Well, another weekend finished off with a day at the drag strip. I know it sounds like a good thing, but it wasn't. I was "volunteering" at the local track.

Now for the excellent new! This week I only work 4 days, and then I don't have to go back until the 12th. The plan for my vacation? Let me see here.....Thursday evening I will...

Yesterday at work I had to edit a very humorous book. It was a bodice ripper that was written in 1984. Here are some lines from it, which are chock full of euphemisms of the human anatomy. I hope that you all enjoy them as much as I DIDN'T!

"Behind the fly of his snug-fitting jeans was profound evidence of his sex."

"His se was...

RAIN!

It has come to my attention recently that the only time that my mind is fully functioning is while I am at the dragstrip. Even if I am working on Dad's car and not driving, my brain seems to be awake there. I guess I must be a junkie. Damn!

RAIN!
Means it will be 4 weeks by the time I get into my...

Today in an email I was asked a question that I thought I would share with you guys. The question is "What one experience makes you grin idiotically?"

Here was my reply:
I would like say when I saw Justine dance in her first recital, but that is just cute. I could say
when Grimace would win first place, people's choice, and best mopar in...

Back from the Cedar Point trip. I had a good time, and I enjoyed meeting all you guys. I have to apologize if I seemed a little stand offish in the evening, but I have a fucked up knee, and I was in extreme pain. EvanX I hope you made it home. SYH653 and Speedphreak I hope you enjoyed the Peon experience.

So now that...

I am recording a book this week that is actually good! I don't know how that happened, but it did. Anyway, there is a character in this book that I can see Steve Buscemi (sp?) playing. Every time the character comes along, I start giggling. I was sure that the director and narrator think that I am completely insane, so I told them what I...

So yesterday I was informed that the local track that I "volunteer" at may be closed after yesterday. This really sucks ass. Over the years, far to many dragstrips have closed, so that people could develop the land into another fucking strip mall or some shit. This unfortunately, leaves the drag racers no where to go, but the streets, which is a horrible place to...

Another weekend gone by too fast, and now I have to get my ass to work tomorrow.

On a good note, Cedar Point is Saturday!

Okay, here is a story about my beautiful 1970 Plymouth 'Cuda (a.k.a. love of my life).

I have been working on getting him running all spring and just when I think he is ready to go out of the garage..BOOM! something else breaks. Typical Mopar. So I was tired of working on him and stopped, but Dad took over and "finished it."

So, yesterday my...

Well, another weekend is over.

I had an excellent time this weekend. I went to the zoo and saw some crazy animals, and some funny baby animals. Watched some movies and did some bullshitting with good friends. "Volunteered" at the drag strip today, where my father did some testing. Watching that car is always a treat, but I was having a hard time not being...

Tomorrow is Friday, payday and Panay Day! It is going to be a pretty good day.

I will not get to drive my drag truck this weekend, nor will my father drive his drag car. My niece will be over this weekend, and since we only see her every other weekend and every wednesday, we try to be home when she comes over.

I managed...

Once again Lucifer (drag truck) is living up to his name and acting completely possessed.

First off, I have to say while Lucifer is a giant pain in my ass, he is....well.... there are no words that do him justice.

So yesterday he would NOT stay running in any forward gear, but he had no problem running in park, reverse, or neutral. Hold on it...
