Today we lost one of my childhood idols. I remember Dom Deluise from way back, namely the movie Cannonball Run. Today is a sad day, he always knew how to make us laugh.
Recently we found out that the summer sign ups had started for the local soccor league for kids. Dad told me about it and my daughter had been bugging me about playing soccor for the last year or so. So I got the info and asked her and she semmed really excited. Until today. I bought cleats and a ball and goal for her to practice with but she was adament. "I want to play hockey daddy!" "But you said you wanted to play soccor?" "I changed my mind I want to play hockey." "But we don't have any equipment to play hockey with." "But I want to play hockey." back and forth and on and on. So now the money we spent on hockey gear is apprently going to waste. Except for the goal because it doubles as a hockey goal so even I could use it. *sigh* I should have known this was going to happen...
Speaking of hockey I'm waiting for a new team for the summer league. I dropped off my sign up shet a couple of years ago so with any luck I'll get the word soon.
I just checked out one of GTR2's offcial championship easons. When they this is the most realistic racing simulation game on the market they aren't whistling dixie. The races are the same length as they are in the real racing series. You have to participate in the two 90 minute practice sessions and 30 minute qualifying sessions and the races are three hours long. One race of the season is actually 24 hours. No I don't mean time lapsed I mean the fucking race is ACTUALLY 24 hours in length! Now you can time lapse it so that the race is shorter but that's the only change you can make to the entire season. The practice sessions can't be shortened, neither can the races that aren't 24 hours so strap in and hang on. You're in for a long ride.
