but I do wonder if they will seriously consider maybe moving the Coca-Cola 600 to at least Monday (since it is a holiday and a lot of people have off) to give drivers an additional day to process and grieve.


Doubtful. They have TV contracts that they will fulfill. It won’t be the same but like you said, the show will go on. At least the drivers are home this week and aren’t thousands of miles from home. This race will hit different. I’d imagine that the #8 will withdraw.

Kyle Busch out this weekend while he receives treatment for a severe medical issue. They didn’t say what it was but doesn’t sound good.

Mine invited us to dinner and asked how we were going to split the check when they brought it. Not all are created equal.
The trades are underestimated for making serious money.
The coke 600 is Memorial Day weekend. That would be a fun afternoon.

I was going to recommend River Rat tubing. It’s a nice float down the river. They run a tram that picks you up and brings you back to the drop off point.

More east down highway 84.

Not northeast haha. Good catch.
It’s headed NE out of Brookhaven and headed to Monticello. Was this the tornado that was In Meadville?

I’m in NW Amite county. There was one on the ground in Franklin county headed into amite a few minutes ago. Just windy with lots of thunder and lightning right now. We are the new tornado alley.

Man, that’s crazy you start movement of the knee so soon after surgery.

I was up walking for 5 minutes every hour the day of my LTKR. My surgery was on Monday and PT started on Wednesday. It hurt like hell. My PT was great and stayed after me even on my off days.

My wife had to tell my sister that our dad had committed suicide. Never forget that night.

There are backdowns right there by the Cock of the walk restaurant.
