Hey Gang- it’s Christmas Eve here in the West, and I want to take a moment or two to wish to put down some Christmas thoughts before I allow visions of sugar plums to dance in my head (I really should lay off the eggnog).
Oh by the way, that really IS one of demented cats attempting to take a nap in the Christmas tree. It may offer some kind of idea how things roll in the world of Jimmy Mac.
To Bobby Labonte, Dave Blaney, Tony Raines and A.J. Allmendinger- Here’s wishing that you get a new ride for Christmas.
To Boris Said- May you be blessed with a road course victory and no qualifying rain outs.
To Kurt and Kurt Busch- May there be peace in the family this year.
To Carl Edwards, Jamie Mc Murray and Elliott Sadler- May you all discover marital bliss.
To Mark Martin- Here’s hoping you get that elusive championship this year.
To the great United States of America- May this dumb recession be a short one. Let’s hope the lessons that needed to be learned have been and the innocent who’ve gotten caught in the middle of this monetary mess experience recovery quickly.
To the greedy fat cats who played such a key role in creating this mess- Here’s a lump of coal for you. If you need help swallowing it, I’m here to do what I can.
To my friends at FanZone Sports, Jayski’s, and From The Marbles- You have my gratitude for introducing me to new readers. I quote Pedro Sanchez of Napoleon Dynamite when I say may “your wildest dreams come true.”
To all my rowdy friends at NASCAR Nation and Let’s Go Racing Fans- God bless you all for allowing me the privilege of your company.
To the NASCAR people who makes changes that anger the fans- We wish for you- a clue for Christmas.
For the Dodge drivers- a little more horsepower.
For Dale Earnhardt Jr.- a little more race day staying power.
For Tony Stewart and Ryan Newman- a successful transition.
For Jeff Gordon- Many returns to victory lane.
For Richard Weintraub- the Slate author who suggested that NASCAR should be put out of its misery- a delete button before we writes more pap like that.
For our troops- A safe return home. Especially you “Dupy.” You know who you are. May your re-deployment go quickly and safely. Hope to see you soon.
To All You Who Read- Thank you. You are my inspiration. It’s fun to talk NASCAR and exchange ideas with a little bit of friendly smack tossed in. Without you, none of this is possible.
To JuneBug, Hannah Banana, and J-Dawg (my family)- Thank you for your support and patience. You also furnish the best race day company around. I love you.
To God- Thank you for saving me from me. You gave the greatest gift of all. Today we celebrate that gift.
Merry Christmas Everybody!
