Good “B” drivers are plentiful and I’ll just try to go with the mo & flow with them. When half the “C” drivers seem to be “go or go homers” and when Horny, ‘Dinger & Speed, when he’s in, are used up whaddaya gonna do?

I know 60 degrees is cool to Vegas folks but we haven’t seen 60 degrees in Central Oregon (it’s current 12) since last fall...

I’m gonna go work on my sign. I hope the TSA doesn’t have a rule against banners.

IIRC, last year we had Smoke, KyBu and Juablo on the B list. Made a bunch off of them. I doubt any three on this year’s B list will combine to earn what they did last year. C list is a disaster as I stated before Daytona.

Eyewitness Reporting

Today, in the Missouri Senate, a Resolution acknowledged Missouri Native, Jamie McMurray, Proclaiming Feb 25th, 2010 Jamie McMurray Day for his contributions to Missouri, NASCAR, and winning the Daytona 500. Jamie took the Proclamation at the Speakers Podium and addressed the Senate Chambers briefly. Also acknowledged was John Morris, founder of Bass Pro Shops, a $1.9 Billion business, located in Springfield Missouri, as the sponsor of Jamie McMurrays #1 Bass Pro Chevy.
Then Jamie and Morris went to the Missouri House Chamber for recognition by Speaker of the House Richards, who is from Jamie’s Home Town of Joplin Mo. Speaker Richards has known Jamie and his family for many years and gave the chamber some recollections of Jamie as a youngster. Jamie addressed the Missouri House Chambers saying that speaking in front of people was much more difficult than driving a race car, but it came with the job. After many photo ops, many members of the House lined up for autographs. A reception was held later for Jamie and Mr Morris.

A Bass Pro #1 Chevy was on display in front of the Mo Capital steps. It is my understanding that Jamie drove the car from the Jefferson City airport, across the Missouri River, to the Capital, with a highway patrol escort.

I was in attendance in Both the Senate and House Galleries, joined by my wife in the House Gallery, who is a Jamie McMurray Fan. Unfortunately I was unable to take any pictures except one on my cell phone that didn’t turn out. as Chamber rules prohibit flash cameras.

Vegas has to be a blast on race weekend.

Great place, almost moved there once - but too crowded. Locals know the shortcuts :)

I’ll let you know :) 3 hours and counting ‘til our plane leaves.

We probably wouldn’t fit into the ‘Vegas lifestyle anymore as we go to bed when people are getting ready to go out and get up when folks are coming back in.

I hope your snow has melted and Sunday is “work-free” for you.

We will have a blast; more excited then a dog chasing a 3 legged cat.

I will do what I can re: photos but I’ll need an assist.

I’ll Freep mail you when I get back.
