Do you watch CMT any at all? I know you like country music, but some people don't like that channel. Anyway, I was watching Toby Keith's Broken Bridges movie on CMT last night and saw a preview for CMT Cribs. Unless my eyes were deceiving me, it looks like John Schneider is going to be on that show. I need to look it up to make sure, but I haven't taken the time yet. Do you know anything about it? I know they have shown quite a few Nascar drivers in the past too. It would be cool to see Bo Duke's house. lol

That sucks about the cable company. What in the world are they thinking. Those are probably two of the most watched channels too. Surely they are getting some complaints. I guess it's good that your dad is checking into a different cable company. If that happens to me I think I will just be out of luck. The cable company I have is contracted through the apartment complex. I will keep my fingers crossed for you though.

Ha, ha, ha! That Sesame Street sounds like it would have been funny. Wormdega, lol I love it! Sorry I missed that. I am such a bad auntie. But maybe I can redeem myself.

Hey Garrett! Happy New Year! And congrats on being Fan of the Month. You so deserve it buddy! So here's the big question that has been going around and I'm curious as to what you think. Do you pronounce the year as twenty ten or two thousand ten? Just curious. They had a whole segment about it on the news and it intrigued me. I like twenty ten myself. But that's just me. lol So how did your New Years go? Mine was good. We got to leave work a little early and I drove the hour and a half to my brothers house to ring in the new year. They had friends come up from the bootheel to visit and my other brother and cousins also came. Plus my nephew and my sister in laws mother who is still visiting from California state. It was a good bunch. I talked a lot about Nascar and what races I'd like to go to. We played some games and played with the kids. It was a lot of fun.

So how was your Christmas? Mine was pretty good. My nephew didn't even open all of his presents though because he wasn't feeling well. He had fun though and everyone was happy with the gifts they recieved. Did you get what you wanted for Christmas? I was just happy to have the whole family together. That was the best part for me.

So do you have any big new year's plans? Well, whatever they are, I hope you have a great one! I'll talk with you next year! lol

Well I'm glad to hear that you'll still be getting the Fox channel anyway. I would be so mad if I lost Fox. Actually, I think I'd be mad that I lost CBS too. That is my Thursday night channel, got to watch Survivor and CSI: Las Vegas.

So how was Jeff Gordon on Sesame Street? I didn't see it and my nephew was out of town. I probably should have recorded it, but I totally forgot about it truthfully. Bad aunt. lol

Hey Garrett! Long time no post on my part. Christmas was so crazy this year, and yet it was so much fun. I was kept pretty busy running here and there and doing this and that. It was great. I was really bummed about having to come back to work, but that's life. lol I haven't heard or read anything about Nascar in about two weeks. I really need to fix that and find out what's going on. Have there been any rule changes yet? I received my Nascar Illustrated magazine last week, but I haven't even taken the time to read it yet. Maybe this weekend. lol

Well, in case I don't get back on here before... Merry Christmas! I hope you have a great one.

That is weird about your parents cable company. I can't believe they are completely getting rid of those channels. That doesn't make any sense to me. Unless they are making it where you have to buy them or something. Maybe they are just switching them to a different channel? That's what my cable company did to me a few months ago. I lost some channels and didn't know what was going on. I was so mad because one of them was the Discovery channel. I finally called them and found out that they had just moved channels on me. They went from 25 to 70. A pretty big jump. The thing that got me though was that they didn't tell anyone that I know of. That happened when I lost my HBO too. One day it was there and the next it was gone. It hadn't moved though, they just took it off the basic cable line-up. Some of the things these cable companies do is just mean.

Well, I've basically gotten all of my christmas shopping done. How 'bout you? I hope it is all going well. Now they are predicting snow for tomorrow. NOT YET! That's what I keep thinking anyway. A few more days and then it will be christmas and it can snow. Then it can melt the day after. lol Does that make me a scrooge? lol

Two weeks 'til Christmas?! Arrrggghhhh!!!! lol Just kidding. Actually I'm pretty close to being done with everything. I've even got most of it wrapped. Which for me, I'm ahead of the game. lol I just have to get my sister in laws gift which I'm pretty sure I know what I'm getting her. And I also have my dad left, but I think the boys are picking him something up and we all are going to split the cost. Supposedly it's kind of expensive. Hopefully that comes through, otherwise I have no idea. I'm ready for it though. I took vacation for all of Christmas week, so I won't be on here at all. I'll be going to my parents and staying all week. It's going to be a good week! I'm looking forward to some time off. How about you? Do you have any extra days off for Christmas?

I have never even heard of the Stewie awards. Huh, learn something new everyday. Even though you've found your answer, as I was reading I was thinking that it was about Gordon and the chair he sat in. I'm pretty sure the Stewart actually took the chair too. It seemed kind of juvenille to me at the time, but hey it's Stewart. He acts that way sometimes. Not as much now that he's an owner, but old habits die hard. lol I don't know if Gordon ever made a comment about all of the hoopla that Stewart created. He probably kept silent and let Stewart make himself look silly. Which he did I think. And apparently he hasn't let it go yet. You think he has low self confidence so the comment about Gordon sitting there ate at him or what?

