"Debris" would be a Stanley Dodge. Rudd gets one of his 6 laps back.

I like how Fox always times their commercials right before a caution comes out. So that way when they come back, you have missed the action. Nice.

They way they play commercials, you'd think they have the understanding that the race pauses for their stupid breaks.

Thanks. I'm really disappointed that I can't taunt the Hollywood elitists with a purple finger and song tonight.

I didn't have to pop for any of those. Thanks to MoJo2001, I was able to provide the AMERICAN IDOL tape that I failed to tape. I learned my lesson. Mrs. DFU is on a short cruise with a bunch of women this weekend, and I taped a show last night. There were reminders posted everywhere.

Carl Edwards is impressive (also one of my fantasy picks).
