Bahrain in a few hours!

Will BMW take a sensational victory?
Will Kovalainen beat Beauty Boy?
Will it be a Finnish 1-2?
Will Burt Campbell do Jessica Tate?
Will Jodie Dallas turn out to be straight?

WooooHoooo...an hour and a half.

In case you're wondering, I'm up at 4:30 a.m. because its prom night and I'm waiting for the Missus to return from the sheriff's office. No injuries or DUIU's but twins that are in trouble when they get home if I have a say so. But probably not since my wife and I were in an argument about tonite's prom plans before we received the call. And my predictions, alas, turned out to be correct.

Oh well...who qualified on the pole?

Kubica is on the pole.

If the girls are not home, and its 04:30, and the wife is at the Sheriff's office, then it sure sounds like they did something wrong. Time for a long talk and grounding it sounds...

Yup...an after prom breakfast supposedly for 8 kids at one of the kid's parents' home. Police were called because of a noise problem. Arrested 20 kids for MIP (minor in possession). Parents were found hiding in the attic...they've been charged with 20 counts of contributing to delinquency. One stepdtr got a MIP; the other one took off into the woods and called mom to pick her up. Tough on how to deal with that.

My wife and I had an argument earlier because the "breakfast" as described by the parents to my wife didn't pass the smell test to me.

Thank god no parents had to be summonsed to the morgue.

Good luck with that...sometimes being a parent must absolutely suck (I'm not one, so can't really relate).

Good luck Dueller. But remember - kids will be kids & we ALL did it too.

A good race, btw but I won't spoil it.

Damn trashy parents. I'm not there yet (as has been pointed out in the past by 'the') but I surely hope my son's friends parents are not the type to try to be 'cool' and allow underage drinking in their home. Shameful and juvenile IMO.

Good luck D!

Those type of parties (i.e. parent's supplying booze, "looking the other way", etc.) were not unusual at all when I was in hs, and it was typically the respectable "country club set" (i.e. relatively well off) houses where they typically occurred. I doubt things have changed that much even though it's been a long time. Most of the other parents were either naive (as were mine), gullible, or implicitly condoned it, but most had NO CLUE as to what was really going down. I think Dueller does...

Dueller,

Since you post the glamour shots of your twins, how about the mugshot?

Typical teen stuff...

Re: Alonso / Hamilton
I wonder if Fernando didn't lift just a bit!
Any way it was a good start for Massa that sealed the fate.
Kubica needs to pay attention to the lights, first time jitters a guess.

I wondered the same think, man, Hammy really nailed him.


Great race, lots of good battles, the 2 red cars trading fast laps/segments was exciting. I really wanted Kimi to win but Massa needed to redeem himself so this was good too.


BMW is really looking good. I was excited for them as well. I think we might see them take some podiums soon.
