  1. I'll be happy when I'm done with the prescription meds for the severe poison ivy reaction I got a few weeks ago. I go from being backed up for a day or two to not being able to leave the house the next because of several bathroom trips. To top it off the one pill gives me the foggy, head detached from your body feeling and sometimes fall asleep out of the blue so I can't drive after I take it. I don't know how some people can take that pill regularly but I guess your body build's up a tolerance for it. Here's another file for the you've got to be joking folder... And plumbers this warning is for you... It's now offensive if you're pants are baggy and falling off your waist if you're not of a certain color. According to an article I read over the weekend it's racist and gentrification if you do . So plumber's better pull them pants up and belts tight so you won't be labeled offensive by the whiney generation.

    Martin Truex Jr won a snorefest of a race Saturday night at Richmond Raceway. By the end of the 2nd stage Denny Hamlin had lapped almost 3/4's of the field, I decided to go to bed as I figured the racing wouldn't get much better and from the highlight reels on YouTube it didn't. Chase Elliott seemed to be the only non JGR car that could give Denny a challenge but a pit road mistake put him a lap down, but he managed to drive back up to finish 4th. It would have been a JGR sweep if not for Kyle Busch getting a pit road speeding penalty late in the race. At the end only 9 cars were on the lead lap. It's funny Nascar failed Kyle Larson's car twice in inspection which forced him to start at the rear instead of the pole position yet the JGR cars were lapping everybody else, maybe they should have given the JGR Toyota's a closer look. As it stands now Alex Bowman, William Byron, Michael McDowell and Tyler Reddick will be eliminated from the playoffs at Bristol next Saturday night unless one of them wins the race. Top 10 1 Martin Truex Jr 2 Denny Hamlin 3 Christopher Bell 4 Chase Elliott 5 Joey Logano 6 Kyle Larson 7 Ross Chastain 8 Kevin Harvick 9 Kyle Busch 10 Ryan Blaney

    Some videos of the Next Gen Cup car Daytona testing. I hope they don't change a thing about the engine sound, those sound awesome
  4. My dad and uncle tried to do some Three Stooges plumbing repairs over the weekend and now my dad doesn't have hot water . I told my dad you should have just called a plumber in the first place since you know the house was not brought up to code when you bought it in the late 90's. Now it's going to cost him more because the plumber has to fix their screw ups along with the original problem. You'd think my dad would learn from his penny pinching mistakes but no he just makes more over and over again. Of course it doesn't help when his brothers enable him instead of saying "No hire a professional".

    For his dangerous actions after wrecking at Darlington Kyle Busch has been fined $50,000 https://m.nascar.com/news-media/2021/09/07/kyle-busch-fined-for-violations-at-darlington-raceway/ In my opinion they should have made this sting a bit more, $50k is a drop in the bucket for him considering his annual salary is most likely in the millions. $250,000 and maybe some points taken away would have been a nice deterrent to more of his childish outbursts.

    Well that was the weirdest Southern 500 finish I've ever seen, even caught the commentators off guard, they thought Denny's car had an issue. To me it appears Denny Hamlin slowed way down in turn 3 which caught Kyle Larson off guard and Kyle wrecked trying to avoid running into the back of Denny. For a few playoff contenders it was a bad race. Michael McDowell got loose and hit the inside wall early in the race. Two Hendrick Motorsports teammate's William Byron and Alex Bowman bounced off of each other on lap 14. Kyle Busch got loose when Austin Dillon was trying to pass on the inside and hit the wall. The crowd erupted in cheers as Kyle threw one of his famous tantrums and drove his car straight to the teams hauler nearly hitting someone in the process which of course got him a ticket to the Nascar Officials hauler. In his interview he blamed his team as usual. William Byron suffered a tire deflation after one of the tire changers accidentally knocked the valve stem off the LF tire and hit turn 1 wall. Ryan Blaney suffered a brake failure late in the race. Top 10 1 Denny Hamlin 2 Kyle Larson 3 Ross Chastain 4 Martin Truex Jr 5 Kevin Harvick 6 Kurt Busch 7 Brad Keselowski 8 Joey Logano 9 Chris Buescher 10 Austin Dillon Apparently Front Row Motorsports is not dropping out of the Cup series in 2022 but that's all they'll say at the moment https://www.jayski.com/2021/09/02/23xi-racing-working-on-deal-with-front-row-motorsports-for-charter-merger/ Official: Ryan Preece is out at JTGDaugherty Racing. Ricky Stenhouse Jr will be driving the team's lone entry in the 2022 season https://www.jayski.com/2021/09/02/jtg-daugherty-racing-plans-to-run-one-full-time-team-in-2022/ Just got around to listening to this Dale Jr Download podcast with his brother Kerry Earnhardt https://www.dirtymomedia.com/dalejrdownload/episode/26e22c75/341-kerry-earnhardt-accepted-or-rejected Definitely worth your time to listen to if you're an Earnhardt fan. I won't spoil it but there's some great stories, some funny ones and sad ones. Theresa, wow what a , talk about cold hearted.
  8. Now I've seen everything... Flipping through the channels earlier and on CBS they had a Cornhole Championship game on. When did this become a nationally televised sport heck when did this even become a sport.?. Then my wife tells me one of her coworker's spent $500 on pro tournament Cornhole boards .
  9. Hit the junkyard today to get the steering wheel off my old car, which turned out to be easier than expected. Was also hoping to get a better trunk for the Saturn but the lock mechanism was broke on the car I was going to get it off of. Turns out I didn't need to sell my car to the junkyard after all. After getting grief from my dad and uncle about how my car was keeping him from getting the trees cut down. Turns out my dad thought of another excuse to not get them cut down since he couldn't use my car being in the way anymore. Just pisses me off All he ever does anymore is come up with excuses not to get stuff done. Whatever, if another branch falls off that tree and hits the neighbors house she already said she'll take him to court and I hope she does. Hope y'all have a good Labor day weekend
  10. My Saturn was made there. They were actually good reliable cars till some dipstick beancounter at GM decided to force Saturn to share platforms, engines and transmissions etc... with the other brands and the Ion is what came out of that and ruined the reliability.

    JTGDaugherty will shrink to a one car team for 2022, No decision on who the driver will be https://www.jayski.com/2021/08/31/jtg-daugherty-racing-plans-to-run-one-full-time-team-in-2022/ So either Ryan Preece or Ricky Stenhouse jr will be without a ride for 2022.

    Its really unfortunate that F1 doesn't postpone a race a day or two in extreme circumstances like this one. They should look into changing that rule. I hope all the fans in attendance got a refund, if not a refund then free tickets to next year's race there.

  15. I'd be heading to the nearest Ferrari dealership with that check in hand, then again could head to the Chevy dealership and buy his and her Corvette's and still have plenty of money left over. Someone bought a house up the road for half a million but the house also sits on 5+acres of land. The management of these apartments is so stupid. Had to make an emergency maintenance call because our kitchen faucet sprung a leak. Maintenance guy installed a new faucet but had to Jerry rig the hoses because the ones that came with the faucet weren't long enough and he couldn't just go to Lowe's, Home Depot etc... to just get longer ones. They can only use what's in the storage shed if it ain't there then you're S.O.L. till they can order it and it gets delivered. And now the Jerry rigged hoses are leaking so got to wait till our regular maintenance guy gets in tomorrow to see if he can fix it.
