Is there an App for that Slow day here! Aashish is too busy with racing

I worked all morning then volunteered some time with my Spay/Neuter group. Signed up 5 or 6 more cats for the clinic later this month.

Waiting for Tom to come home from work so we can eat. He stopped at JC Penney's on the way and sent me a photo of a Suzuka polo shirt he got me for $10

Yeah, same here. Looks like a catch-up-on-tivo day tomorrow.

Replaced the sand in the pool filter. All 325 lbs. of it! Pulled the cover off the pool. Spent an hour vacuuming leaves out of it. Dumped in 4 gallons of chlorine and fired it up. Hopefully it will be ready to use by mid week. I'm beat!

Tomorrow I shovel dirt!

Back in town after six days in Denver on business. Nice area but glad to be home in NY. Hoping it doesn't rain tomorrow so I can cruise in my car for a little while.

I think Speed TV has an app. All the F1 commentators are on Twitter. Even David Hobbs gave in and started tweeting since Monaco

EDIT: Interesting never knew David Hobbs owned a Honda Dealership. Here is the facebook page http://www.facebook.com/pages/David-...70774339600108

and his website http://www.davidhobbs.com/index.htm

Welcome back to ALB Mark

wow! the icing on the cake was the race in Montreal. Had several edge of the seat moments even though the race was red flagged for over 2 hours due to torrential rain and the end result was so worth it.

I have not watched such an exciting race in a long time. See my post over on ARD. https://www.s2ki.com/...st__p__20675147

If you did not watch this race live, then your DVR may not have recorded the whole event because of the 2 hour red flag. In the end it was totally worth it. Every one that scored in the points deserved it.
