Morning gang,sad day today,9-11 will always be a sad day in the history of our country,like Pearl Harbor,and other times when folks tried to bring this great nation to it's knee,but the only way the bad guys will win,is if we (Americans)stop trying and stop caring,I for one,get tried of all the BS our gov.puts us through,and get tried of the way other countries look over us,when we have troubles,but being one of the Good Lords Children,tells me that being good to others and loving my fellow man and giving him a second chance to do good is the right thing,so knowing that the right way is the best way,I'm a American,and we will come back to the top,no matter what you throw my way,WE (Americans) will survive,and will keep pluggin along,to make a better day for ourselves and our familes and each other,we may not see eye to eye,but we will keep on keeping on,no matter how beat up we get,Praise God he made me a American and Praise God he put me here in Cana,Va.,and put me on this website,with a bunch of God fearing,good pray,praying Folks thats got my back,and thats why I can say I'm proud to be a American....................................

Wooowee,I got wound up,sorry all the word may run together,but you get my meaning,prayers to all,and have a happy Sunday.................................... .....................................

Well, first of all, I would like to thank everyone for all the prayers, kind words, and thoughts.

Then, I would like to apologize for wimpering on the web. I was (and remain) very angry, and shocked by Larry's passing. He was a true American warrior, hero, and all around good guy. There is a big hole in my heart, and not one that will heal easy.

I was going to mention that terrible day 10 years ago, but I still have a lot of unresolved issues on that, and it is better to remain silent for now.

I hope everyone has a good day, and enjoys friends and family. Football is back, and my Packers are not doing real well, but at least they won.

Good morning everybody.
Another Monday is upon us, so let's make the best of it.
Prayers to all.
See ya.

Good morning friends and neighbors,it's getting closer to fall everyday,it's cool here in the mornings and hot in the afternoon,but I'm good with this change................. ...............

Hope everybody had a good fun racing weekend,and got home safely and I know it's monday,but we are above ground,and got our freedom to do what we want,well almost,so lets put rubber to the road,pencil to paper,toliet paper to,well you get the point,I know TMI,hope ya'll's monday is fine and prayer out to all and God Bless America................. ...........................................

Mornin' all. Monday, woo.

Ken, very sorry for your loss. I don't think any of us consider that wimpering. We can all understand that kind of hole in your heart, and how hard that is to heal.

WAO, sincere thanks for the kind words. I think you nailed it, about this thread, and I also feel blessed and fortunate to be a part of it.

Yesterday was hard for me to deal with. I couldn't even watch the Steeler game, which apparently was a blessing of its own. I watched a lot of the specials on 9/11. I don't want to ever forget those that lost their lives that day, or their friends and families. Every day when I come in to work, and leave, I look up at the flag, as my way of remembering them. I remember all those people who put posters up in the days following, looking for their loved ones. Then hearing some of the voicemails from those calling from the towers, and Flight 93, just so sad. I felt like I had to mourn yesterday. I remember everything I felt that day, like those 3000 were my own family. I like the memorial pools at the WTC site. Paul/434olds, the company he works for made the panels with the names on them. I am proud the way the country came together, donated blood, took care of each other. I am always proud to be an American.

Karen updated the CarePage this morning too.

I agree with all of what you guys said about 9/11........... I still can not believe it happened, much less that it was 10 years ago...

WAO, thanks so much and you are quite accurate about our little family....

Well it was a cool morning here too, and I also will not complain, i kinda like it!

Ken it is NEVER whimppering or complaining on this thread....Some pepole leave holes that never fully heal, I think we all have a few of those so you came to the right place to have friends listen, care and pray for you....

Well I hope this is a super Fabulous week for all of us....

