Wow, that's cheaper than Texas! I can see 0 trying to implement those darn wind turbines. They have tried here but the community fought it and won - so far! The darn things are a blight on the land [Palm Springs for instance] noisy, even if they are a mile away and are causing some people strange illness who live close to them.

cheaper gas will have O looking to raise the gas tax since it wouldn’t be as painful as when gas is over $4 a gallon.

As Rahm Immanuel, O’s new Chief of Staff said, “We cannot miss the opportunities that comes with a crisis”

Texas already produces more power from wind than any other state and that does not include the two new ones down on the Kenedy Ranch. Pickens is behind the curve on this one.

I don’t remember ever seeing a 24 car in Nationwide. Isn’t National Guard on the 5?

199.00 and I got priority shipping for 18.00. It will arrive monday. The dealer said these lamps last just over a year but we got almost 2 1/2 out of it. Currently we are watching a 30” sitting on the piano bench (sigh). Our DLP is 56”! Can’t wait until monday.

Thanks Pete, how’s everything over there in your state?

If anyone is missing racing here is a long list of videos to watch.

Warning, this one is Dale Jr, but I’m sure the other drivers have a page.:)

No, Guard moved from NW to Cup for Jeff’s 24 car when Jr runs Amp.

The 5 car only has about 6 or 7 races with various drivers as Jr couldn’t get sponsors and they also had to lay off people at JR Motorsports.

Hellmans will be one, I have a pic somewhere. Hmmmm, is that one l or two?

BTW Click for 6 should be Jr’s MPD award again this year. LOL Chex is thinking of changing the voting. That would be futile as Jr fans will always out vote anyone.

Matt and Jr are going to NY for awards, but I don’t know what Matt is getting??

Evernham quitting NASCAR to buy a track? NASCAR team owner Ray Evernham announced Thursday night in Lincolnton [NC] that he is in advanced negotiations to purchase the East Lincoln Speedway and plans to retire from NASCAR. Evernham and partner Bob Mack of Cornelius-based RPM Group Holdings said they had hoped to have the keys to the speedway in their hands when they appeared at the Lincolnton-Lincoln County Chamber of Commerce’s Business After-Hours event to make the announcement, but were prevented from doing so as negotiations continued. Evernham said he has already sold off most of his interest in the Gillett-Evernham Motorsports race team and is ending his career with NASCAR. “I want to get back into grassroots racing,” he told the gathering of area community leaders and businesspeople. Contacted by the Times-News Friday morning, current track owner Ralph Nantz said he couldn’t “talk much about it right now,” but confirmed that “serious” negotiations with Evernham were under way. “You might say he is showing some interest,” Nantz said. The East Lincoln Speedway has been in operation since 1991 and is a 3/8 mile clay oval track.(Lincoln Times-News), no word if Evernham will be back with ESPN in 2009
