Well that was cool, we all postponed our last break to 3pm to see it. It was neat seeing the ring. The birds all got quiet and the frogs started going off, then when it started getting lighter again the opposite happened. 
 
My brother in law started a GoFundMe if anyone cares to give hime a helping hand.

I think William Byron is going to win the championship this year, he is on fire, 3 wins already out of 8 races so far.

I do. I love cats. I have a cat that lives at my parents house named Waylon and I have a cat that lives with me and my dog at my apartment named Wrigley. Pets are the bessssttttt! 

I do , I have a previously owned cat. 
Speaking of cats, the little runt beat up the vet assistant last week at her annual checkup . I was like she's just 6.5 lbs, I carry her around in one arm lol. I guess she's learned a lot during our wrestling matches . 

Haven't visited the site in a while as it has been a tumultous couple of weeks. I'll get the bad news out of the way 1st... The wife and I were involved in a scary violent incident Monday instigated by a person that doesn't even live here and hopefully after the wife's restraining order gets approved we won't ever have to worry about dealing with him again. That's about all I'll say till after the court hearings. Me and the wife are ok though but our nerves are still a bit rattled. We're now thinking about getting our CCW permits and buying a gun which we never really ever thought we'd need before.
 
Now the good news... This little lady walked up to our place a few weeks ago. Have no idea where she came from or who owned her since nobody has called to claim her even the person who spent the money having her microchipped, so we're bringing her home in a couple of weeks. Have her at my dads right now till everything calms down here and we can introduce her to our cat.

LOL This Roger Duke guy is weird. Who cares about the price of used cats?

Where I work it looks like we will be on the edge of totality, I already said I'm working in my building as my boss already said we could take a few minutes to go outside and view it, in fact he gave everyone eclipse glasses this week. 
""This surprises me considering the price of used cars.""
I was shocked too, someone is going to buy it and fix it and sell it as a rebuilt title, only the side airbags went off and only the passenger doors and B pillar is damaged. Windshield, A and C pillars, rear quarter panel and front fender are fine. Let's just say I'm glad I'm not a customer of that company that has a certain late show host, rapper and former governor as shills. Luckily both my wife and i's cars have GAP insurance through our insurance company.
 

Well he heard back from his insurance, they totaled it out, their reasoning is any car 5 years or older with $3,000 or more damage gets automatically totaled. Unfortunately for him he didn't get the GAP insurance so now he's out of a car and still owes $5k on it because he bought it for more than it was worth instead of shopping around for a better deal. 

Brother in laws car was ransacked up in Michigan in the yard that it was towed to after the accident. His insurance had it towed to their lot here in Ohio and he went to get some personal items Monday and everything in the interior is gone except registration and the manual. Luckily they didn't grab mother in laws scooter out of the trunk. They even took the gas door  probably even stole the gas out of the car. I think insurance will get his car fixed as the damage is just the doors and b pillar.

I feel for you Cousin! I sure hope it gets better for you! You just remember, your favorite car salesman and drinking buddy/town drunk, is in your corner! Hey, I'll even GIVE you a fifth of my finest, next time you're at the car lot!  
  Honestly, my heart goes out to you and if you ever want to talk, I'm here for you! Just PM me!

What a week. Temp's in my wife's building were a bunch of no shows no calls so guess who got volunteered to go back there the whole week, to top it off my boss told clients we could get orders out ASAP, that didn't go so well since I was working in the other building. My coworkers managed to get one order done and shipped. 
Wednesday my brother in law decided to take his mom on a day trip up to Ann Arbor and ended up getting T-boned by a red light running college kid. But of course he left the dashcam at home and no witnesses stuck around to tell the police so his word against theirs. Anyways had to drive all the way up there to pick them up at the hospital and take them home back here in Ohio. Didn't get home that night till 10:30 and went to bed without dinner. 
Have a good Easter everyone.

Since the day they was born

Well y'all car 24 was back in Victory Lane after today's COTA road race. Too bad Jeff Gordon wasn't driving it. He use to be known as the road race king as he was good at them. But so is William Byron, who now drives the 24 car for Hendrick. Still great to see 24 car in Victory Lane. (Though I was hoping for the 9 car. Elliott needs to figure something out...LOL)

They'll definitely predict what to do with that  

I didn't bother writing a report for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix two weeks ago because although there were a few good fights down the field, it finished as another Red Bull 1-2. I will give a special mention to Oliver Bearman who was a last minute stand-in for Ferrari and finished seventh in his first ever grand prix at just 18 years old.

Today's race was the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. Max Verstappen claimed another pole, but was overtaken Ferrari's Carlos Sainz on the second lap. Max suffered a rare technical failure two laps later and had to retire his Red Bull when one of his rear brakes caught fire. Lewis Hamilton also retired at nearly one third distance when his Mercedes engine failed. His team mate George Russell crashed on the last lap leaving Mercedes pointless in Australia. Carlos Sainz went on to win the race with his team mate Charles Leclerc in second, followed by the McLarens of Lando Norris and local hero Oscar Piastri in third and fourth. Sergio Perez could only manage fifth in the second Red Bull. Carlos Sainz's victory was even more impressive because he missed the last race with appendicitis.

I watched the bristol race and I guess I'm in the minority thinking it was a lousy race. Tires barely lasted 40-45 laps and it seems only JGR teams could manage it leaving everyone else a few seconds behind trying to conserve tires. Goodyear and NASCAR even gave all the teams an extra set of tires. You know maybe it's time NASCAR allowed a full day of practice again to suss out stuff like this so they know ahead of time what might become an issue.
