KaPOOOOF, KaBang, KaCrunch, KaWhammo, is right, I asked for the day off and won. lol

The oops my splitter is dragging under the car is the one radio message I don't want to hear! Or, his wing flew off and put a hole in my radiator and the water temp is 270.

BAM! BIFF! POW! WHAM!

[SouthTexas]

Well, the State of Texas and the coastal Bend in particular, thanks you for your contributions to our economy.

One thing I heard is that due to the front end clearance with the new gadget, they are going to have to go with a firmer front end. Something like a 1.5" "give" as opposed to the normal 4".

Wonder how that will affect the handle?

[SouthTexas]

You sure got up early for that one!

[tubebender]

I would really like to inform you that only the gainfully employed pay taxes but judging from the checks I write to the IRS every three months that would be a dishonest statement... >>>:O

Glock gave me a copy of the software he used for proxy posting and I told whom to pick the rest of the year.

As a point of information to all ya Gear Heads, Hey Wan Mantoba is racing today. You don't have to thank me right now...

Let's remember the soldiers today. Thanks to all who serve and prayers for those who have died. Many prayers to all the families of those fallen and those injured.
There is a special place in heaven for these brave men and women.




Benbrook Family Mourns Fallen Soldier

A North Texas family learned this weekend their 23-year-old son was one of the latest casualties in Iraq.

"He was just a person you liked to be around. Craig knew he was going to Iraq when he signed up," the family's pastor Carroll Smith said. "He thought America had a moral obligation in birthing a new democracy."

Officials said Spec. Lance Springer II of Benbrook was killed by an explosive Friday in Iraq.

The Army medic treated wounded from both sides of the war, his family said shortly after they learned of the loss of their son.

The 23-year-old joined the military two and a half years ago hoping to work on Humvees, his family said.

"He believed in what he was doing and he was willing to put his life on the line for it," his father, Lance Springer said.

His father will always remember the Iraqi children his son met. The elder Springer said there was one boy in particular who represents many.

"He's going to be able to vote for his own president because of what our service people have gone over there to do," he said.

Smith praised the younger Springer and called him "a good Christian young man. The kind you want your daughter to meet."

"I was planning on marrying him. But, I guess now I'll bury him."

[SouthTexas]

I don't root for nobody from Canaduh either!

[SouthTexas]

Prayers for his family.

[SouthTexas]

[tubebender]

We are so sorry to hear this. It just takes the oxygen out of the room...

I just knew they would go and do this.............

RIR to remain an impound race: Nextel Cup teams better make good use of their car of tomorrow test April 3-4 at Richmond International Raceway because they won't get separate qualifying and race practice when they go there for the May 4-5 race weekend. Richmond remains an impound race, just as it was for both races last year, NASCAR spokesman Kerry Tharp said Friday. The Friday-Saturday schedule of the Richmond weekend allows for the impound procedure - where there is no practice between qualifying and the race - to make the schedule a little less hectic. While Richmond remains an impound race, when the teams go the following week to Darlington Raceway, they will not have their cars impounded. Darlington was not an impound race last year. Darlington also will be a COT race, and that will be the first COT race at a track longer than a mile [1.36miles].(SceneDaily.com)(3-25-2007)
