Thank you. Thank you very much. I’d like to thank Marlboro Lights, Og, Xtina, MTV and Budweiser. I wish I could have done it without a nap but I have a very comfortable couch and a big head.

I feel so good, I might have a few more bottles. . . 😉

haha you’re just going to make it worse for yourself. You’ve set yourself a record… now drink a bunch of water and go to bed (and put a bucket next to your bed just in case). Gotta be up for the races tomorrow, remember that.

**Bruce\_Daddy** , congratulations. I have always enjoyed your responses in NASCAR related threads, and am pleased to see you are a Harvick fan. Hopefully, that 40 lap limiter isn’t on his Cup car, and he can stay hot. Hope you get a finish like the spring race. Darlington is on my list of must-visit tracks, along with Daytona (50th birthday road trip), Bristol, Talledega, and Dover. Come up to one of the Pocono races next season, and I’ll buy you a beer or two.

To me, the nap makes it that much more impressive. After 20-odd beers, if I fell asleep, there’s no way I’d be able to wake up, let alone drink more, let alone post to a message board.

Way to go, dad!

Happy

Hey, **Bruce\_Daddy**! I’m surprised you managed all that beer.

Linked **Spoz** to the thread, and this is what he had to say:

Thank Og I picked up a 99 cent 6 pack of Country Time lemonade along with the beer. They’re tasting pretty good right now.

I really have to quit posting drunk. Oh crap, I better get ready for the race!
