    Hey, would you be able to send your e mail to klangan@omnipossible.com? I want to get the B/R community leaders on a mailing list for a press release on behalf of Sports Media 101.

    Thanks

    ...not to shabby grasshopper. You'll fit right in and in no time shine high above for all to see. For a lad from Cali, your short list is pretty good. Must have had a first class upbringing and taught right. One thing though, you may need to consult with a higher authority on your auto racing savoir-faire....perhaps a savvy uncle, for example. DE (Sr.) is one of the greats...no doubt...as well as one of my favs (sorely missed)..., but Petty IS King...and shall always remain as such. Hard to meet, let alone beat, his supermacy. It is what it is...43.
    ...PS...pull my finger...
