WE GOT A NEW CAR!
We scrapped the new truck idea and decided to get a gas saver. Uck. But it is going to be Katy's car, so she's thrilled. It's a cute little Ford Focus. I feel almost green...ish. I'll never be a tree hugger, recycler, save the earth type, but with gas at $4 bucks a gallon, I'm pretty happy to be getting 30+ mpgs.
Last weekend at the track I was thinking that I'm a little surprised we haven't seen any tree hugger-type protesters at these events. Think about it. 300 RVs drive hundreds of miles at about 6 miles per gallon to get to the race. Once there, we all fire up our generators, burning additional fossil fuels. Then the racers hop on their 100 horsepower fuel-injected motorcycles and proceed to burn $8.00 per gallon race fuel (with additives) all weekend. All the while emitting countless pfc's or whatever into the pristine atmosphere. Sheesh, I can hear the little dinosaurs rollingh around in their graves. Mobil and Chevron should be thanking us and sending gas vouchers our way before every race weekend! Don't even get me started on NASCAR...its just dumb.

AMERICAN IDOL FINALLY GETS IT RIGHT!
I can't believe my favorite finally won AI :) I haven't watched Idol since the very first season, but I've been a faithful fan since Clay/Ruben. And since Clay/Ruben I have been discouraged every year that the voting public are just a bunch of retards that wouldn't know talent if it walked up and bopped them in the noggin. I mean really, Ruben? Well, this season the voting public came through and the right David won. Woo Hoo, can't wait for his CD!

WHAT'S WRONG WITH CAPTAIN PHIL?
I hope he's okay. I hope he goes to see a doctor. I hope the Cornelia Marie can finish the season with a billion pounds of crab. I love Phil, gruff old smoking, drinking, swearing, fisherman that he is. Reminds me of my dad. His kids are kinda goobers though. But not as bad as Johnathon's. Glad his demon spawn is off the boat. I have a secret crush on Johnathon and hope to run into him at the Oyster Run someday ;) But wait, then there's Sig...

OH OH OH, BEFORE I GO! KATY GOT 3RD LAST NIGHT!
She looked so good and focused. No crashing and she actually passed a couple of kids! Here's a pic:
That's it for now, I am gardening and cleaning today. Oh Joy.
