Loudon...it's like London, only different

Well, it's kinda like London. It's foggy and rainy here this morning. I wonder if we'll get the race in today. Chance of rain is 50% all day long.
BREAKING NEWS....Bill Webber has been fired by TNT this morning. He will not be doing play by play for todays festivities. He'll be replaced in the booth by TNT pit reporter Ralph Sheheen. It's gonna be a big story...not Michael Jackson's death size story, but big none the less in NASCAR circuits. It has been said that he whines and throws tantrums quite often and today's tantrum pushed them over the edge. I have no first hand knowledge of the situation, but the scuttlebutt is flowing in the compound. How often have you got to use the word "scuttlebutt". I like it!
In other news...Zach, Andy and Alex may have started a side business. Last Tuesday night, I took them with me to help our friends, David and Sharon Graham, move a bunch of boxes and such to a storage unit in preparation for a move. The boys went again Friday night and Saturday to help complete the move. They did a stellar job. David and Sharon couldn't believe how hard they worked, how they did not complain and how grown up they are. I couldn't be prouder!
On West Coast news, Sandy completes her recertification today for TaeBo in Los Angeles. She said that it may be as early as 5:30am pacific time, which is right now, so I am waiting on an update. Billy Blanks wanted them to do their routine that early. Sandy didn't really want to do it so early, but we'll see. She has been spending time with Billy's daughter, Shellie, who is in the process of moving to Franklin, TN, so that is a great God connection. Sandy was driving thru LA by the UCLA medical center on Thursday when all the Michael Jackson stuff was going down...she said it was a zoo!
Back to racing...Kyle Busch won the Nationwide race here last night and I look for him to repeat here today...if we race.
Predictions for today:
3). Jimmie Johnson
2). Greg Biffle
1). Kyle Busch
Have a great raceday!
