Like a lot of Americans, I follow football. And when my beloved Jaguars reach the playoffs, I’ll drop everything and rearrange my schedule to watch them play.
I’m usually out in L.A. for SEMA meetings during the playoffs, and I’ll do whatever it takes to find a bar showing the game. I have juggled getting together with Jay Leno for dinner …

And a rather timely happy birthday to John Morton.
We had a regional branch manager that told our branch manager that he was too nice. He encouraged him to be a dick and be harder on people. Regional finally retired.
I try to be kind as in the scheme of the whole thing, this is all minor E36 M3. No need to get all worked up over this world.
Treat yourself well too. It counts for a great deal of your happiness.

Phil Conte, who knew lots of drivers and ran some great programs such as the IMSA GTP Buicks, once told me if somebody didn't like John Morton, there was just something wrong with them.
I couldn't agree more.
I O sono contento, Sempre (I am glad always).
Regardless of whether your no name club racer (me) or the aforementioned John Morton the key is to realize that we are blessed. I know so many people who would absolutely love to be on track but will never get the opportunity. Sure I never became 125cc GP world champ or race F1 I've done a lot of cool things. The inner calm that brings is priceless.
Even at the local level I'm always looking to improve or for an opportunity to improve. Racing is the only reason I've managed to be successful in my work life. Racing taught me to keep my eyes and ears open for opportunity.
Whether running the Challange or challenging for a RunOffs win; we are blessed to be able to do this.
