I prefer Fox's coverage, BUT....

It appears the racers actually like the NBC guys better?

Wonder what a jet truck dryer driver gets paid? Hey, I could do that job.

Robert Yates not at the track for first time in many years. Had kidney stone problems. Ouch.

This nation's true strength, it's up and coming youth, who are coming of age at a time when their country needs them most.

I wish them all well. God bless them and their families.

Heck, I'd up for tickets too. I fell for an A&W burger basket and a float. :-} :)

I see Yahoo locked us in even though the race hasn't started.

I never did change my team, probably better that way.

HMMMM lamb good.. /Homer

My favorite

Perna de Cabrito da Beira Alta

(Roasted Leg of Baby Goat)

Ingredients

 7 lbs Leg of kid
 3 lg Garlic cloves - peeled & quartered 
1 Bay leaf - crumbled 
1 Tbs Paprika 
1 tsp Coarse salt 
1/2 tsp Ground black pepper 
2 Tbs Olive oil 4
lg Idaho potatoes, peeled and cut in eighths 
4 lg Yellow onions, peeled & quartered 
1 cup Vinho verde or other dry white wine 

Trim excess fat from the lamb; set lamb aside.  Using a mortar and pestle, grind the garlic, bay leaf, salt, paprika, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the oil to paste; blend in the remaining tablespoon of oil and rub the paste all over the lamb.  

Place in a large shallow roasting pan and let stand 1 hour at room temperature.

Twenty five minutes before you're ready to roast the lamb, preheat the oven to very hot (450°F).

 Roast the lamb uncovered for 20 minutes; reduce the oven heat to moderate (350°F), add the potatoes and onions to the roasting pan, pour the wine over the lamb, and roast uncovered 1 1/2 hours, stirring the vegetables every half hour and basting the lamb with the pan drippings.  Let stand at room temperature 20 minutes before serving.  Transfer the leg to large platter, wreathe with the vegetables, and carve at table.

 Pass the pan drippings in a heated sauceboat

I also add a very large splash of Vermouth - mostly as an excuse to make martinis.

Huck
