NASCAR? please.

ive decided that there is without a doubt more athletic skill involved in the armwrestling competition i was watching the other day (which i could not for the life of me manage to eliminate from the screen of my tv, it was just that captivating) than there can possibly be in auto racing. honestly, is there any athletic skill involved in driving around an oval track? i understand that it gets quite hot and that these rednecks on a rampage lose quite a bit of fluid because of the temperature, and i understand that you most certainly have to have a screw loose to drive that rapidly at a mere inches from another car also travelling that rapidly, but i still fail to see where the use of highly trained groups of muscles comes into play here. though i suppose the old glutes do get quite a bit of work.

anyhow, enough of my day has now been wasted on something as meaningless as nascar. on to more important subject matter. i feel i should now spend several lines raving about the executive at nickelodeon who finally gave the greenlight to the reruns of the fresh prince of bel aire. i have been waiting for quite some time for this show to replace some weak link in the weeknight lineup. i did not think that cheers was the weak link, but ill take my cheers on tvland if i must. i had almost forgotten how much i enjoyed seeing jazz get thrown out the front door, and the uncle phil fat jokes never get old. it is nice to know that there is life on nick at night after the cosby show. good stuff. hoorah.

and a quick yeay for me for finally eclipsing the 500 hits mark since the counter went up a while back. i rule.
