Stuck,
I’ll probably watch also, if only because the Red Hot Chili Peppers are playing at half-time (between gay weddings). You gotta do what you enjoy in life, no matter what other people think. You really can only run into trouble when you let other people decide what you do in life. You’re not a bad person, your a great person, funny as hell, caring and compassionate. We need more people like you around.

Amie Climie, who had been teaching at Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, told police that the iPhone containing the nude images of her had been stolen, and that she had no idea how they had ended up on the website, as she had only shared them with her husband.
She was placed on administrative leave after the photographs surfaced online, and resigned shortly thereafter.
During the course of their investigation, police discovered that the images had not, in fact, been shared with her husband, but that they had been taken for and shared with a married acquaintance of hers with whom she had been carrying on an affair.
Police were called to Climie’s home on November 24 after she reported that her phone had been stolen and nude images of her on it had been posted online.
After a forensic investigation of the cellphone records, police determined that it was Climie who had sent the image, and that she had done so to someone other than her husband.
Climie has been charged with obstructing official business, a second-degree misdemeanor

Two former Boy Scout leaders accused of toppling an ancient rock formation in a Utah state park are now facing felony charges of five years in prison and $5,000 in fines according to the Salt Lake Tribune.
David Hall and Glenn Taylor – who filmed themselves pushing over the ‘goblin’-shaped sandstone pillar and posted the video to YouTube – are accused of causing more than $1,500 but less than $5,000 in damages when they pushed over the ancient rock formation on Oct. 11. Taylor, who pushed over the rock, was charged in Castle Dale’s 7th District Court with third-degree felony criminal mischief, while Hall, who filmed the incident and could be heard on the video cheering, was charged with conspiracy criminal mischief, also a third-degree felony.

A mother from Hollywood, Florida has been arrested for taking her 15-year-old daughter to New York City in order to pimp her out to the Super Bowl “fetish ” crowd according to the Sun-Sentinel.
Yolanda Ostoloza, 39, was taken into custody by detectives on Wednesday inside the DoubleTree hotel on Lexington Avenue in Midtown Manhattan on charges of endangering the welfare of a child under 17, a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail.
The Florida woman told detectives “We came up here to work and make money with a pimp,” then added, “I knew it was for escorting and prostitution. I thought my daughter was just going to do the fetish stuff.”

KB – I quit watching nascar about 15 years ago because of the same issue you raised, namely that it had become a 4 hour, poorly-produced, comically retarded commercial circlejerk. Also high on my list of reasons to dump that shit was that it had also become (and remains) a weekly assassination of decent English grammar. I started following Formula 1 a couple years ago because it has a much more technical concept and the “sponsors”, while visible, are not constantly peddled and fellated by the broadcasters. Then, last year, NBC bought the rights to it, shitcanned Speed Channel, and it’s already gone a long way towards the Fox/Nascar model. By the end of this upcoming season, I expect F1 to be as unwatchable as Nascar. And football can just fuck off.

Desertrat – I’m getting to the point that I’m far more interested in the Grand-Am/IMSA and Continental Sports Car series these days. Those cars at least start out life, more or less, as a real car that is then race-prepped by the team, as opposed to the tube framed custom jobs tarted up for Nascar. The drivers are almost entirely from the ranks of SCCA and similar org’s and have worked their way up the food chain on merit (and sponsor’s cash). I’ve caught a couple of DTM and BTCC races, also the Australian V8 Supercars series when it can be found on teevee (rarely) or streaming online.
What did you think of the coverage of the 24 at Daytona? I couldn’t get anything but a couple of in-car streams and a few roof cams until the end of it – by which time I was so pissed off at Fux Sports that I had given up trying to watch. They’re going to pull the same horseshit with Sebring and Watkins Glen, and they’ll probably gangfuck Le Mans as well. May the MSM eat shit, die, and be left to rot at an undisclosed location.

For whatever reason I haven’t watched TV since the end of collitch feetsball.
As far as the “standards”, I like Indy cars on circle tracks. Street courses suck. Most road courses are too narrow–Sears Point, Watkins Glen. Several of the new F1 courses are good since there’s some passing room and less of the freight-train BS.
Nascar? I’d like to see them skinny the tires by an inch or two and get rid of the restrictor plates. Make the drivers take care of the brakes. Slow into 1 and 3, punch it coming out of 2 and 4.
Overall? I don’t like all the telemetry, radios, spotters, all that. Like a racing buddy of mine said, “With all that crap, a trained ape could finish fourth.”

Jimski – you can arrange a tour of the IoM TT circuit outside the racing season, and there are a number of Tour Agencies on the Island who can provide a complete package, including machine and equipment hire. Alternatively if you have a machine of your own you are welcome to do the circuit on yours.
Apart from the TT circuit, the Isle of Man has plenty to interest a motorcyclist, and holiday accommodation is reasonably plentiful, outside the TT Season.
Been there seen it, done it (ex. Police Honda ST1100). Reasonable circuit times, but nothing anywhere near what “The Professionals” manage. They ride with that certain combination of skill, determination, and sheer willpower, along with a very generous helping of good luck.

Jimski, I agree. Gave up on NASCAR years ago. Seems like Earnhardt Sr, died and the sport went with him.
But the Isle of Man motorcycle race is for real men only. Also I would rather watch off road truck racing any day over football.
Also, if anyone has never seen an NHRA race with the cars burning nitro it’s a must see. Those cars are unbelievable. Get tickets as close to the track as possible and bring ear protection. Plus the crowd is full of really good people. Not the beer swilling idiots you get at Nascar or Football. There is more horsepower in two top fuel dragsters than the whole field in NASCAR.

More on that story.
Glenn Taylor — who infamously filmed his ability to knock over an ancient 2,000-pound sandstone with his bare hands — filed a lawsuit claiming “debilitating” physical injury weeks before the stunt’s filming, it has been revealed.
Taylor, seen destroying a 200 million-year-old goblin sandstone formation in Utah’s Goblin Valley State Park last week, filed a personal injury lawsuit last month claiming to have been disabled after a car crash four years ago.
Since that 2009 crash the Boy Scout leader claims he’s “endure(d) great pain and suffering, disability, impairment, loss of joy of life,” according to his lawsuit filed against the father of the then teen driver responsible for that crash.

Paul asks the church members to greet each other with saintly kiss, as opposed to a judas kiss, I suppose. these folks doing the gay weddings are activists putting the sight you cannot stand, in your very face. not long ago, I read a story of this gay marriage going on where a TBP big dog was present to record it. Back in high school, which was then 1973, Mr. Tackett said, a gay guy takes himself and another guy with him, out of the competition. presumably leaving more women for us heteros. I have read that in time, there will be 7 women per each male, saying, marry us, we will pay our own way. at present, there are may women paying their way while married to an unemployed nascar/football fanatic.
