This was the first thing my MIL who was an RNP said was "GET A SPACER".

Oh I know. This man certainly knew what he was saying was dumb.

If you have to start out your sentence by saying "This is going to make me sound like an ass, but..." maybe just stop there and don't say anything.

Damn it Robert you're making me cry. If there is one thing I hope, it's that my daughter will always know how proud of her I am at all times. I never had parents that would be proud of me or cheer me on, so that is my one goal as a parent to ensure she has.

The pokier needle ones however around $80 here. Soft needle is about $175 for a small one. Gotta have a soft needle with the kiddo. Not letting her grow up with a death trap tree like I had to lol

I would like to say that I am absolutely a REAL over artifical tree person, however, I cannot afford to continue dropping $300 a year on a real tree. So this fake $25 pre-lit from Target will do the trick for now.

I'm putting my Christmas tree and decorations up today because it's been a hard few months and I need happiness, magic and joy in my life. And yes, we decided to revamp the decor and make our own homemade ornaments. JUDGE ME.

There is one driver in particular that while they brought a lot of money, they also needed to spend a lot of that money on the crashes due to negligence on the track.

I have a new friend. Looks like all those things I thought were panic attacks were actually asthma attacks 🤣 oops.

Yeah multi year doesnt always mean you're in the seat...especially with new indycar "standards". We have entered a new era. IndyCar needs their own judge show 🤣

Semi-related, Sting Ray has a multi-year deal with JHR, but for whatever reason, the team is yet to confirm him for that ride, even though I’ve been told there have been no funding issues.

Without question, there are seats that need to be filled at Coyne & Foyt

Per NB: Here’s what we know:

Devlin was announced on a “multi-year deal” a year ago, and there’s been no outright statement that that seat is indeed open.

Monday’s test of Mick & quotes coming from it certainly give the appearance of that, but it’s not been outright stated.
