Daily Meditations



I continue to post daily meditations on the readings here.  Since I'll be on the road for a few days next week, I will probably post a few days ahead of time over the weekend.

Great Article on Geoff Bodine



From the racing junky:



Bodine continued doing things his way. Which didn't sit well the with monarchy known as NASCAR. To make matters worse, Bodine won and won during the next few years. In 1986, he captured the Super Bowl of auto racing trophy. He won the Daytona 500. But when Geoffrey went back to Daytona last year (where he finished 3rd, by the way) he went to museum. While watching the film of all the past Daytona 500 winners and waiting for his turn on the film, something strange happened. It skipped right over 1986. When Geoffrey went to the offices for a visit he noticed something else strange. Lining the walls were all the past Daytona 500 winners. Guess whose was absent? Yep, Geoffrey's. Coincidence? Probably not. Remember the "or else" part? NASCAR didn't return calls to comment on the above.

Apologies



Turns out the Stella Awards posted below are an urban legend. See Stella Awards: Decidedly NOT the Stellas



I apologize for posting what a friend had sent along to me. Thanks to Nancy Nall for pointing out my ignorance.
Speed Traps Anyone?



From The Ledger:



When I first arrived in Florida some twenty-six years ago I was warned of this speed trap. I never was ticketed because I went way under the speed limit through this town which I passed through a thousand times. But there was almost always some one pulled over usually from out of state.
