I've got an awful lot to say about my week at INDY so I'm going to just start with a few comments, observations, half-truths and questions. I can't take in my whole week in one sitting so it may take me a few days to get my whole experience in.
Yes, I did wear a new hat. My sweetie threw my old one in the burn barrel and it melted some of the siding on the house! More "honey do" stuff. The rumors around the pits are completely false about Jack and I being signed to do a major studio remake of "The Odd Couple". But if we were, Jack would be Felix. I was not locked in the bathroom of the coach all week. I WAS however not allowed to touch his laptop and there were certain people that I WAS NOT allowed to talk to(more on that later). Jacks hair is real! However, it is the only hair on his entire body! (don't ask, it wasn't pretty and my eyes still sting from soaking them with bleach) Jack has a publicist and three proof readers come in every evening to make sure that his posts are perfect! Jack does his own make-up. Jack takes three showers a day AND changes his wardrobe at least twice that many times! That can be a bad thing in a motorhome. The grey water tank was full by Friday and because of that I have a near terminal case of stanka$$. But enough about Jack. I'll post some more later. (the un-dead are among us)

It was great to see Billy at Indy, again!

A few things that I would like to see at Indy.
Bobby Warren is my hero! Always has been, always will be. When will the NHRA give this man(and his talented family) the recognition that he deserves! I would like to see Gary Richard, Jeff Teuton and, if he is going to continue to dabble in Stock, Victor Cagnazzi wear dirty, bib-overalls, a plaid shirt and a Funks-Hybrid hat while wandering around the Sportsmen pits. I would add Jacks name to that list but I'm trying to be realistic here. I would like to see Gary Summers stand on the roof of his car in the middle of the staging lanes and drop drawers in front of everybody else in Stock Eliminator! I would like to see Charlie Bob, his Dad, his brother Patrick, Paul Wong and the Polacks sitting around a campfire dressed like cowboys, eating beans and doing a "Blazing Saddles" imitation. It just seems right. On a little different subject, I learned a lot of new words this week, rich folk don't drink out of glasses, they drink sparkly stuff out of things called "flutes" and they eat this stale bread that looks like it's got a cow turd on it called biscotti! No wonder they're all so thin! They get parked all in the same place by these people called valets! I think that it's got something to do with Redmans shirt. I know that if a Sportsmen Racer starved at Indy this year it could only be because he didn't have a mouth. Every night it seemed like someone was putting out a spread and I think that I can say that it was greatly appreciated by all of us. Just one more thing for today, Mr. Bongiovanni, we've never met and I know that you seem to be a very good, hard working man but could you please stop filling out your tech card with Rockaway N.J. as where you're from? You may very well reside in Rockaway N.J. or your business may be there but you're not "from" Rockaway N.J. If you ARE "from" Rockaway then I apologize and will gladly invite you to take a walk with me through Mount Hope after dark. Oh and what's with the boat? It's a nice boat but there's no water at Indy! (the infection that created the Zombies started in Mount Hope)

Enjoyed having you and Jack as neighbors for the week/ weekend. Need to tone-down the late night partying though :-) The Corn Guys |
