I'll be one of those walk-ons, hopefully. Paypal didn't like that I disconnected my old bank account from it, so I couldn't pay. Andrew is coming too.

Umm ... did someone sign up the person who tows the trailer? I've been too busy to do it for myself.

Got to make sure we take care of the most important event worker.

I have a 100% sure feeling that you won't have a problem getting entered. 8)

BTW.. I changed my mind and am sticking with the RX8 for May.

Thanks.

Awww c'mon.... he better have put some very sparkly stuff around your neck or on your hand to convince you not to smoke him around the course on that kart the first time he brings it out!

That's a good idea... but I'll have to think of something better than sparkly stuff.

I don't know what to do! I'm getting pressure to drive the kart from a couple people. I'm a little nervous though! I've only driven it on our little street. :shock:

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Teddy wants you to drive the Kart.

"Teddy" -

Roosevelt? Kennedy? surely, not Bear...

Posted: **Sat May 03, 2008 8:15 pm**

Teddy Roosevelt. One of my favorite quotes of all time. If I'm ever debating giving something a go, I think of this quote.

I'm sure you know that the "Bear" stems from a story re: Roosevelt as well..... The story goes that he refused to shoot a bear that was tied up on a mock trophy gathering hunt. A political cartoon was drawn, and voila... the "Teddy Bear" springs into existence.

Here's a link to the story....

So..... what exactly does "thread hijack" mean?

I dunno...

I guess since I'm the moderator I should chastise myself...

I was referring to my long winded explanation..... but it seemed appropriate considering that I don't want people thinking that I refer to the wisdom of teddy bears for encouragement....

well, not as far as you know anyway. <grin>
