NASCAR the game will be out in the fall and it looks pretty sweet! Disgusted, I leave Game stop. As I drive through the parking lot and onto the street I have to make a tight turn around an errant shopping CART with little room between the curb and the cart, no room to pass I think, this is exactly the reason why Street Courses Suck. I drive by the park and see a lot of dogs and their Owners in the grass, tunnels, jumps and obstacles set up in this beatuiful field near a patch of old oaks and bordered by a prisitne pond complete with lilly pads and cattails. I stopped to watch, and I as witnessed these sleek agile dogs run through the course on this beautiful day in the park, I could not help but be reminded of how much Road Courses Suck.

    After the runs were complete and I get back to my car, a man exits the car parked next to mine, I notice that he has a personalized license plate that reads CCWS, I smile and say, "I see you are a CHAMP CAR fan" Looking puzzled the man replies "sorry not sure what your mean?" Oh, I thought your license plate was a reference to Indy Car racing. Used to be called Champ Car, well it was Indy Car once before it was Champ Car sort of, but that was before the split, when Tony George formed the IRL which was known as the Indy Racing Leauge. Oh, car racing, yeah Jeff Gordon and Dale Earnhardt right? Sorry, I HATE racing, I find that watching cars drive around on Ovals Sucks. Actually, the CCWS on my plate stands for Carl Cohick Welding Supplies, I'm Carl. He then proceeded to tell me all about welding supplies, techniques, history ad infinitum.

    Discouraged, I head back home to my parents basement fire up the PC and log into Track Forum, Need to post a new thread about the possibility of Brian Barnhart being reinstated as chief Steward once Randy is fired. It's all over the blogs and facebook, even a few insiders have tweeted about it. I love IndyCar racing!

    Do we have "Post of the Year"? If so, I would like to nominate this one.

    Suprised no one has called me out on Kennedy, I must be right
    Or it gets merged with the Derail Thread in Off Topics.

    See you forgot the ever present spectre of a thread hijack
    To merge themes, here is a Douglas Adams quote about Presidents:

    "Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job."

    It would need some bling for that to happen. Good thing it's Friday.

    Officer Mitchell, I thought you said you didn't want to have to come back here this evening.

    In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
