Didn't even get 2 inches of snow from the storm yesterday. Both local news stations I watch were predicting 4 inches but the snow fizzled out when I went to bed last night instead of lasting all night. A cold has worked it's way around the wife's work this week and she came home yesterday with a sore throat and runny nose. Hopefully her symptoms will be mild and quickly gone. Everybody's first thought was Covid but nobody had any positive tests this week. Enjoy your new toy Roger, don't be surprised if it shows up late though.

Not to get political but I see F1 has cancelled the Russian Grand Prix for now. The Daytona 500 had a huge jump in viewers from last year's 500, 8.8million people watched this year compared to just 4.9million viewers for last year's Daytona 500. Here's the penalty report for the Daytona 500 https://www.jayski.com/2022/02/23/daytona-post-race-penalties-announced-4/ RFK and Penske did not get penalized and Nascar has decided to make changes to the wheels that those teams did. Nascar has also suspended the crew chiefs and tire changers from the #50 TMT team and #31 Kaulig Racing. If teams will also lose tire changers I think we might see slower pitstops to make sure the rims are seated right and lugs tightened properly as top tier teams do not want to lose valuable pit crew.

Everything seems to be fine now. The last 3 times I logged in it worked great. Life was weird without the HazzardNet. Our numbers aren't as high as they used to but this is a case of quality meaning more than quantity.....and my cousins here are of the highest quality! On an unrelated note, I ordered a new dirt bike. Mine is 25 years old and has a ton of problems. I'm feeling like a kid waiting for Christmas.

Tires come in sets in F1, so changing 3 would have resulted in the car being recalled to the pits and possibly a fine for the team. BTW. In Ireland, Woodies is a store similar to Home Depot in the US.

I'd like to assure MaryAnne that this song is not about a certain NASCAR driver .

I know I could put this in 'One Word Song Titles': Rubberbandman - Yello 1991 track from the eccentric Swiss duo. My CD single came in a great 3D rubber sleeve: I picked up some cool, limited edition CDs and vinyl back then. There used to be so many good record stores in London - maybe four major chains and over a dozen independents. When I went back recently I found that the only surviving major store, HMV, had closed one of its three large West End stores and there are only about three or four independents of the ones I used to visit. I guess this is the price we pay for MP3s. While we're on 'rubberband' songs, I thought I'd also include Rubberband Girl by Kate Bush. I must dig the single out so I can rip it to my computer. Thanks Brian, these guys could give Rosco's '10 Million Dollar Sheriff' suit a run for its money.

Gotta miss ol' Waylon. Love this song!

Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Man – Bob Seeger Ditto on what Brian said, we've had some great 'manly' songs going here! Except for the backside of that Talking Heads CD. ROFL

I'm a Ramblin' Man - Waylon Jennings I so love this live version, from 1989. The steel guitar, Waylon's unique sounding guitar...man let's jump in the General Lee and tear up the roads!
