First of all I was there!! I saw a blast of smoke and dust when John and Kenny wrecked! They will both be back, you can go to Vegas on that! The following is what is in my craw right now!!
I really dig John Force!! He is the best ambassador for his sport, and he should be an example to all other athletes on how to carry him in the public eye!! I’m not saying he is a saint by any means. So with being said lets throw a few prayers out to the Force Family, Force Team and for John to return to his old self. This team has gone through every emotion I can think of this year. Now my big beef is with the media in general, the only reason that anyone on TV is talking about NHRA is because of yesterday’s wreck. And that alone really, well I would like to use a bunch of expletives here but I will refrain. NHRA Drag Racing is the most exciting sport out there. I would rather go to INDY than the Super bowl with Box Seats! There is not a sport where you can get close to your heroes as NHRA. There is not a sport that even gives any attention to the fans as NHRA. If you went to a NASCAR race can you get a picture with your favorite driver, highly doubtful. Only if you know someone, who knows someone, who has a brother-in-law who has a friend that might be willing to introduce you to the ….well you get the point. If it was up to me those round and round guys would be tape delayed and NHRA would be live!!
For a fact I am just an LVN, but don't think that doesn't mean I don't have a brain.

Sunday is the day!!!
Oh man Sunday is the day I have been waiting on for a year!! The O'Reilly Fall Nationals are underway as we speak. The eliminations are just like 1 day and a few hours away!! So much going on. I just found out that one of our heroes back from Iraq was discriminated against at Fiesta Texas, they called him cripple and would let him ride a ride!! All I have to say is just sign the check Fiesta Texas and he can fill out the rest. The baby is really moving around and it won't be long. I am so looking forward to this!! Can't wait to be the Daddy of a little girl!! Oh by the way it's less than 190 days till the Spring nationals in Houston!!

Only about 9 more Days
Well, only about 9 days till the O'Reilly Fall Nationals!!! I am stoked about going. The other day, I could have swore I smelled nitromethane!! And seeing Ashely Force on Leno the other was cool! Not much else going on. Amazingly enough I really don't have much to say right now. I did get a new digital camera and will be posting the pictures from the race soon after I get back.

26 Days
It is only 26 days till the O'Reilly Fall Nationals. It seems only like yesterday we were coming back from the O'Reilly Spring Nationals. So much has changed, it is only about 90 days from when I will be holding my newest family member, Hope Raegan Turner! That is much more exciting than any Drag race. That does not in any way mean I will not enjoy the Drag Races, I can't wait. This time I have a new digital camera so I can load the pics up the day I get back. It has a pretty good zoom on it as well. I hope I get to at least get a Picture of John and Ashely. That would be so cool. Tyler started 3rd grade today. I was telling Barb, that it just seemed like yesterday he was going to kindergarten. I guess tomorrow Hope will be off to school and the day after tomorrow Tyler will be graduating high school. Time flies when you have such a blessed life like I do.

What I believe!
Things have been going great lately, with the exception of some little bumps with my little brother. I have been thinking about stuff that really makes me get up in the morning or afternoon since I work at night. So here we go!
I believe:
1. That NASCAR commentators should banned from using the term "Drag Race". At no point ina 500 mile race is it a drag race. There is no christmas tree, no water box and more inpotantly only 800 horse power.
2. That NHRA should be on live TV every weekend and they should tape delay NASCAR!
3. RN's should stay the hell out of my way!
4. My wife is beautiful and when I tell her she agrees with me, that is not a bad thing!
5. Don't try to convince me to buy a rice burner when I want American Made Steel (Harley).
6. Barry Bonds should be banned from baseball for the rest of his existence and Pete Rose should be in the Hall.
7. Baseball in general should be discontinued period, they pissed me off in 1994 and I have never gotten over it.
8. Ashely Force is the hottest woman in sports period, if you are reading this go vote for her. This is the link http://sports.aol.com/photos/hottestathletes/women
9. I hate when they rerun shows they have just shown like a week ago. I know the reruns are necessary, but dig back like 6 months ago.
10. Finally (for now), I believe that tattoos are sexy on women. I am a conservative and I think all you stuffed shirts need to get over it.

I'm just an LVN! (Apparently I will stay an LVN)
I have spent the last 2 months looking for loans, scholarships or other means to pay for school. So, I can finish my BSN degree. I am registered for school this fall. i got the bill today. I will probably end up having to drop out because I am having a time finding funding for this. I not asking for a handout. I don't qualify for a pell grant and most people can't believe that. I guess I'm the only one who can't get one. There are reasons I am suspicious for why I can't get one. If I could get a loan to finish school, the Civil Service department can actually pay it back. I am a Civil Service LVN at BAMC. Anyway, I have come to the conclusion that if I am supposed to be a RN then it will happen. If not then I'll just be an LVN.

Memorial Day!
As anyone who knows me, knows first and foremost I support the War in Iraq and Afghanistan, for this reason, either we do it there or we do it here. I prefer there. I am not a combat vet, I did serve during the first Gulf War. I wish we had finished this then, the politics were a little different. Now I read those who have served during the current War in Iraq and Afghanistan, they have intimate knowledge. I read Blackfive, they know and they know people who are there right now. I depend on what they have to say about it more than i ever would CNN or even Fox news. I found on their site a very interesting you tube video, you can go there and decide for yourself. Find it here. Anyway let me know your thoughts.
