WTF

WTF???

My friend and I were out shopping at a local craft show that was in town and waiting to purchase some fudge and suddenly out of nowhere this lady struck up the following conversation with me.

(Sidenote: I only wear NASCAR t-shirts on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.)

Fat Skank (as she looks at my shirt): Are you really a Kevin Harvick fan or do you just wear the shirt?
Me: Yes, I am a Kevin Harvick fan. I also like Tony Stewart too.
FS: I was just wondering. We also like Tony too, but were Little E fans.
Me: I like him too.

Now at first this didn’t really bother me because I like it when I meet NASCAR fans, but the more I thought about the more it began to piss me off. I am thinking WTF! Is she the “Kevin Harvick” police? Is she making sure people who wear a Kevin Harvick shirt are truly a Kevin Harvick fan? Should I have asked her if she was an Earhardt fan or does she just wear the t-shirt? If you know me, you know I just don’t wear the shirt. If this woman would have looked carefully, she would have seen (along with my shirt) my Tony Stewart earrings, my Tony Stewart watch, and my race car charm bracelet with a “29” on it. Too bad my cell phone didn’t ring while standing there, she would have heard my ringtone “I Love NASCAR”. I could have show her the picture of Postman and myself sitting on the pit wall at Texas Motor Speedway!

Of course, I don’t feel so bad now when I kept encouraging her bad mannered children to try all the flavors of the fudge!–he he!!!

Happy Birthday!

I’m So Sad

Congrats to Kasey Kahne for winning yet another pole this season. That’s 3 poles in point races (Atlanta, Texas, Darlington) and now the pole for the All-Star Race which makes 4!

Unfortunately, I was able to watch Elliott’s qualifying run…DAMN!! I am so sad! I guess I didn’t eat enough M&Ms today. I am hoping Elliott can race his way in if not he hope he is voted in. The race commentators mentioned that Elliott was one of the top three vote getters with Kyle Petty and Martin Truex Jr. There were quite a few cars that spun out as well as a few trucks. Hopefully, the resurfacing did its job. We shall see with the truck race.

Congrats to Erin Crocker for qualifying 2nd for the truck race tonight. She is the first woman to qualify for the front row in a truck race. Good Luck Erin!

I am now going to have bite the bullet and subscribe to Sirius satellite radio. Beginning January 2007, Tony will have his own show on Sirius radio. Preview editions of Tony Stewart Live will run October 2006.

Winners

Congrats to #1 Martin Truex’s pit crew for winning the 2006 Nextel Pit Crew Challenge.

Fox’s Sexiest Driver

Well folks, we are down to the Final Four.

Michael Waltrip vs Jimmie Johnson and Dale Jarrett vs Jeff Gordon

First up…Mikey vs Unibrow…get the vote out! Mikey is ahead of Unibrow!

No HMS driver should be in the finals!

Head on over and vote as many times as you can here! And once again as I always say…vote early and vote often!

Goodbyes, Season Finales, & Sole Survivor

I have watched quite a bit of telvision this week. I do watch other shows–I have to fill the time between NASCAR weekends.

Two of my favorite shows said good-bye this week–The West Wing and Will & Grace. Both finales were pretty good. I will miss West Wing more than Will & Grace however. I guess I will have to get my West Wing fix on Bravo and with my box sets.

I am a Grey’s Anatomy fan. I started watching it mid way through the first season because there wasn’t anything else on Sunday nights at 9. I think part of the reason I got hooked was because of Patrick Dempsey. I have always like him as an actor. My favorite movie of his “

1. Denny receives a heart, proposes to Izzy, Izzy says yes, and then Denny dies. The most poignant part of this story line…when Izzy breaks down in Alex’s arms. He has been kind of jerk towards her lately, but when she needed a friend he was there for her.

2. Enough already with Meredith and Dr. McDreamy. When it looked like Meredith had moved on with Doc’s vet…Derek wakes up and realizes he wants to be with Mer. I think she should have gone with Finn

3. Love George, however I don’t like him with Callie. I don’t know why, I just don’t

4. I love Bailey–favorite line from the episode “Where are all my suck ups?”

5. Christina and Burke have grown on me. I think Christiina likes to be in control of her life and when things are beyond her control she freaks. I think she realized how important Burke is to her.

I haven’t had a chance to watch the CSI or ER season finale. Postman was at union meeting and he also wanted to watch them so they were TIVOed.

Congratulations to Aras for being the sole survivor. I tried to keep up with this one as much as I could. I wanted Terry to win because he great player. However I was glad to see Aras win. He was always bringing his “A” game and I can respect that. That’s why if I had been on the jury I would have voted for Aras. I really like Survivor. I have been watching them from the beginning and I probably will until they stop showing them. My favorite to date–Survivor: Australia…Survivor: Panama and Exile Island are close seconds.

Well…this weekend will be filled with everything NASCAR.

Good Luck Tony, Elliott, and Kevin!!!!

Tidbits

Tomorrow is NASCAR day. Don’t forget to show your pride tomorrow.

Truck race is tomorrow night in Charlotte.

All-Star Race Saturday night. Elliott will either have to race himself in or be voted in. As they say…vote early and vote often.

Saturday, May 20, is Tony’s birthday. Happy Birthday, Tony! I would love for Tony to win on Saturday night…talk about a great birthday present.

Sold my tickets for the truck race and Indy race in June. Postman and I weren’t going to be able to make the race so we felt why not share the love with others.

Memorial Day Weekend–INDY 500 and COCA COLA 600. That’s racing from sunup to sundown.

Have a great Friday everyone!
