A couple weeks ago I posted these comments about Flipper -- "I don't know anyone who considers him their favorite driver, but I also don't know anyone who dislikes him." No one commented back.

So I am going to post this pic and see what people say now --

[SouthTexas]

Will be in and out this weekend, it's our county fair and son is coming down.

If it doesn't snow here tonight it's going to miss it's best chance in 15 years. It's 35 and partly cloudy. There is a 1/2 inch of hail and sleet on the deck.

I'm sick of this stinkin weather. My wife and son are going to Las Vegas next week for a trade show and what ever you do in Vegas...

[Pete-R-Bilt]

Your welcome, I drew the bulk of the storm away from you and fought it ALL the way home this week, INCLUDING the 30 to 50 mph cross winds.

ice skated from Fernley to Salt Lake, the news said there was 196 accidents and slide offs...

I love my auto-chains had to use them more comming home this week than the rest of the winter combined.

My daughter went to see the race in Vegas this weekend.

bummin cuz of the weather but happy to be at a race!

I'm off to Twin Falls to play in the poop again, see y'all tonight, as it were...

[WestCoastGal]

Be careful out there Pete and I hope your daughter has a great time at the race.

Page bump for a dialup FRiend. Something on that first page just keeps loading and loading and loading.

[tubebender]

I had that problem yesterday on my Cox broadband on all 6 of my browsers? It gets really ugly here as I try to Snipe a few items on eBay.

Last year I had the loading problem on the Nascar threads. Tell your FRiend to empty the cache often.

Getting ready to head out to the track for some practice and qualifying.

Local weather forecast is less than desirable - wind chill of 37 right now, calling for am thunderstorms. Not good for tomorrow - rain most of the day, winds to 25 mph and cold. Sunday looks better - no rain but still cold and windy.

Who cares, Nascar is in town!

The boy had his picture taken with Reed Sorensen last night, he was excited about that. I felt sorry for Reed - cold, windy and he is in a tee shirt. Nice guy.

[LasVegasMac]

WCG - see my #53.

Yes, they are calling for snow on Saturday, but only a few flakes on the west side (mountain side) of the valley. Track in on the east side - lower.

Still, that means it is going to be cold. Also supposed to be very windy. The track is on the northern edge of the valley, nothing else out there - and nothing to stop the wind.

Never thought I'd use my USAF artic parka again!

Can't wait.

[AGreatPer]

"Never thought I'd use my USAF artic parka again!"

That just sounds so funny in the middle of the desert in Vegas.

Have fun!!

BTW, its 70 F here in Hershey. Wierd weather.

[fideist]

Photo Shopped?

Nope. He said in an interview on Nascar.Com that he walked into the photoshoot, they asked him to disrobe, a lady sprayed him with something, they took eight pictures, and he was done.

[WestCoastGal]

You and that young man have a blast!!

Wild party last night at the Bud Last Stand. I will post it later if I can.

[WestCoastGal]

Weather and garage watch

[SouthTexas]

I know I've asked you to send the rain, but please do not send the cold. You can keep the snow for that matter too. :)

You should have gone with them early and caught the race!
