What were you doing there? I suppose it was an emergency. Do you know the difference between a security guard and a janitor? One has a better jacket.

I overheard a really good conversation of a fan with himself on late Friday afternoon in the Sportsman Pit Area at Pomona.
I was walking the wife's dog along the fence with the general parking lot and a fan who had had a little to much to drink of adult beverages was stumbling along the fence looking for a way to get out to the parking lot.
He would look up and down the fence line then ask "Where the H---- is the Gate?" then walk one direction a few steps then look back ask the same question and walk the other direction.
I just told him to follow the fence to the end and he would find a gate.
He thanked me and stumbled off toward the gate at the end of the track.
I just hope he did not try to drive away once in the parking lot. There was no way he could manage that.
Where is security when you need them?
Sort of funny but not really either...

Made my trip on my motorcycle from Vegas to Pomona and I stopped at a gas station in Hesperia CA and the kids asked about the bike and where I was going. Told them to the World Finals and they wanted to know what kind of racing it was and what town. Half hour from track and they knew nothing about the races. Good advertising NHRA to the young ones.
Also I was so bummed out about the crappy weather and didnt want to spend the money to watch half of a race and left town to beat the weather. Thanks for the Shilo Inn tip the place was very nice and friendly.

I was researching for my weekly fashion column.

That's truly funny. Log onto a site called Women of Walmart and view the slide show of the side show.This will convince you of the imminent extinction of humanity.
