Mornin Y'all!
Cool video, Michelle. You've got much larger juevos than me. I would have bailed as soon as I let go of the button. I don't spend a lot of time on FB.
Everybody have a gooden! Mike quit your whining!

Afternoon all! Monday is dragging but almost through, whew. 4th round Saturday, 3rd yesterday, losing to Christine's son Joey in a close one, .056 for him, .060 for me, caught him, took out 3mph, crossed by .016, he was under by .001, I was under by .021. I needed to give him the stripe by .005 to win. Joey went on to win, and took over the points lead in the process with 3 to go. I'm 5 points behind him in 4th, good tight race will go down to the last day.

Hi Mike! US Nationals specials week, mmm mmmm! Looks like I'm last in, so I'm taking the rest of the bacon.

Cool sportsman move at PRP yesterday. The young man in 3rd, Joey Pinskey, badly sprained his ankle after the first time trial. Went to the hospital for xrays, make sure ligaments were not torn, etc. He was coming back as our class was running, and just a couple minutes away as we got down to the last 3 cars, Joey P, me, and Josh Rietchsa. I was the bye, so Josh had to race Joey if he was back, or me - he wasn't going to have a broke bye. So Josh said he'd wait for Joey to get back. Track officials told me to start suiting up in case, but Joey made it. What did Josh get for his sportsmanship? A loss. But, he came back through reentry to make it to the final against Joey D, and, he made it to the final in Top class in his dragster. Good karma for a classy act.

tight points battle Chuck, good luck we're pulling for you!! I like Karma, she kicks tail

blonde joke I saw on fb..

The boss, feeling sorry for her, says, 'Why don't you go home for the
Day? Take the day off to relax & rest.' 'Thanks, but I'd be better off here.
I need to keep my mind off it &I have the best chance of doing that here.'
The boss agrees &... allows the blonde to work as usual.
A couple of hours pass & the boss decides to check on the blonde.
He looks out from his office & sees the blonde crying hysterically...
'What's so bad now? Are you gonna be okay?' he asks. 'No!' exclaims the blonde.
'I just received a horrible call from my sister. Her mother died, too!'

Morning everyone.
I got my surgery rescheduled to Sept. 15th. I was going to miss taking my son to watch my Florida State Seminoles invade Norman and take on the Oklahoma Sooners. I just couldn't let that happen.
Y'all have a good one.

Mornin' all! Over center day, hoping the weather is going to cooperate for this weekend. 2 days of racing, can't wait! I can't believe it's September 1 already either.

Hi Mike! I thought maybe you went with hard boiled eggs, because some of those Super Stocker require some juevos to drive! Pittsburgh is a little big town, which is one of the things I love about it. I don't know the little girl, but my mom is a friend of her mom.

Mouse, you threw me off... I thought you'd be pulling for the Sooners.

Oh no. Not a Sooner fan, Can't stand them. Can't stand the Big 12 for that matter.
I became a Florida State fan back in the late 70's early 80's because i've always liked the state of Florida, and i liked Bobby Bowden.

Old Butch

John was in the fertilized egg business.

He had several hundred young layers (hens), called 'pullets,' and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs.

He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced.

This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters.

Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing.

Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells.

John's favorite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all!

When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover.

To John's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring.

He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.

John was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Saint Lawrence County Fair and he became an overnight sensation among the judges.

The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the "No Bell Piece Prize," but they also awarded him the "Pulletsurprise" as well.

Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making. Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the unsuspecting populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention.

Vote carefully this fall, the bells are not always audible.
