Hey, all.

May I just say that I am over the concept of daylight saving Summer Time? It is still going down here. April is nearly upon us and it is still with us. Our mornings are pitch black at 7am. Bleh. Could someone please end our misery. *sniff*

Hep - as an early riser, I would find that completely unacceptable! I want to know what they're saving it for at this point?!? Agrarian societies are now TWO centuries ago!

It has nothing to do with late-rising cows, Q. The change back to Standard Time was delayed to aid the - wait for it - Formula 1 Grand Prix. Ugh!

Oh, well - how could I POSSIBLY have not considered them!

And, may I say, your use of 'wait for it' just makes me happier than it probably should I use that here, and people look at me like I have three heads!

At least, that's why I think they're looking at me that way

It's not your use of the words, Q. It's the way we drink. We are seeing three heads.

[Q]

Posted: 3/30/10 at 11:45pm

I prefer to think that, when I drink, I actually DO have three heads!

Problem is, I still can't tell which is in charge . . .

Usually it's the one on the left.

Q is Cerberus?

I don't quite see the attraction of motor sports. To each his own.

BrotherQ describes it as, "Drive fast, turn left."

That about covers it for me.

Sums it up quite nicely.

I actually have a friend that does that whole scene, and I dropped her off once at an 'event'. It scared me how MANY people (well over 150,000!) gathered together in such a short amount of time. And I don't mean just people - they came with campers, trailers, and . . . well, basically anything necessary for day-to-day living.

Honestly, it was as if an entire city sprung up over night.

And entire city in which I was, shall we say, verboten.

I basically kicked her out before the car had completely stopped, and was halfway home before they knew I was there.

I had no idea that you moonlight as a getaway driver.

Only if the percentage of the cut is HIGH!

I went to one Nascar race because my friend was driving and it was close to home. It was the most boring thing I have ever attended. Never again.

My dad lived Nascar, and sitting with a cold Bud watching the races for hours upon hours. He claimed there was strategy involved. It looked like circular paint drying to me. I think he liked it just because my mom hated it so.

YWIW - that just made me laugh - REALLY hard!

Morning, peeps!

Mornin'













and, for Girly:

Good mornin', Peeps!

Our girl, Tink, likes Nascar and especially the drivers. I'll admit that the last 10 or 15 laps can be very exciting, but I've usually changed the channel long before that.

So, do I take the girl to Hair or La Cage in June? Or something else?

[MotorTink]

Posted: 3/31/10 at 8:41am

Me? cars? racing? speed? never! lol i couldnt stand it at first either but there IS a LOT that goes into it to make it happen and I have had the pleasure of getting to know them and the sport personally. I miss my southern boys!

Morning!

Pinky - I did enjoy Hair but I hear La Cage is a good show too!

[Bluemoon]

Posted: 3/31/10 at 8:51am

I would think that the strategy part would be the same as speed skating, only noisier.

DONUTS!

Good morning!

[Q]

Posted: 3/31/10 at 10:00am

Morning.

I wish I could see the blossoms . . .

Have any of you seen this? This guy is autistic and they call him the Human Camera.

Shamey - I saw a similar report on him a while ago, but he was drawing NYC. It really is jaw-dropping. The human mind can do incredible things.
