Although I use my phone to check HNet when I'm out of the house, I make well over 90% of my contributions from a laptop. The ability to easily switch between multiple tabs and multiple sources, and having an actual keyboard to type on means that I can't imagine getting nearly as involved with smaller devices. Roger, I don't know how big your tablet is, but I'm sure the larger screen benefits your viewing of photos and videos.

On March 17, 2026 I scored Clive Cussler's Raise the Titanic! at my local B&N (Barnes & Noble) for $10.99 + tax. Wasn't expecting to find it on the shelf, and got a surprise - it's in Mystery Thrillers, not Fiction! π Guess it's a win-win! #RaiseTheTitanic #CliveCussler I have finished reading it now for the first time. Anyone else ever read it?

After the opening races of the F1 season were dominated by Mercedes, Kimi Antonelli could only qualify in second for the Sprint race yesterday, sandwiched between the McLarens of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. In the race, Kimi lost out at the start and McLaren went on to finish first and second. Although Kimi fought his way back to fourth behind Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, a penalty saw him relegated to sixth behind George Russell and Max Verstappen. Cadillac have improved slightly to be competing in the mid-field. The sprint race highlights are here. In the qualifying for the main race, Oscar Piastri came close to an early exit, but eventually put his car in seventh. At the front, there are four different teams in the first four places. Kimi Antonelli got pole ahead of Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris. Qualifying highlights are here. If anyone's planning to watch the main race live, please note that the race time has been brought forward three hours to 1pm local time due to a predicted thunderstorm.

F1 is finally back this weekend with the Miami Grand Prix, but I'll post about that later. First, I read the sad news earlier that Alex Zanardi died yesterday at 59 years old. The Italian driver spent a few years in F1 before moving to the US where he won the CART World Series in 1997 and 1998 with Chip Ganassi Racing. After that, he had another brief stint in F1 before returning CART. In 2001, he lost both legs in a terrible crash in Germany, and survived for nearly an hour with less than a litre (under two pints) of blood left in his body. Undaunted by the injury, he returned to various forms of motor racing., but it was racing handbikes where he really succeeded once more becoming a four-time Paralympic gold medallist and 12-time world champion. There was a minute's silence for Alex Zanardi before today's Miami F1 sprint race. There's a full article at bbc.com.

MOONSHINE 400!! Hey guys! The 2nd Annual Moonshine 400 snuck up on us! ( on me?? ) We're now in the 1st week of may....( 5/4/25 was the 1st annual !!) and so I figure instead of having it tomorrow on the second, we could spend this week preparing for it and all the things we need to do, watch out for etc. and then NEXT Sat, on May 9th, we can have the official 2nd Annual Moonshine 400! Then we can all meet at the Boar's Nest and congratulate the winner and console the losers....with my special " Back 40 Moon" and cousin Roger's Boar's Nest Buttermilk!

This is why Daytona and Talladega isn't a favorite to me. It's all about the big one and all the accidents. I am glad no one got hurt in the accidents, though.

Probably won't be home until midnight.

I can do it. I've gotten pretty good with tech lately. My wife just showed me how to open links. It's not really that hard. You just click on it and all the information pops up. I asked her to show me how to do a screen shot so hopefully in a few weeks I'll get good at doing those too. Is there anything else I need to know?
-
maybe you'll be back in time to catch some of the holiday and watch some episodes later with us???

Good to hear you have a new phone. I use a really old tablet for HN. Blew up from a swollen battery? Cause any other damage? Were you in the outhouse at the time? I hope you don't need a new outhouse now.

I'm going to have to pick up my wife later and then I'll come back and open a new 15pk. case of Milwaukee's Best Ice ( Ice beer is my fav.! ) and I'll watch some of season 6 tonight and might get into season 7...don't know....I'll probably be back on here later as I watch the show and....uh.....celebrate the holiday! Hey cousins! You guys need to get on here with me on DOHD and celebrate with me! Roger, you can celebrate with Buttermilk! We can all get wild and party on Friday night, the official DOHD !!

A friend's post. Boss said if I give out 100 parking tickets today... I can drive the bigger sheriff car tomorrow. (Picture of Rosco writing tickets and his vehicle is a 2000s Dodge Charger.) My comment that I wrote. Sounds like something James Best would say. π Boss, how am I supposed to catch those Duke Boys in this dang Tuna can? π

I'm back with my new phone everybody. Old phone swelled/bloated/battery blew up.
