Hey DB, Yep I went to school with Jeff Grafton. Mostly the only riding I did with him was in the hills around our house. Brock Glover lived across the street from the Grafton family, so sometimes Brock would pull a bike out and school us both. Actually Brock was Jeff's mentor and Jeff's success was a direct result of his tutoring by Brock. Jeff's push towards the Yamaha deal was also because of Brock's relationship with Yamaha.
Jeff's death hit many of us hard. Jeff had decided not to long before that to hang up trying to race professional and to learn the family business. Jeff was one of those people you saw and thought he had everything going for him and he was going to do well in life. Then to have a stupid accident happen at the river just did not make any sense. Since then I only saw his family a few times. In away I think it bothered his mom and dad to see Jeff's old friends.
Hey Sherri, was out this weekend, all better over here, thank you for asking. How about that car parade sun.-calling that a joke is as nice as I can be, oh well, i'm sure Nascar still got paid, and nowaday's that's pretty much all that matter's in this world. Oh well, take care, sorry about the bit o negativity, just venting, so feel free to vent back. take care
Hey Sherri, sorry so long, hope all is good, you got a great memory, birthday on Oct. 8, you take care and have a good week, and we'll see what some Penske power can bring us this weekend. take care
No worries man. I'm never shy about speaking my piece. It's always good to know more people agree with you, then don't. On this particular thing, I'm thinkin everything is on the up,& up right now. Why would anybody over here wanna screw up that vibe?
Sorry but I do not know of any PS3 leagues. I do not own a ps3 and I haven't purchased an EA sports Nascar game in some time. I strictly play nr2003 online. Sorry I could not be of more assistance. You could always try the EASports/Nascar 09 forums or whatever game it is.

Hey Dennis , just stopping by to say hello . Thank you for the nice birthday message . I finally got my computer problem fixed , so no more missed messages . Yay !! Hope you're having a great weekend . TTYL !
Hi Dennis , I'm stopping by to wish you a Happy New Year ! Maybe this will be the year we both find a lot of the good that is out there somewhere . Of course I'd be more than happy to share mine with you . =)
Hey Dennis , it's been a long time friend . I'm doing okay , how have you been ? Sorry it's taken me this long to reply , but my computer died and I just got it back last night . As for the weather , if I never see another snowflake , I will be ever so happy . LOL Last month was just awful , there was around two feet of snow here , and it's still piled up everywhere . We're getting a bit of a warm up this weekend so some of it is melting . Spring can't get here soon enough !
As for 2010 being interesting watching RG , it'll be something for sure . =) Hope to hear from you soon .
Dennis , it was nice that you at least thought about sending out a search party for me . LOL I agree that RG needs a good run tomorrow , will he do it , who knows . It sure would be nice to see it happen . Every time I hear or read about Hendrick and all the things they do during the year , I just have to grit my teeth . Could you even imagine how things might be if RGM had some of that money and employees ? Maybe top 15's would then be the norm instead of a once in a while occurrence . Ahhh , to dream the impossible dream ..... Sigh ..... Take care Dennis , TTYL .
Hey Dennis ! You're welcome , and yes I had a nice one . Hope you did too . The weather here has been like yours , back and forth , but as long as the sun shines more often than it rains , I'm happy . =) I guess there's really nothing you can do about the people or the traffic , except to just grit your teeth , say a few swear words and try to go on your way .
That run by Robby last night was what we have all been waiting for . It was great to see him run so well , and not be running in the back . I hope we get to see more of that kind of racing .
Things here are about as good as can be expected , neither great or terrible. I hope things are good for you Dennis . Take care and stop by any time . =)
Dennis , just thought I'd stop by and say hello as it's been quite a while since I last stopped by . Hope all is well with you . Things here could be a bit better , but the alternative is for things to be worse , so I'll take it as it is . =)
Hey Dennis , yes it's been a while , but you're forgiven . LOL I hope you have a nice weekend too . Winter is long gone , it was pretty hot here till yesterday , now it's rather cool , more like spring . Go figure ..... Hope all is good with you , and that you've found some of that good you've been waiting for . Try to not be such a stranger , okay ?
Hey Dennis ! I know what you mean about keeping your expectation meter low , if you don't expect great things , then you're not as likely to be as disappointed . Still waiting for RGM to get over that really steep hump and get constant good results . One of these days .......
All's good here , just a tad bit hot right now . Hope all's good out your way . Take care Dennis .
Hey Dennis , thanks for stopping by , sorry it's taken me this long to get back to you , I had computer trouble . Things here are okay , the weather is getting cooler , leaves are falling , etc,etc..... hope things have been good with you .
Since I missed your BD , let me wish you a VERY belated Happy Birthday ! I sincerely hope you had a great one ! TTYL , Sherri
You are so very welcome Dennis , I try my best to remember my friends on their birthday . It's nice to know that I was missed enough for you to think about sending out a search party , usually people are glad that I'm not around . lol I've had more than my share of computer trouble this year, I could use a new one, but will have to wait and see about getting one . Hey , my BD and Xmas are coming up, who knows , I might get a nice surprise gift. =)
Hope all is well way out there in Cali, could you send some warm weather out this way ? They say we might see some snow this weekend , I'm not ready for that stuff yet.=( Take care and TTYL Dennis .
Hey Dennis, just stopping by to say Hello, as it's been quite a while. I've been without a computer for 2 months, and just got back online a couple of days ago. I'm now in the process of playing catch up. Yay ! lol Hope all is well out your way. Can you believe that another racing season is about to start? I hope Robby does well in those races he'll be entered in. I think he needs a good luck charm ..... what do you think ? =)
Hey Dennis ! It's been a while since I've heard from you. lol Things here are about as good as they can be, hope all is good with you. Will you be watching the race on Sunday? I'm hoping Robby manages to stay out of other drivers messes and not have a car that is all beat up. Hoping to also see him get a good finish.
Thanks for stopping by to say Hi , you can do it more often you know. LOL
Hi Dennis, it's been really nice seeing you taking part in the discussions . I remember when you were a frequent contributor . =) Hope all is well with you.
Hey Dennis, all is good here. I hear you about biting your tongue or fingers. LOL It is easier sometimes to just sit back and be a reader, but there are times when you just have to say something.
Hey Dennis, yes,still hoping for a good run. It's been a while since the last one. I always lose interest in the race and go looking for something to do... that's not good , is it ? LOL As for things here, it's been way too hot here lately, but I keep telling myself that one day it will get cooler! Other than that , things are good. How are things with you ? Hope all is good. I saw that tweet from RG about welding. Do you suppose he's right about that ? LOL
Hey Dennis, Yes, all is good ! You seem to be in a really good mood , and that's great ! Listen here , you're younger than me, so don't be telling me you feel old , even if it's just for a moment or two ! LOL As for time flying , yes it does.... the older one gets , the faster it seems to go. Do you still go out and play in the water ?
Dennis, it makes me happy to hear that you are feeling good . I guess I noticed your good mood simply because I know about your past health problems. IMO, after 15 years, you more than deserve to feel good. I totally agree with what you said about not having your health , if you don't have it , you don't have sh*t . Looking forward to you filling me in on this great change that has happened to you. You have a great weekend too Dennis !
