When I get frustrated about the upcoming election, I go dig in my back yard. I figured I’d bury enough food for eight years. If all else fails, I can cement it and have the pool I’ve always wanted... or, sponsor neighborhood mud wrestling matches. I figure I’ll have about one chance in 150 million of changing the outcome... how’s that for a reality check?

OTOH, there’s a race on this weekend!

Too bad we don’t have a LasVegasMac in Atlanta!

That’s all fine and good but I need a hot tip on the winner this weekend.

Bo won't give out his new cell number, so I'm in the same boat, which is, coincidentally, steadily sinking. I'll see ya halfway.

It was a lovely day here in the Land of Big Trees so I ventured out into the garden to watch wife spade a strip 3’ by 50 feet for a flower bed. Took her 65 minutes. Not a record but a new model is out of the question...

Kobalt tools are kool!

I use them whenever I am traveling around our great Kountry, especially when I stay at KOAs.

You'ld be Krazy not to use Kobalt tools!

I just don't get some people's mindset. Sure glad all of our drivers are not part of the "pick up my ball and go home crowd".

I think I need to go short trackin so I may miss the tape delay Saturday night.

How about a new model as an “assistant”?

Did ya'll see what Nascar did to Flipper today?

Carl Edwards was docked 100 points and car owner Jack Roush 100 owner points because of the oil reservoir unbolted cover issue. This drops Edwards from 1st to 7th in points.
Crew chief Bob Osborne was fined $100,000, suspended from the next six races until April 30 and placed on probation through the end of the year.

In addition, Edwards will not receive a 10-point bonus for last Sunday's victory if he qualifies for the Chase.

IMHO the COT sucks and so do many if not most of the NUTSCAR rules about them.

Where is inovation? Locked in a cage!!!

The rule book should be torn in half with only the safety provisions left!

Wow. From the severity of the penalty, NASCAR seems to be saying that they believe this was something that helped the car go faster somehow.

I was not a fan of COT when it first arrived, but have warmed to it. When Flash and JJ totaled out their cars in the Shootout, they were able to replace them with cars technically for another track. And then in the race, there was far more passing than I’ve seen in quite a while at Daytona or Taladega. They would start their normal train thing and someone would just drop out and go forward. Don’t know if they showed it on TV or not, but it was happening well back into the pack too.
