  1. I guess I don't know much about the Stewie awards nor did I pay that much attention to them, but read who won what. I came expecting big was said, apparently not by what I gathered. I don't know...I just don't understand how something like that would get an award...

    Listening to the press pass, it surprised me with Stewart's attitude. He won the race but he seemed frustrated with the media. I guess it is no big deal to me or shouldn't be since it has been over two months ago, but just surprised me going back to it and listening to it...I didn't listen to it back then, but did now to hear what was said that was good enough for an award. Well now I know. LOL

  2. Well never mind with my question about the Stewie awards...I finally found the answer after looking through a few sites that I had googled. And boy if that was the most quote of the season, then it must have been pretty boring season as of what the drivers said.

    The fans on nascar.com were right...it was Stewart being sarcastic. It was a press pass interview with Stewart after he won Kansas in October with Gordon coming in second. One of the media people asking questions began by stating that Jeff Gordon had been in the room and Stewart acted all surprised and or awed by the fact Gordon was there and even more so when they said he sat in the same chair he had been sitting in. Made a big deal over the chair asking if he could have the chair and maybe Gordon could sign it for him. (that was what the award was for)

  4. Well two more weeks til Christmas...you ready? I still have to shop for my parents and have no clue whatsoever to get them. It'd be nice if they would at least tell me what t hey want instead of telling me not to get them anything. LOL. (As if I'll listen ;) ). I can't believe it is this time of year already.

    Hope you will have a nice weekend. :D

  5. OK I am so puzzled by something...mayb eyou can help me out. I don't know. I read through who all won an award on the Stewie awards hosted by Stewart earlier this month. Gordon won an award for what he said after the Kansas race...Stewart said he was in awe? I can't remember the Kansas race to begin off with not alone with what Gordon said that was so memorable about it.

    I took it that Gordon said something. But the article I read on it was on NASCAR.com and the people or fans that commented on it made it sound like Stewart said something sarcastically about Gordon? I am so confused. I have tried looking it up online and so far haven't come up with anything. Just thought I'd ask you to see if you could think what it may be. It would have been nice if they said what Gordon or Stewart said that got the award.

  6. Anyway...I found Hammond picking out on everyone's dresses funny. I don't think any one else could have gotten by with it as well and as comically as he did. I miss him and Waltrip. LOL. I agree with you. I am soooo ready for Daytona.

  7. Very understandable...time does fly and I bet those are time consuming. But I bet very worthwhile - they sound to be good Christmas gifts! Glad to hear all is well there. It is freezing cold here...Monday night (I think) through Wedensday it snowed and and all that off and on. In fact the day care I work at closed for it Wednesday so I got a free day off fro m it. I am so ready for spring and Winter isn't even officially here yet.

  8. Thank-you for the help Roger.

  9. BRRRR TexasDaisy...sounds way too cold for me. Right now and throughout today I can hear the wind outside my window. It sounds like tonight and tomorrow is suppose to be cold here as well. It was today too, had to take my dog out a few times and she did not like it. Boy who doesn't like a day off? LOL. I enjoy each day off I can get...unless it is to go to the doctors or what not, then I'd rather be at work. LOL. But a free day off due to weather, that is the only positive thing that comes from the winter. Of course all of that is my own opinion. Glad he likes his job so much...I like mine as well, though do enjoy time away as well.
  10. I agree it wasn't the most exciting race as Dega normally is, but also agree with NASCAR that the announcers talked about it a lot and too often. A journalist or someone from ESPN said the announcers job was to say what his happening on and off the track and to stay impartial. Had to kinda laugh at that when they said they were just doing their job, because I don't find the announcers at ESPN to be all that impartial. I guess that is my opinion.

    They said Darrell Waltrip and Kyle Petty were just as outspoken as they are and they encourage that. To me, Waltrip and Petty are more positive than they are. (My opinion of course).

    OK the article didn't say anything new, but had to say something of NASCAR. Sorry to bore you with it. ;)

  11. Hope everything is OK with you. . .Also hope I didn't bore you to death with all my other posts! As I told you, once I start talking NASCAR, I can't stop.

    Just read an article on NASCR.com about Dega's race...NASCAR didn't appreciate the ESPN's announcers criticizing their decisions before the race and what not - about bump drafting not being aloud and will be punished. Found it ironic that they just posting that now, about a month later. LOL. I think what they had a problem with was how much the complained about the single file racing and their choice.

  12. The Night the Lights went out in Georgia - Reba
  13. LOL Roger I know the feeling. Another quote from "Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane" (I am not a hundred percent sure it was Boss who said it, but I think it was him.) To Rosco or Cletus: "You wouldn't find the floor if you fell out of bed"
  14. You forget about me? Or are you just ignoring me? LOL. (Just joking) How are you?

  15. Hi Roger...I had a question about an episode and instantly thought of you. It is probably one that I could look up myself by watching the episode, but feel too lazy to do it at the moment (plus would interrupt my writing for my xmas story) so I thought I'd ask you. Swamp Molly...how is she related to Jesse and the rest of the Dukes? As well as Alice...I know they call her Cousin ALice so I assume she is a cousin. Also how is Alice related to Molly?

    Maybe they don't really say in the episode and if not, you probably wouldn't know, but thought I'd at least ask and see what you know about them. Thanks!

  16. Daney - out of curiosity, if it was a nice experience then why are you struggling with Hazzard County? Sorry if I am prying, you don't have to answer it if you don't want to, just something that got me wondering. I'd hate to see anyone struggling with Hazzard or the Dukes.
  17. Well I guess I owe you a thanks now Roger since I got a free day off today . YAY...at least something positive came about with this snow and wind. I watched my first two Duke episodes in what seems to be forever! I watched "The Great Santa Clause Chase" for Christmas and then went back an episode and watched "Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane". It was great to see the boys and Uncle Jesse once more. You almost have to laugh with Bo when he begins to laugh. Gotta love the Dukes...and now I am finally motivated to write. Now if only my muses would work with me, my day would be perfect! So thanks Roger for cursing on the snow. (Though tomorrow I may feel differently when I actually have to drive in it to work unless by some far off chance I get another day off. Which I find very unlikely)
  18. BRRR TexasDaisy. I am glad that you had help with all that. Sounds like we'll be getting the wind tonight and tomorrow as well. Thanks Roger, that would be appreciated. Hopefully I will not need Cooter, but you never know with my car. It don't do well with stopping in the snow/ice or turning. (hope you know I was only giving you a hard time). All is forgiven...especially if they cancel work due to it. We already are starting two hours late...I can surely use the extra sleep. (Fingers crossed that they close...then at least one good thing will come out of this dang weather. LOL...almost as bad as I was in school hoping for a snow day.)
  19. Silent Night (Roger...I am getting the idea that you like Elvis or something )
  20. All I want for Christmas is a real good Tan - Kenny Chesney
  21. I want to thank you Roger...I think you have cursed me and cursed me good you did. LOL. It has snowed off and on today...we are predicted to have six to twelve inches of snow and have blizzard like condition starting at midnight through the entire day. Plus cold weather to top it all off. Yeah...thanks a lot Roger . Sorry couldn't help myself, afterall, someone has to be to blame. Right? I guess Winter is unofficially here.
  22. I have just began a Christmas story...hopefully I can have it finished by Christmas.
