The 35th Random TPBM (Waiting for Spring) Chat Thread

No plans...just editing. I'm kind of wanting to go shopping.

Oh, and sleeping in. Definitely sleeping in.

Any plans for you?

No Tif Andys going to be working so I"ll be here alone , maybe I"ll play with photos and clean the house a bit nothing special .

Photos are good. I could stand to see some more of your flower stuff.

On Sunday at 1 Deb is going to Eli's birthday party...

Took the boy to Oklahoma City last week ... will have pictures later

Been playing around with electronics... I'll have to take some pictures of the result of one of my projects and share that...

And, soon I will be doing maternity shots for a friend

Hi Mike, nice to see you. Been awhile, yes?

Race Car questions:

Any knowledge I have about racing comes from Speed Racer and Pixar's Cars

In Cars the main car blows a tire and then gets a yellow flag and all the other cars have to drive slow. Is that real? Why? Is it like a nfl time out??

My second question is, if a car could do everything the Mach 5 did (Speed Racer) would it be a legal for regular racing or are there certain qualifications?

My third question is, would someone like to come over and watch an NON cartoon with me??

You are so cute. I think you should practice being a race fan. It might take couple races to get into it but it is good stuff once you understand the goings on.

For die hard racers, the season never ends. It just shifts to the warmer hemisphere.

NASCAR runs from February to November.
Formula 1 runs from March to November.
SCCA has event year round.
Izod IndyCar runs February to October.
ALMS runs from March to October.
Grand-Am runs from January to September.
Australian V8 Supercars runs from February to December.

Many many weekends we have spent at Summit Point in W.Va. It is a great winding road course. I don't know about now but there used to be little in the way of seating other than the grandstand. The rest of the course you could just park at the rail on the edge of the track. We used to go for the Bike races as well as cars.

I think they need more road courses and a dirt track or two!

That^ We also used to race a dirt car with a friend and spent a few years down in the pits at Potomac Speedway. Leyla is a heck of a pit girl.

Hey.. We do lawnmower races in out neighborhood every Thanksgiving weekend.

Looks like a great neighborhood JJ. Sort of what America should be for everyone in my opinion.

Summit Point is a fun track.

Doing it on dirt is the only way to go. I spend many hours lovingly tuning this beast each week.

We are Jon. We have come to assimilate you.

I fell asleep around 9 last night, was up a while at 4 then back till 7...I'm still tired!

That is like two good nights of sleep all packaged into one.

TIFF, lovely senior shots. I gotta say though, I don't see what a couple others say about the eyes, they look in focus and sharp, but not overdone like I have seen with some peoples who I believe most likely missed the focus and tried to make up for it by oversharpening. Could this just be a monitor thing, the real truth is in the printed photos. I have not printed out lots of photos yet, but I know some things I feel I may have oversharpened, came out great in print.

I would KILL to be able to go drop $5K on clothes in NY.

From what I saw, that could be just a couple pair of shoes.

Ooooo, ungood. Baths are divine when not feeling great, both for physical and mental woes. Books are fun.

Do you race Dan, or just work on the car?
