Keno, Blackjack and Craps...oh, my...

Sorry the post is late today...sleeping off a huge hangover and gambling buzz...
Well, not really. I was in bed by 7:30pm last night and ended up sleeping 9 hours! Whoo-hoo!
Big race yesterday...lots of yellow flags and some big crashes in the Nationwide race. It was very
entertaining to watch!
Today's race could be historic. If Matt Kenseth can pull off the trifecta and win the first three races
of the season, it will be a first! I'd like to see it happen!
This track is one of the cookie cutter 1.5 mile tracks, but lots of guys have trouble in the corners,
and there seems to be a lot of crashes each race. Last year Jeff Gordon hit the inside retaining wall
in a crash that he said was the hardest crash he'd ever had. At that time there was no safer barrier
on that part of the inside wall. Due to that crash, the speedway did install the SAFER barrier, so hopefully
no one will hit that hard again.
Vegas is a fun city, and I hope Mom, Jackie and Jessie have a blast next week! (I would recommend
"Thunder from Down Under", but that might incriminate me...yuk!)
My predictions for today:
3). Greg Biffle
2). Jeff Gordon
1). Carl Edwards
Have a great Raceday!

If you thought it was good, then that's where we'll go! Mom has been saving her dollars!
Go Carl!

Um, again, I have no personal knowledge, but if the billboards are any indication, those boys are a good show...and Australian, c'mon...what could be better. Oh, I do hear that they're all gay. Hope that doesn't deter you.
Please tell Mom that they like dollar bills tucked better than dollar coins. FYI.
