My heart hurts for all the people affected by the current hurricanes. May the Lord bless you and your families and may the country see that tragedy and send money to the Red Cross. Even a dollar helps!

Unfortunately I’m been offline – still reading the blogs, watching the races, TWIN, etc., just told to not type – fyi: I suffer with neuropathy in my primary hand/arm and have major C5-6 cervical problems – pretty serious and it sucks being 44. Limits much of what I do.

So I’m limited here for a while, believe me I’m cussing, clapping, screaming, and cheering for most of the guys — except Kyle. Sorry I just can’t get back his personality. He’s just an A$$. Hoping Joey Logano gets a better run next time.

Dark Horse: Still going with the Biff or Bowyer. But my PICK is Jr. Definitely believe it will come down to a Hendrick 3-way race – wouldn’t that be sweet Sorry for Matt Kenseth. Bummer. I’d like to see him higher than 12th.

Sorry for the problems with the set of tires last week w Jr… I thought he had it. I don’t know understand why in the world there are so many tire problems – not just last week – but through this season. Seems kind of weird that Rick is up in the booth “calming” Jr, but glad to see that he’s stepping up and giving him the time that obviously Jeff and Jimmy probably got from him (don’t know what happened with Casey)?

Not Sorry for Kyle’s problems. I was clapping! Thought he should have left before he blew up everyone else. He KNEW he had problems. Instead of trying to be the “king” as he THINKS he is, he should have made the MATURE INTELLIGENT decision to get into the pit row, get his problems fixed instead of taking out cars that had nothing to do with him. He may have even won the race. ASS again! I hope everyone was – from the stands and the garage – clapping when he screwed up. Someone needs to take a needle and deflate his head a bit.

Looking forward to Talladega – one of my favorite tracks. Fingers crossed for Dale in his Victory Lane.

Nice seeing the guys all dressed up! Sweet! Those orange, bright neon green, yellow, red suits do NOTHING for them! Of course, you gotta say Kasey had the best this year LOL blue and pink hearts. Wonder what Bud thought about that one. They need to quit showing it.

And I can’t forget to say nice job to Chad and Michael Waltrip on TWIN. I love that hour!

Hoping my hand gets well soon – I’ll be back next week! Good luck to all your drivers.

May we all stay safe.
