B. The Mrs. would be be more likely to climb Mount Everest with me than to watch anything on TeeVee with me, if I had one.
Toddling about in the middle of the night, fulfilling my Nurse Ratched fantasies, I peeped and saw the Tar Smokers jumped four places into 7th. Biffle hurt a lot of teams. He was the smart pick, I was too ignerant to pick him, and it worked out.

Junior fans boo Kyle Busch
May 11, 2008
As expected, Kyle Busch was raucously booed during driver introductions Saturday, when fans made it loud and clear how they felt about his late-race accident last week in Richmond that might have cost Dale Earnhardt Jr. a win.
But NASCAR’s newest villain took it all in stride, enticing the crowd to keep it coming by raising his arms in the air and cupping his ear as he passed by the stands on the back of a pickup truck.
As the truck rounded Turn 1, a member of Earnhardt’s crew rushed to the pit road wall to jeer Busch on his way by, and the driver responded by turning and flipping his middle finger at him. Crew members up and down pit road marveled at Busch’s bravado, while Earnhardt’s No. 88 team simply smirked as he passed by.

It couldn’t have been too bad. I didn’t see any full cans or bottles of beer raining down like they did to Flash Gordon a couple of years ago...
Mooresville/Concord area just dodged the bullet they were under tornado warning for the past hour. Most of the worst went below Mooresville and Lake Norman.
Flyers and Penguins up.
I worked most of the day. :(
End of One
One UP!, mid 2nd.
1 - 1 tie 8:30 2nd period.
5:12 left in the 2nd.
TWO UP, End of 2nd.
The Penguins management were confronted with a dilemma before tonights game. After the game with the Pirates and Braves was rained out today and will play a double header tomorrow, both teams asked if they could go to the hockey game.
No seats remained, what to do? They worked it out by placing several baseball players in the corporate box sections. The corporate people were pleased to pack their 18 seat areas to accommodate about 25. One boss said, we will work it out.
“THIS WILL BE MY FINAL NASCAR THREAD REGARDING NASCAR ON FREE REPUBLIC.”
Hmmm. Maybe that means those of us (plural) who were previously driven off by WCG can finally come back.
Hee....hhhee...heee...much deservedly.
I caught Windtunnel tonite, and DD showed the video that FOX would not, that rain of can's, bottles, and a cooler or two. The funniest---a can of warm Busch beer with a couple of punctures spewing away on the asphalt with anger! LOL!

What I watched on WT tonite was about 10x the trash, so this is a case where the camera lens doesn't tell the full story.
Where are the spare parts? Did she get a shot of all the spare parts?
