Racing.

By
Okay I'll admit. I'm prejudiced. I honestly thought racing had to be boring to watch and that really only backwoods southern hicks liked it.

Then my neighbor turned out to be a racing fanatic. And tonight we agreed to go watch the weekly local races. And we had a blast. Even the Orclette and she fell on the bleachers twice and got a split lip but still had fun.

Oh which reminds me of a funny convo that happened:
Me: "Huh I didn't know that bugs[car] were any good...."
My neighbor: "Dude, bugs[car] are baaaad. Seriously they rock."
Orclette very seriously: "I don't like bugs[insect]. They are bad."

Wulfa also had fun and will have to write a post about it.

The keypoint of the night was when my neighbor's friend's boy who was racing in the street stock catagory got bumped in the first lap and him and the bumpee went spinning off the track.... and he came back 4 laps later to take first. That was lots of fun. The other big point was the guy with the cherry red bug that had a ticklemeelmo tied to the back window frame like it was hanging on for dear life.

Anyways... way less biased now and actually willing to watch NASCAR with my neighbor one of these sundays.

But if I go to the track again I'm so totally bringing headphones.

Honestly, short track racing is usually a lot more fun to watch. NASCAR races are really long, and not a lot happens. At a short track, they have a bunch of short races, and it is usually more fun to watch.

Yeh dirt track racing > than nascar by a long shot. For nascar just watch the last 50 laps thats when they actually start to race each other. By headphones did you mean ear plugs? because those are definatley a nice thing to have.

Sub-Teach, On monday, I had about 80% of this written as a reply to your comment before I figured I should just drop it into a post. Yay for thought spam from simple commentary. To be clear: I'm not anti-our-current-president. I didn't like his solution for the recession(the bailout(which was started by our previous president)) but I'm certainly not blaming the recession on him. I understand that it was my dear party that thought you could spend AND cut taxes at the same time. I'm not really in favor of the way in which the other party wants to extend the tax cuts(cutting some and not others). I would rather we let all of the tax cuts expire and everyone equally paid a little bit more. BUT I'm really not happy with the idea that we can extend all of them when we are in record levels of national debt, which is what my party espouses. No our current president didn't have much time to fix the economy...and any good/harm he did probably won't be evident

A post!

So Beowulfa recieved the Burning Crusade as one of her many christmas presents. As a side note, she also recieved a picture of a chick with a pet lion. Sort of like Angharad. Anyways, we're poking Drenai characters in a "ooo that would be cool" kind of way. Since it was her birthday present and all... and if the characters were not BElf or Spacegoat then it wouldn't be using the present! So we're going to at least get them to 10. And BElf's are too... pretty in an ugly way. I don'ts like them. She doesn't like them(much?). I said Spacegoat. She quickly created a male drenai priest(this morning). We talked about it at lunch and she's going to make a paladin instead, I think. I slightly warned her off of priest because I've heard they solo about as well as a warrior heals. I'm.... undecided. We have warrior, paladin, mage, priest, shaman, hunter. I've been told I need to be something tankish. So mage and priest are gone. I'm definin
