Prayers for our troops in the field , their families and our nation and allies as we wage war against Terrorism locally and globally and our enemies, both foreign and domestic, including those serving in this nation's own highest institutions.

Not sure, I tried yahell too. I suspect your intuition i correct re: a landmark or such.

It's in the Valley of the Moon, it's a pretty cool area, but traffic is a bugger.

I'm on my way out the door to go to Grandview Speedway out near Allentown, PA.

Sprints and Midgets tonight, and we're bringing the Legendary Nick Fornoro, Sr., former Midget Champ ('50 & '56), chief starter for USAC and CART, and all-round great guy.

It's gonna be fun!

Enjoy the televised races. I'll be busy getting dust in my teeth.

It's geographical and historical. Highway 37 is called the Black Point cutoff. Why I don't know...

Three full course cautions.

That is unless Jeff laps the field and Nascar has to figure a way to let everyone catch up (like Sauter last night).

Why was the track named Sears Point? Is that geographical, or Sears Roebuck or what? I've been lost in google purgatory lookin...

Why Google when you can go to the track website? :-) Seems the land the track was built on, as long as well as a heap of land nearby, was settled by a guy named Franklin Sears.

Mini-Sauter caused that caution, thinking that NASCAR would only let the lucky dog on the lead lap with him after he pitted. He didn't count on his crew reacting like they just won the race.

Aha! Thanks Steve!

Franklin Sears was born in Indiana in 1817. He spent his childhood in Missouri, and in 1844 ventured westward to Oregon. He left home with his friend, Granville Swift, a rifle, mule and $1.50 in his pocket.

After one winter in Oregon, Sears was fed up with the rain and headed south. He volunteered for the U.S.-Mexican war and was named a hero of the Battle of San Pasquale. He spent much of the time in the thick of the battle and was a decorated solider during the war. Following the war in 1851, he married Granville Swift's sister, Margaret, and settled on 600 acres of land south of Sonoma. He built his home of hand-hewn redwood. He was a blacksmith by trade but a large source of his income came from ranching.

Sears eventually partnered with Granville Swift and bought 15,000 acres of land that stretched from Infineon Raceway all the way to what is now Lakeville Highway.

Hey, I've got a rifle. Lend me a buck fitty and we can build a track! Oh, wait... got a mule?

RE: Jeff Gordon and wine

Sometimes I just have to wonder if it is concerted effort on his part to be hated by NASCAR fans.