Hey Garrett! We haven't had that much snow. Brrr! We had a little, but nothing spectacular. Around here it seems the ice likes to hit us. Last Sunday night I drove through the gamut from my parents house to my apartment. It was sleeting at my parents, then I hit rain about halfway home, then here at home it was snowing. That was a crazy drive. Wednesday was a crazy day here too. We had rain Tuesday, and snow Tuesday night, Wednesday morning. A lot of people were sliding off the roads because of the black ice. I never slipped once thank goodness, even when I was coming down off the mountain of a hill I live on. Then it's been sooo cold here. I'm not used to this kind of cold. It was 2 here on Wednesday I think. 2, that's just crazy! I'm happy for Christmas to be here, but do you think if I ask Santa for the gift of Spring he will get mad at me? lol

I haven't seen the article about Dega yet. I will have to look for it. I did see where they officially announced that Danica will be driving for Jr's team first in the Arca series and then moving up to the Nationwide series part time. I really think that will be interesting to watch.

Dega was boring though. Out of all the races, Dega is the one I always know is going to be exciting and hold my interest. This fall it failed in that respect. What I watched of it anyway. I hope some changes for the better are made in the off season, but I won't hold my breath.

I am soo ready for the races to start again. I can stay pretty busy on Saturdays, but on Sunday's I'm looking for something to do. Blah. Come on Daytona!!! I'm ready for ya!

I did get to watch the awards last Friday. They were okay I guess. The host comedian was okay, but like you said he was kind of mean. We did get a kick out of the other comedian though. I thought he was really funny. "GET OUT OF THE LINE!" lol My sister in law and I used that at the mall on Saturday and cracked ourselves up. We did it quietly mind you, not loudly. That would be mean and rude. But it was still funny. I thought most of the drivers seemed nervous. There were a few that seemed pretty sure of themselves though. Most of them their voices were trembly. Like Mark Martin and Kasey Kahne. It was interesting though. I loved seeing Hammond again. It's been too long! And the whole who was wearing what was so funny too. That isn't something you expect to hear from Hammond. lol

Hey Garrett! Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to your messages. Time is flying and I just can't seem to catch up. Everything is fine, I just haven't taken the time to get on the internet at home. I've been busy trying to finish up my knitting. I'm knitting hats for my cousins for Christmas if I haven't told you yet. It's cheap and pretty easy, just time consuming. Plus I'm picky and everything has to be just right. lol Then my boss came up sick with the flu so it's been a little crazy here at work. I finally caught a breather so here I am at last. lol

Okay, so here's my opinion about your dilemma... I think you should record Numbers and watch the awards show. Here's my reasoning behind it. If you recode Numbers, then when you watch it you might find out it is a really, really good one. Since it is recorded, you can watch it all over again as many times as you want too. lol Plus it won't take up as much room on your DVR or VCR tape or whatever you record with. lol Just my opinion. I hope you have a great weekend and I'll talk with you next week!

I didn't even realize that the awards were on tonight. Of course, even though I have cable, I don't have the Speed channel. That makes my weekend plans that much sweeter though. I had planned to spend the night at my brothers house so we can go shopping again on Saturday. He gets the Speed channel. lol So hopefully I will remember to watch some of it. I have never seen the awards show, so this should be interesting. Didn't Gordon win the fastest pit crew award? Of course that is his pit crew, not him. hmmm, I really don't know. I don't even know what kind of awards they give out. lol

Unfortunately, I think Jr will probably be the most popular driver for a while. He's got a lot of things going for him that add up to popularity, even though his driving has been in a slump. A lot of women like him because he's good looking, men like him because he seems like a regular guy and someone they would like to hang out with, and of course who his daddy was. I'm sure there is more, but those are the main three I can think of. The thing with Gordon, and please don't take this the wrong way because I like Gordon, is that even though he has a huge fan base (he has to be right behind Jr) a lot of people just love to hate him. Although not as many people hate him now that Kyle Busch is on the scene. I think some people have transferred their obession with hating to Busch. Does that make any sense? lol

If you find a place like that, no snow or ice and Nascar year around, let know. I want to live there too. Then I could vacation here for Christmas to get my snow for the year. lol

Like I said about Patrick, I'm not sure how I feel about it. Montoya is doing well, but look how long it took him to get up to this level. And it seems like I remember him whining a little at first about all the rubbing and bumping. Hornish Jr is okay, if he can keep from spinning out. I think he will eventually get there with time.

I just scanned a few articles on Nascar.com myself. I thought it might be safe to go on and see if anything new is happening. lol Did you read the article about Carl Edwards? About how he thought someone was stealing his four wheeler? lol That is pretty funny, but I can't believe they were just going to borrow it without asking or saying anything to someone on Carl's team. How crazy. It turned out good in the end, but still...

And what do you think about all of these Danica Patrick rumors flying around? I'm not sure what I think about it. I think it could be good for the sport, but I'm not sure how she would do. Did you see the article with the picture of her in a jumpsuit that had a Nascar logo, Chevy logo, and what could possibly be a JR Motorsports logo. Not sure what's happening, but I'm sure we will find out by February. lol

Well it snowed here yesterday for about 5 or 10 minutes. Then it turned to rain. We didn't get much of that either though. Thank goodness. I like snow, but I don't want it yet. And we haven't really gotten a whole lot of snow here the last few years. Mostly ice, I hate ice. Scary stuff, especially when you are trying to drive home from work. Yuck. lol
