Well it's Brickyard week here in Indy and as usual, excitement is running high as the stars of the Winston Cup series make their return to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Unfortunately, I just can't really get in to all the pre race hype (hike for my friends and fans of Thomas “Hitman” Hearns) that surrounds the running of the 400.
Yes, I will miss seeing Dale Earnhardt on the track tremendously and I know that this whole season has been somewhat dull to me because he has not been there. I still root for Jr. and have become a Kevin Harvick fan. I still root for Mark Martin and Steve Park. I want to see Ron Hornaday do well for AJ's team. I'd like to see John Andretti do well as he always seemed to be the most gracious of the racing Andretti's-perhaps that is his downfall. And don't think I won't be there giving Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon the finger when they come around and booing when Robby Gordon or Dale Jarrett go by. I will be! But it won't be the same.I've never been a big fan of any driver who was killed before Dale. Not like that anyway. I always liked Scott Brayton but wasn't a big fan. I liked Tim Richmond, but his death came slow and inevitable. I was a Mark Donahue fan, but Formula One coverage was pretty nonexistent when he crashed and died in Austria in 1975. I was a fan of the late Ayrton Senna, but nothing like Dale Earnhardt. Without him at the Speedway, it will seem empty and sad for me. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. I also know that Dale Jr. would like to see an end to the memorials at each race. He wants to focus on the job at hand. Maybe he's right and maybe it is time for all of Dale's fans to come to grips with this tragedy and move on. It's not easy. I'll know that when the tears are in my eyes at the start of the race Sunday, if not sooner. They're there every week when the green flag falls.
For this week, I pray that no one is seriously hurt and that the weather cooperates. It'll be hot, that much is sure. It'll be slow, as anyone who has been to the track in May and then comes back in August can testify to. It'll be crowded as every Winston Cup race is and as every race at IMS is. Unfortunately, that crowd will be missing one of the very reasons NASCAR is in Indianapolis in the first place.
Go 8, 1, 6, 43, 14 and even 2! Goodbye 3! I will miss you this weekend, but your memory will not fade!

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright stupid person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I begin take up real income.
It gets down to choose a proper companion who utilizes your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the profit with me.
You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a thing, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For quite a long time, I make money with the help of these programs.
I'm with no money problems now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my web site to get additional info.
