MARCH 9TH 2008
WEATHER; COOL, LOW HUMIDITY, 23/67 DEGREES
GAS; $3.08-$3.19
ANSWER TO POP QUIZ; “THE SHADOW KNOWS”
I REALIZE YOU CAN LOOK THE ANSWER TO THESE UP ON THE INTERNET BUT IF YOU TRY TO REMEMBER IT’S BETTER THAN BEING GIVEN THE ANSWER!
POP QUIZ; WHAT OLD RADIO SHOW DID “WHEATIES” SPONSOR?
GARY AND CHARLEEN LATINIS CAME OUT FOR A VISIT AND FOR MOM TO DO SOME SPECIAL COMPUTER WORK FOR THEM! WE HAD A GOOD VISIT AND GARY AND I WATCHED THE NASCAR RACE!
I’M WAITING FOR THE 29TH OF MARCH, THAT’S WHEN THE IRL/CHAMP CAR RACING SEASON STARTS! NASCAR IS STILL THE SAME OLD STUFF! I WILL SAY ONE THING; AS LONG AS JEFF GORDON CAN STAY OUT FRONT HE DOES FINE BUT AS SOON AS HE GETS PUSHED BACK IN THE FIELD HE FALLS APART, HE JUST CAN’T DRIVE IN TRAFFIC ANY MORE!
GARY AND I WERE TALKING ABOUT THE OLDER DRIVERS THAT ARE RETIRING, THEY’RE GETTING “CAUTIOUS”! IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE A LEADER AND A CHAMPION YOU’VE GOT TO THROW CAUTION TO THE WIND! THE YOUNG DRIVERS PROVE THIS! THEY’RE LIKE AN 18 YEAR OLD IN COMBAT NO FEAR WE CALLED IT GUNG-HO! THAT’S WHAT THEY’RE TRAINED TO DO IN BASIC, GO DO IT THEN THINK ABOUT IT
WHEN A RACE DRIVER STARTS TO “THINK” ABOUT MAKING A MOVE ON THE CAR AHEAD OF HIM HE’S SHOWING “CAUTION” AND THAT’S WHAT WILL GET YOU HURT OR KILLED! YOU MUST BE “CAREFUL” TO SURVIVE BUT NOT CAUTIOUS! DALE GARRETT IS RETIRING, BILL ELLIOT HAS ALREADY RETIRED, DARRELL WALTRIP HAS RETIRED, IT DOESN’T MEAN THEY’LL NEVER DRIVE AGAIN, IT SIMPLY MEANS THEY KNOW THEIR LIMITS AND DON’T WANT TO PRESS THEIR LUCK! BILL ELLIOT STILL DRIVES THE 21 CAR ON OCCASSIONS BUT IF THERE’S A YOUNG DRIVER WHO SHOWS PROMISE HE’LL LET THEM DRIVE # 21 IF THE TEAM AGREES!
WE’RE STILL WAITING FOR MIKE TO COME AND LOOK AT THE CEDER TREE, KELLY SAYS HE THINKS IT’S DANGEROUS AND TODAY GARY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THE SAME THING! THERE ARE TWO MAIN TRUNKS AND THEY’RE TOGETHER FOR ABOUT 2 FEET FROM THE GROUND, THEN THEY START PARTING AND ABOUT 10 FEET UP THEY’RE 3-4 FEET APART! THESE ARE BIG TRUNKS, I DIDN’T MEASURE BUT MY GUESS WOULD BE THEY’RE ALL OF 21/2 FEET IN CIRCUMFERENCE OR 10-14 INCHES IN DIAMETER!
WHAT WORRIES US IS IF, THE TREES WERE TO SEPARATE AT THE GROUND AND FALL, THE NORTH ONE WOULD TAKE THE DECK, LIVING ROOM AND DINNING ROOM WITH IT! THE SOUTH ONE WOULD JUST FALL IN THE YARD AND MIGHT HIT THE WALNUT TREE WHICH WE WANT CUT DOWN ANY HOW, THE WALNUT HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY GOOD AND THEY FALL ON THE LAWN AND IF THEY’RE NOT PICKED UP THEY RAISE HELL WITH THE MOWER BLADES AND THE MOWER DECK DRIVE BELT!
KIDS IN SCHOOL; ONE DAY A LITTLE BLACK BOY WAS LATE FOR SCHOOL AND WHEN HE GOT TO THE CLASS ROOM THE TEACHER ASKED HIM;
‘GEORGE WASHINGTON JONES, WHY ARE YOU LATE TO SCHOOL TODAY?”
HE ANSWERED; “WELL, YOU SEE TEACHER, MY MOTHER HAD A BICYCLE THIS MORNING!”
THE TEACHER TOLD HIM HE BETTER GO SEE THE PRINCIPAL AND BRING A NOTE BACK!
ON THE WAY TO THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE HE THOUGHT HE BETTER CHANGE HIS STORY SINCE THE TEACHER DIDN’T BELIEVE HIM
WHEN HE GOT TO THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE THE TEACHER HAD ALREADY SENT A NOTE AHEAD OF HIM!
GEORGE WASHINGTON JONES WHY WERE YOU LATE TO SCHOOL THIS MORNING
HE ANSWERED; “WELL, YOU SEE SIR, MY MOTHER HAD A MOTORCYCLE THIS MORNING!”
“I’M SORRY GEORGE, YOU’LL HAVE TO GO HOME AND GET A NOTE FROM YOUR DADDY!”
WHEN GEORGE GOT HOME AND WENT IN THE HOUSE HIS DADDY WAS UP STAIRS AND YELLED DOWN, “GEORGE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HOME?”
GEORGE YELLED BACK, “WHAT WAS IT MOTHER HAD THIS MORNING?”
“YOUR MOTHER HAD A MISCARRIAGE!”
GEORGE SAID TOO HIMSELF “I KNEW IT HAD WHEELS!”
THAT’S “30” FOR THIS ISSUE.
