All Over The Place

November 8, 2012

Thoughts from literally all over the place:

On NASCAR Sirius Radio: former NASCAR Truck Series driver Kimi Raikkonen won the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix this weekend............former NASCAR Truck Series driver? You kidding? Yes, he drove for one of the Busch boys. What a great driver, just make sure you keep him out of the bars on Saturday night, he might blow a 0.12 the next day. Congratulations to Lotus on their first win in a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnng time. Great to see that team logo out front.

Bumper sticker seen in Asheville today "Eat Rich People, The Other White Meat." Saw a lot of flannel clad hairy legged women in that beautiful city. Used to think I might end up in that area one day. After lunch I drove out to my Grandma's sister's house; there was a gate closing off the driveway, decided against opening it. Picture next week............

Lady Gaga donated $1,000,000 to the Red Cross for the victims of Sandy, very nice.

Paraphrased quote from Howard Stern today: the habitat for reality shows are human zoos, people come by and stare at the oddities. Well said King of All Media

Who really understood this picture from the 70's? Well, maybe with a little PhotoShop help

Observed on I-40 near Winston-Salem; wonder if the driver is on his way to the Barrett-Jackson auction? I have a distorted sense of automotive styling, but I always thought this modified fastback style was attractive, same with the Vega. How many redundant comments is that? I have a sinking feeling the owner thinks he is sitting on a gold mine. 

I've got one of these at home. Beautiful woman, sleeps like a homeless drunk. I'm going to look into my future and wager that I will regret typing that................

Did a little fishing last weekend with the FO, caught some quality fish none the least of which were these toads, blowfish, puffers, whatever you want to call them. No, they're not poisonous. 

Afterwards one happy diner, reminds me of a cat from the comics.........

Hope she forgives me for the sleeping hobo comment; if it makes her feel better my (unnamed) niece sleeps like a drunken sailor.

And I guess I've offended enough people for one night, guess that is what happens when I blog on Thursday night. I have a 7:30 AM meeting in Greenville SC Friday, and a 3:30 PM meeting in Morehead. Gentlemen, start your engines.............

Off to Palm Springs for the AHRI meeting Saturday. Follow our industry at http://www.ahrinet.org
