn't apparent that to print the entire help document you select the option to print the current topic and ALL OF ITS SUB-TOPICS!!!

Here's your sign.

I woke up Drunk

It was 7:30am when I rolled out of bed to realize that I was still drunk. We went to Mr. Moe's last night. I only had 4 beers and 2 shots of Patron. I will leave the detail that two of those beers were the big Mr. Moe sized mugs out of this story. Oh, and I will also neglect to mention that the shot glasses seemed larger than normal. The gym is going to suck arse. The trainer is going to punish me and it's going to hurt.
