Please pray on this day, and every day, for our Patriot Armed Forces standing in harm's way around the world in defense of our liberty, and for the families awaiting their safe return.

Good point.
I really should use a dictionary before posting a word with an unintended meaning... :-))
Some inspection action has to be taken this week. The credability of NASCAR is at stake.
OK and what are we going to do about the delayed starts while you are doing your in depth search of the #8 ???? ;)
We have a 20% chance of rain forecast from Friday night on through the weekend. :(
That could ruin your weekend for sure.
We should get our first real rain in the next few days. We could have a frost here on the coast tomorrow morning unless it clouds up...
We can just send Herm over to the booth for a little chat! :)

(Heading to Ft. Worth Friday for race-weekend. Come on Friday!)
Fans attending the Dickies 500 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series weekend will get a chance to pen their “best wishes” to retiring two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and native Texan, Terry Labonte. Labonte, a Corpus Christi native, is driving in his final Cup race of his career in the Nov. 5 Dickies 500.
A giant postcard that measures eight feet in height with “Terry Labonte – Thanks For The Memories” inscribed at the top will be inside the “10 Year Experience” display tent outside of Gate 4 on the frontstretch. Throughout the weekend, fans can write a special message for “Texas Terry” by signing the card, which will be given to Labonte following the Dickies 500.
A replica of the No. 44 Chevrolet with the special “Terry Labonte Tribute” paint scheme will also be on display in the tent.
The cold actually bothers me more than the chances of rain. What is the "chill factor" at 49 degrees with 185 mph wind?
If I can just get through today, we roll in the morning. :)))
I'll have to know what your Relative's Humidity is to figure the Chili Factor...
Sad News: M. Verne Joy, 91, passed away peacefully Oct. 30, at home in Athol, Mass. Joy is the father of Fox broadcaster Mike Joy. A 1938 graduate of Parks Air College of St. Louis University, Mr. Joy was an aeronatutical engineer at Lockheed in Burbank, Calif. where he helped design the famed P-38 Lightning, and the Hudson bomber.

He was named vice president in 1969, and elected to the company’s board of directors. Mr. Joy retired in 1975 to Petersham, Mass., where he enjoyed mechanical restoration projects, served on the town finance committee, and was elected tothe Board of Selectman.
