I bet the rehab nurses and PT's threw a party Friday as my dad got released. Going to have to see if a local Starbucks or Tim Hortons has a bunch of $5 gift cards to hand out to them as an apology for his behavior. I don't know what has gotten into him but my patience is wearing thinner than a strand of hair. The way he has treated his brother the past few months is shameful. Friday I had my fill, told my dad he should be nicer but he didn't like hearing that so I left before I said something I'd regret. I came home and finished off a bottle of JD.

Penske Enterprise which owns the track and Indycar series is giving her a new car Interesting how far nascar has strayed from its roots. Chase Elliott has been parked for one race for spinning Denny Hamlin into the wall. Growing up watching nascar in the 1980's driver's rarely got penalized this severely for wrecking opponents. Usually the drivers worked it out amongst themselves or the France's would slap them with a huge fine. Corey Lajoie will be driving the #9 this weekend.

So this week keeps getting crazier While at work yesterday I received a notification from my ring camera... https://ring.com/share/f1612370-321b-4e03-9548-befc12c5e11b A careless idiot neighbor threw his cigarette butt in the dry grass. This is the 2nd video of the fire. After seeing this and noticing our next door neighbor wasn't out yet I did a 100m sprint to my wife's work building to get her phone and called the neighbor to alert her to get out. When she got to the door with her dog the maintenance guy for the neighboring property was able to put the fire out with a garden hose before it spread to any of the buildings.

Been a weird holiday weekend so far. My dad got triple bypass surgery Friday, he's doing ok but has a long way to go. Crazy neighbors next door got the boot out finally. However now there's a new crazy neighbor in the next building over . Cops have been here 3 days in a row for her. We came home from the hospital Friday and she was in the parking lot screaming obscenities at everyone, have no idea why. I live streamed the Ring camera to catch it on video. After talking with the on site maintenance about her I will be sending the video to management.

You know some times I think God is a woman. Wife talked me into seeing if the bank would approve me for the Camaro, so I went there yesterday to apply. Just as they approved me it got sold. What the . It's been sitting on their lot for almost 6 months then all the sudden I'm interested and poof.

Richard Petty has no stake in the team anymore that's why it's called Legacy MotorClub Racing. Maury Gallagher bought out Petty's stake then sold it to Jimmie. Toyota must've threw a big number at them to switch from getting Hendrick motorsports stuff.

I just threw up a little https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2023/05/02/legacy-mc-will-switch-to-toyota-in-2024-jimmie-johnson/ Never thought I'd see the day the #43 would be on a Toyota, or Jimmie Johnson aligning with Toyota.

The one I test drove was dark blue with white stripes. Was fully loaded but I didn't like the moonroof, that alone took an extra 1.5-2 inches of headroom in an already tight space. There's one I've been eyeing for a few months that still hasn't been sold that's silver with black stripes, I'm thinking the dealer might be interested in making a deal since they've been stuck with it for so long. After we got the Regal I wasn't really looking but our mechanic said my little red Saturn might be destined for the junkyard or I could throw more money at it replacing the front suspension. I'll have a talk with our banker this week and see what they say.

After a lousy Saturday morning with my dad and uncle a friend took me out to test drive fun cars to cheer me up. Test drove a V6 Camaro that left me smiling the rest of the day. I don't think it was factory stock V6 as it sure didn't move like a V6. The exhaust was modified as it had a nice low thrumble. Great price too, such a great price everyone is telling me to go for it even though I'm trying to be practical in my next vehicle purchase lol.

They'd probably race an ev body with the V8 or keep racing the Camaro body for 2025.

This is the 2nd one after it came out that the first one was a bit staged. Member

Kids these days I swear...here we are busting a** at work while one of our coworker's called in sick. Turns out he isn't sick at all, he's selling crap on some app called Whatnot or something. One of my other coworkers is live streaming this online sale. Hope the boss sees it too and gives him a good reaming. No wonder this country is in the mess it's in with bums like this.

William Byron is kicking butt today, so far won both stages.

Yeah it's on Fox. There is weather in the area and the race start has been pushed back to close to 4pm. Pretty good chance to get the full race in but with all the weird weather California is getting this week it might be postponed or rain shortened.