Good morning everyone. Ken, you are not whimpering when you post with the morning crew, we are here for each other through good & bad. I can completely understand the way you are feeling, as I lost a good friend of 40 years to a heart attack a little over a week ago. We had his memorial yesterday and almost the whole gang was back together for a short time to celebrate his life. Wade was a big man hence his nickname Moose, who had a huge heart and a gentle soul. My comfort is, I know he is in a better place and he will live forever in my heart.

I watched a little of the 9/11 coverage yesterday morning and it brought back all the feelings of horror & sadness I felt on that day. Especially moving was the speech by the little boy whose father was killed in the towers just before he was born. It had me crying like a baby.

WA thanks for the kind words. I'm glad I could be of some help to you.

Mike, how are Mom & Aunt Barb? Sounds like Mannie is doing better in school, good to hear. Keeping you all in my prayers.

Floyd, are we going to be seeing you in Vegas for the ET Finals?

Chuck, Christine, Michelle, Mouse, Nicole and everyone else.

Hugs & Prayers all around.

Mornin Y'all!
Ken, we've all had our tragedies and have helped each other out greatly. Don't ever feel,bad about asking for prayers and thoughts on this sight. We offer all the strength we can give and also ask for all the strength others can give. Don't give it another thought.
I'm still working on it, Susie. I'm sitting back waiting for the team captain to fill all the spots. Last week she said she had 2 that hadn't answered and if they didn't answer by Friday I was on. I still haven't heard from her. I'm already, got a room, extra bottle of scotch, racer dogs and tortillas, what more do I need.
Y'all have a gooden.
Ken, extra

Good morning gang.

Howdy folks,pretty morning here,it would be real hard to have a bad morning as pretty as it is,off to see Mannies Dr. he's been doing good at school,and he's started praticing football,so life is good on his end...................... .................

Susie thanks for asking about Mom and Aunt Barb,Barbs still in the nursing home,trying to regain use of he leg after the hip surgrey,and Mom is having trouble with her blood thinning meds.kinda like Guy use to tell us about,so all prayers appricated for both of them........................ ...........................

And to the rest of our gang,thanks for the prayers and we'll be praying for ya'll all also,and you are all the best,and ifn I ain't told ya'll lately I love you bunch of knuckle heads,you to Floyd,and I mean it.............. ............ ............ ..........................

Good Morning Dennis, Mike, and all youse guys.

We have a very nice morning here also. Shouldn't get too hot, but it will be very warm.

Drove up to San Antonio for my PET Scan yesterday. It went smoothly . Had some "issues" after, but that went away, so I'am good.

Hope everyone is having a grand day. Ol' what's her name has a long list of chores for me to do, so I won't be bored today.

Well, time to go.

BE OF GOOD CHEER!!!!

Ken Gasbarri

Mornin' all! Nice cool morning, looking like a beautiful day too. We're supposed to cool down after tomorrow, hoping we get test and tune in Thursday night. Temps are predicted to be in the low 60s, which means 50s after the sun sets, and maybe an 11.9x pass for me if I can make it out.

Susie, I saw that boy too, saying he was only in his mom's belly when his father died. That set the waterworks off for me again too. Really sorry to hear about Moose.

Floyd, now I want racer dogs and Mexican food. I can fit a lot into a tortilla.

Hi Mike! Prayers for mom and Aunt Barb. Good to hear Mannie is doing well, and ready for some fooseball.

I hope you get good results, Ken. Keep up the good fight!

You all have a great day!

Morning Gang........

Enough belly aching from me,prayers to all you guys and gals,and have the bestest wed.ever recorded since man has been recording..................... .................................................

Mornin' all! Over center day! Getting a cool down starting overnight tonight, hopefully the rain is out early tomorrow and test and tune with the gamblers is on. Temps when I get to the track will be in the 50s, so I have a shot at my first 11.9x.

Nicole, your team pulled one off in return last night! Though the Cards had some help from the 3rd base umpire.

Time for some over the hump ice cream!

Good Morning gang!! miss you guys, I am going to catch up...lots going on here, appreciate your prayers.
