    THe one bad things about the Indycar race today..........the DVR clipped off the end of the race. Now I have to go look to see who won!

    Now that I've seen the results, Congrats to Simona Di Silvestro........her highest finish in a race to date.

    Not to TV coverage of Indycar: There are other women driving in the races, and doing better. Why not interview them for a change?

    Di Silvestro had a nasty wreck today at practice for the 500. I think
    the car flipped twice and burst into flames.

    From the looks of that crash she is lucky that a hand burn is all she recieved from the crash. It looked like burning fuel was running right where she would have been after the crash. Her hands may have been the only part of her body that weren't properly protected by a fire retardant suit.

    I watched Danica putting on her garb in the hot-pits at Barber, and I wondered how in the world could they see, to drive, with all those layers of fire suit.

    Yup - tomorrow (5/21) is Judgement Day, and the world will come to an end at 6 p.m. - that's what I heard on the news this a.m. Guess I don't need to bother deciding what to fix for Sunday dinner!

    I don't guess it will do much good to setup my DVR to record the race, now will it. If the world doesn't end on May21 then I'm sure the 2012 thing with the Mayan's Calendar will get us for sure.

    At least we will be able to finish the season and get some football in?
