Updated my site, I should say I just modified it a bit, but need to keep up with it a bit more. You can find it HERE .
Also I have not commented on Last weeks Daytona. I am very happy for J-Mac and that team. It was neat to see the Bass Pro Shops car in Victory lane at Daytona since I am or want to be an outdoors person, hunting, fishing, etc.. And it seems he really enjoyed it a lot. He tweets all the time so that was neat too.
The PotHoles - Yes this made the race rather long, and drawn out. Ruined the race for me, as the breaks just take away from the continuity of the race. Daytona is tough to watch anyways due to the restrictor plates. Not my favorite racing but it is Nascar so I won't complain.
Danica saying yesterday that she sucked was quite funny, but honestly who else has the time she is getting to 'figure out' nascar. Other drivers get one or two races and if they don't produce (and don't have money/sponsorship) they are gone. I guess thats what we get with her, it's nice it will add some fans, but I am already sick of the "Danica" updates. Or "Danica has raced her way to 31st", well if you call racing your way to 31st due to others dropping out then ....
It sux, she took the ride away from Kelly Bires at Daytona. Although I don't think he could have competed with the Gibbs cars he is now one race behind the curve, I would not be surprised to see him have a great year, but maybe we talk about what could have been.......
Getting into electronics and projects these days, been building some kits, and some simple projects. Currently working on a 3x3 LED cube tied to a Arduino. I will post some pictures and commentary as I get closer to the finish. I enjoy it, gets me away from the TV and stimulates my brain...
Enough for now!

Can you believe it, life has meaning again! The racing season is just hours away, as the trucks tonight haul it off into turn 1 at Daytona! I am very happy to have Nascar in my life again, it seems things were not fulfilling enough for me until now. My life has meaning, all in the world is good again. Of course this doesn't apply to work, but hey you can't have your cake and eat it too they say.
I am once again looking for a strong season from Hendrick Motorsports, I was bummed to see Jeff ruin his primary car yesterday, but after seeing what JJ did in a back up I am not all that worried. Those guys are good! I am sure things will be just fine.
What about the Old man and the Kid (well not anymore) on the front row. I think the off season has done wonders for the 88, with the 5 and the 88 emulating the 24 and 48 teams I think we should expect big things from both of them. Junior seems to be in the right 'place' in his head too. Of course getting off to a bad start can sour that, but I sense a good year for him, hell in the even years he always does well, just take a look.
The weather is just crazy the last couple weeks. The NE is just packing in like Eskimos, and we (South) aren't faring much better, I was watching the news last night and saw it snowing BIG time in Dallas. Amazing. Global warming is here!!! 
Ok will keep the blog updated more often as I have something to blog about now. Chow/peace/c-ya/etc...
