Hmmmm I wonder what happened to him?

Well on another subject, it was a quiet NY eve. Except this morning about 7:30 when I was walking the dogs, two large caliber gumshots rang out!! You can hear them echo, I’m like WTH and was glad I had my red fleece jacket on.

I headed home real quick. Don’t know if it was deer hunters or some kind of NY morning customs here. LOL

We were joking yesterday at work about people’s inability to tell time. Fireworks start at 11:30 and go until 1:00. last night they started at 10:30 and then there was another round at dark tonight.

Maybe your bunch passed out early and it was still new to them this morning? LOL

Hope to get updates tomorrow when they start, thanks for the map, in the meantime.....

An attorney representing Elliott Sadler has filed notice in Iredell County (N.C.) court saying the NASCAR driver intends to claim that Gillett Evernham Motorsports has breached Sadler’s contract to drive the Sprint Cup team’s No. 19 Dodges.

John Buric, Sadler’s lawyer, filed an “application and order extending time to file complaint” Wednesday in Iredell County Superior Court. Sadler has until Jan. 20 to file an actual complaint if the parties cannot reach an agreement on their dispute.

According to the form, Sadler plans to seek “injunctive relief, declaratory relief/specific performance, consequential and punitive damages as a result of Defendants anticipatory and actual breach of Plaintiffs’ Driving Services Agreement. ... Plaintiffs also seek general, consequential, treble and punitive damages, and attorney fees, as a result of Defendants’ tortuous interference ...”

George Gillett, Gillette Evernham Motorsports, Anthony James Allmendinger and Ray Evernham Enterprises are named as defendants.

Buric said Sadler learned on Tuesday that GEM had engaged in negotiations with Allmendinger about driving the No. 19 Dodges in 2009. Buric said there had been “communication” with Sadler earlier, telling him that a change was being considered. But he said Sadler did not know there had been actual negotiations until he received phone calls about media reports that Allmendinger was being lined up to replace him.

“Elliott is ready, willing and able to fulfill his contractual obligations,” Buric said. Sadler earlier this year signed an extension of his contract with GEM that runs through 2010.

“Gillett Evernham Motorsports policy does not allow us to comment on potential or pending legal matters involving the race team,” said Ryan Barry, a spokesman for the organization.

Sadler has three Cup Series victories in 357 career races. He joined Evernham Motorsports in August 2006 to drive the No. 19. He finished 25th in the 2007 driver standings and 24th in 2008.

Allmendinger has made 44 career Cup starts since moving to NASCAR from the Champ Car World Series ranks. He drove in the final five races of the 2008 season in the No. 10 Dodges owned by GEM, finishing 16th or better in four of them.

Ping for wedding news above.

Also Elliott Sadler has a honeymoon registry. LOL there’s a list of gifts at the website...Jr gave them the cocktails of course.

Amanda Prince’s and Elliott Sadler’s Honeymoon Bridal Registry
Emporia, VA
Honeymoon or Wedding Destination: St. Lucia - Anse Chastanet

http://www.dalejrpitstop.com/pb/index-pitboard.html

Thank you so much for visiting our honeymoon registry. After we were engaged, it didn’t take us much time to decide that we wanted to go somewhere warm and tropical for our honeymoon. We just couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate our first week as husband and wife than laying on the beach! After considering a couple of places, we decided on St. Lucia in the Caribbean. We’re staying on Jade Mountain, a 600 acre beach front resort in Anse Chastanet. Jade Mountain offers an unparalleled view of the Pitons and the Caribbean Sea via our 270 degree panoramic infinity sanctuary. Jade Mountain’s spectacular setting and architecture is an unforgettable stage set for the honeymoon of a lifetime. So, needless to say, we’re really looking forward to it! We realize that many of you may wish to give us a wedding gift and since we already have most of the traditional wedding gift items, we have decided to offer our guests a popular new wedding gift alternative - our honeymoon registry. This will allow you to create special honeymoon memories that will last us a lifetime.
