Speaking of gas prices. Octane 87 was $3.59.9 here in Eureka yesterday. I can remember when it went over a $1.00 gallon and they had to price it by the quart because the gas pumps didn’t have enough digits...

We had a one hour meeting yesterday before they opened the doors at Chocolate World. Here is what was announced. Pretty awesome.

HERSHEY TO SALUTE RACING LEGEND DALE EARNHARDT IN 2008

The Hershey Company will honor NASCAR racing legend Dale Earnhardt in 2008 by introducing four Collector Edition bars featuring iconic images of Earnhardt and the stylized #3 he made famous. Packaging for the Collector Edition bars will showcase one of four different Earnhardt images, including three individual portraits spanning his distinguished career and one image of the Richard Childress Racing #3 GM Goodwrench car that Earnhardt raced to victory lane in the 1998 Daytona 500.

The Collector Edition Dale Earnhardt bars will be available in four varieties, including two Hershey’s Milk Chocolate bar designs, one Hersheys Milk Chocolate with Almonds bar design and one Kit Kat wafer bar design. Packaging will feature facts about the racing legend and will be redeemable for unique Earnhardt merchandise.

The specially molded Collector Edition Dale Earnhardt bars will feature distinctive on-bar design including Earnhardt’s signature and stylized #3 and will be available from January through May 2008 at retail outlets nationwide. Hershey will invite consumers to make a donation to the Dale Earnhardt Foundation through an online charity event.

Dale Earnhardt, often credited as a major factor in the rise of the sport’s popularity, was a seven-time Winston/Nextel Cup champion and is tied for the most individual titles in racing history. He was the winner of 76 NASCAR Cup races and finished in the top 10 at 417 NASCAR Cup races throughout his illustrious career.

His transmission is stuck between 1st and 2nd gear. I believe Tony Gibson said they’re going to the back of the pack in the back-up. Jr’s season from hell rolls right on the the end. . .

Ever figured out were Jeff would be standing under the old (pre-chase) format?

Jayski says Jeff would've clinched last week at Phoenix (up 344, 5295 to 4951)

And I have a feeling it’s just going to get worse ($3.049 here). That $90-$100/barrel oil hasn’t hit the refineries just yet.

$3.26 here in North Central WV.
I drive by a grasshopper on a hill several times a week. Yesterday I saw it operating for the first time in six years. ;)

Junior was backing out of his garage stall and Harvick nearly hit him. Junior slammed on his brakes and the transmission broke.

The story is that they told jr to stop then go then stop again - missed communications. He was mad as a wet hen about it and I don’t blame him. He qualified well.

Speed said earlier Nascar always has someone on the corner directing traffic, but this time they were not there. The CC should have had this under control but he was probably thinking about how many air pressure chnages he is going to make during the race.

with his Internet running at 94mbps he should be forced to unplug his mouse and operate his screen by keyboard...

the equivalent of putting one mouse key behind his back!
