Breaking the Sounds of Silence...

A muffled dead quiet it was, the only thing heard was the sound of blood pulsing through his arteries. A notion of peace had fallen over him intermixed with nervous anticipation. None of the engines had been fired yet during the ten minute break.


He looked up peering through the narrow opening in his helmet after checking his lap belt, and now could see five fingers standing at attention as the Grid Marshall raised his hand. The sensation of the soft suit brushing against his arm could be felt as he stretched forward aiming his leather covered index finger for the starter button. The right foot began to massage the accelerator, all the while his left foot pushed the clutch to the stop. The slow motion sound of silence was then broken, and life was now to proceed at a quickening pace for number 6.

Standing in Line Markin' Time...

Some say, "Hey man, you can't make an image like that...it don't look like it should."

"Said, hey old man, how can you stand to think that way? Did you really think about it, before you made the rules? He said, sure. That's just the way it is, some things will never change, that's just the way it is. Haaa, but don't you believe them." - Bruce Hornsby and the Range...The Way It Is

Standin' in line to take on any fool...

Getting My Head Screwed on Straight...

This image doesn't look straight to me. Either I held my camera crooked, my glasses are crooked or maybe my head is crooked. I'm not sure. It could be my ears are a different height. Also what to do about it. I'm not taking any meds, even if they had a crooked head med. Maybe I could buy one shoe with a thicker sole. But that wouldn't help me sitting at the computer working on a photo for the blog. Maybe a single-cheek butt prosthesis would help.

Anyway thought I would share what I've been up to. Taking these shots makes me nervous, very nervous. A snapped rear axle and I'd be a gonner. I click the pic and run...come to think about it, maybe that's why they're crooked.

Nothing like a ol' Willys to get your blood pumping...
