The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series returns to the high banks of Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday, March 16, for the Food City 500. One Dale is in a new ride and another Dale is competing in his final season. The last two Sprint Cup races saw two first-time Bristol Cup Series winners, in Kyle Busch and Carl Edwards. Who'll take home that big ol' Bristol Food City 500 trophy this year?

The Food City 500 is part of a spectacular Bristol race weekend, which includes the Sharpie MINI 300 Nationwide Series race (March 15) as well as Pole Day (March 14).

LOL. Never too early for breakfast though. Got some killer sausages from the trucker guy. Throw on some eggs and taters and the kids will be happy. They ate a late lunch.

Didn't change the plug, but had gas everywhere. Wife came out to assist, more likely watch, and she said it smelled and went back in. Had the air filter completely off and enough spark to almost knock my arm off.LOL

I'll take it to brother in law, he has a "touch".

so I took off the cover and “adapted” a 1/2” drill to spin it.<

I have always wanted to do that with a 1/2 cordless impact driver until I discovered Starting Fluid. Did you blow the main jet out? My best Friend sold his auto parts store but kept the small engine repair and parts and I spend a lot of time watching him. 'Phone Rings'..."hi this is Mel how can I help you?.Mower won't run? Bring it in and leave it and I'll check it out. could be the disgrontifacator." Hangs up and says it either water in the main jet or a oiled air cleaner from turning it on the carb side. Customer drops it off and leaves. 15 minutes and it's running.

LOL. Sleep well. Costco doesn’t open till 10 in the morning, and the kids are out till Tuesday. The girl is going to play in the snow and the boy and I are going to the desert to waste some perfectly good .223 early on... but dawgs must be fed, so we’ll end up shopping tomorrow. You just can’t imagine the depression of Bo without his beloved Kirkland Dawg Biscuits. I can’t bear the shame of having nothing to hand him once the coffee is done in the morning :o)

I'll drop off some biscuits. I really think I could get Bo to speak Urdu to obtain just one.

Maybe he can teach Dolly somethin bout racin, and pickin winning teams!

Or, maybe they'll just sniff each other's butts and mess up your living room. Dunno.

Even tried that, but there wasn't enough left in the can. Used it on my old truck trying to get the three year old gas out. I may go into the carburetor today, or not. Don't really know what motivated me to mess with it, it three months until hurricane season. LOL

Bil does small engine repair also. And like his father did before him, I think he makes more money with that than his day job.

Slept like a rock. Guess it wore me out more than I realized. One thing I know it has is compression!

Ya'll have fun today wherever you end up and for goodness sake, don't forget the dogfood!

Good Morning!

Dropped half the clan off at the bus station at the bottom of the canyon carrying enough expensive ski equipment to equal the annual budget of your average small country. Decided to go shooting on Monday after all the city riffraff leaves the desert... so it’s off and away for dawg biscuits! Yee and haw. Good luck on the generator. Don’t throw yer back out farin it up.

Good mornin'!

Don't know jack about snow skiing, other than it's cold and cold and I don't get along, but can imagine the amount of clothes alone would ruin the budget!

Good idea waiting for all the idiots to leave the desert. Many of the ranches down here have gone into game management because of the amount of money that deer hunters will spend, it's more profitable than cattle. Always have to laugh at the camo all these guys (and gals) wear, but then we go home and hide! LOL

If there was I missed it.

Did succeed in running the end of my finger into the mag on the generator, sure glad there's not much clearance there.
