Got my fingers crossed!
Problem is, I'm on a country dirt road... not a lot of traffic.
I DO have ads in seven papers, and many many luridly coloreed signs out!
AND a HUGE yelow and white striped tent in my yard. That's where the books are, most....
I'm fine. How are you.
Hey!
Look at the two buddies!
Hope you had fun!
Did you have anything good to eat?
The green flag will fall on the 33-car starting field of the Indianapolis 500 at 11 a.m. (EST, local time) Sunday, May 30 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
ESPN, which is the exclusive worldwide television representative of the Indy Racing League® IndyCar® Series and the Indianapolis 500, will televise the Indianapolis 500 live to 149 countries and territories outside of the United States via its affiliated networks in Africa, Asia, Australia, Latin America, New Zealand and the Middle East.
ESPN is also responsible for the global syndication of the Indianapolis 500 for broadcast in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. In addition, ESPN has reached an agreement with Eurosport, the most widely available channel in Europe, reaching more than 95 million homes and 250 million viewers in 54 countries, to televise the Indianapolis 500 on same-day delay.
In the United States, the Indianapolis 500 will be telecast live to a nationwide audience on Disney-owned ABC. When combined with ESPN’s international distribution efforts, the estimated worldwide total for the Indianapolis 500 will reach 205 countries and more than 420 million households worldwide – a new record for a third consecutive year.
“To have the largest international television audience in Indy 500 history is a testament to the appeal of this great race,” said Joie Chitwood, Indianapolis Motor Speedway senior vice president of business affairs. “With a field of great American and international racers, the Indy 500 has once again demonstrated why it is called ‘The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.’
Said Reilly: “The Indianapolis 500 is recognized as one of the premier motorsports competitions throughout the world, and ESPN is pleased to once again offer record distribution of this great event.”
In addition to the broad global television distribution of the race, this year’s Indianapolis 500 also has a particular international appeal. Of the 33 starting drivers, 14 are from countries outside of the United States, including five drivers from Brazil, four drivers from the England, two drivers from Japan, and one driver each from Mexico, New Zealand, and South Africa.
This is swell, I live 72 miles from the track—in Tony Hulman George's hometown—and have to listen to the race on the radio.
Anyway of borrowing a yard on a busier throughfare?

The big stuff is already spoken for, like the roto-tiler, the tractor the generator...( So I AM hauling in cash! LOL! )
I'm going to do another sale over 4th of July weekend...any thing I can't off-load is going to a consignment shop or is getting donated.
Have you ever tried eBay? I keep saying I will, but the Procrastinator's Club and all, you know...
My flagpole snapped in a stiff wind, but going out and spending money on a new flagpole I found an old broom handle that works just as well. Members of "The Greatest Generation" would appreciate that.
Actually I have sold on eBay, and I have some dols and things that I am holding out to sell that way.
Righ now, I am having trouble with my digital camera... and just haven't had the time to figure out what the deal is.
I suppose once I actually get moved, I get the bugs out of the camera and set up some auctions.
Actually, eBay is part of how I got INTO this situation!
I went nuts buying stuff on it for about a year! LOL!
Glad to see you in the Canteen today!
How is son son doing in the IDF?
He is back in training for anti-terrorism ops.
Last week his unit prevented a major terrorist attack from taking place in Jerusalem.
He had Sabbath liberty, which he spent with my daughter and her husband in the Galilee.
Wow!
Kudos to your son and his buddies for disrupting that terror attack!
Glad he got a little down-town with family...
Keeping him in my prayers!
I was going to ask you your secrets to selling on eBay but now I'm not so sure. LOL! That's somthing I would do!
