First, a very secret message to my fellow members of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy:

We’ve been found out. Alicia Keys, of all people, has figured out that whitey invented gansta rap so all the impressionable black folk would go around killing each other. We’re going to have to come up with another plan, since we’ve been outed on this one. Please leave your ideas in the comment section here. One good by-product of this discovery – maybe rap will now go the way of disco. I know, one can only hope…

Next, a quick update about my weekend. I know I usually get this done on Monday, but here’s the rundown:

Saturday was the community-wide yard sale. Like good do-bees, we put our prized possessions on our driveway and stood in the sun for most of the morning. In the process, The Most Beautiful Woman in the World (delicate flower that she is) managed to get sunburned on her feet, legs, arms, and face.

(Quick side note – during the course of the morning, a lady stopped by wearing a red shirt with Dale Jr,’s name and old number on it. I mentioned that I liked her shirt. She asked if I was a fan of NASCAR, and I allowed that I did manage to follow it somewhat closely. She asked who I liked, and I told her I’ve always followed Junior’s exploits, but since Senior died I’ve spread my attention to a few others – like Jeff Burton, Dale Jarrett, Michael Waltrip – but watching Junior will always be fun. She walked back to her car, and brought over a couple of Junior’s new hats – one in each sponsor (National Guard and Mountain Dew), a shirt/hat/lanyard combo in the black number 3 scheme, and two 1:24 scale die casts of Junior’s new cars. She showed them to me, and I said they were pretty sharp – then she handed the whole batch to me and said “I’m sharing today, I’ve got more of this stuff than I know what to do with. I’m headed to the track after this.” That was cool.)

Anyway – Monday morning, TMBWitW wakes up with really bad sun pains. She called in, then waited for the doctor’s office to open so she could get medical advice. She had brought work home on Friday, as is her habit, and she had plenty to do besides, so she pretty much hogged – er, was on the computer most of the day yesterday.

So, that’s my weekend. How was yours?

Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and support Warriors for Innocence!
