The total number of hours that I have driven out of my way over the course of a lifetime just to get that sandwich is a statistic that should be an entire paragraph in my obituary

Bruce Hornsby tonight with my own Noisemakers

The last time I was at the Orpheum in Madison was to see The Mavericks, my last show before Raul Malo died. I don't usually attach a venue to an artist like this but Raul was of course very different.

I'm not watching but I did see a text from @mustangjosh94.bsky.social that just said "Bacon slid off the griddle" 🤣

also though, my things we can rely on list starts with Kerry causing a caution

I might need context here friend because he is just dumb enough to make me wonder if this is a direct quote

cannot imagine this life for myself

"That's just the way it is" - Bruce Hornsby at the Orpheum tonight, probably, while I cry about a dead race track

Stopped to see if Beaver Dam got the dozer yet but didn't get far. Lots of recognizable structures still up. It's weird to experience the entire life of a race track - I was here from the first WoO show.

My sister-in-law speaks French and my brother used Granby (on Flo and going in real life) to ease her into dirt track culture.

We have to get from Plymouth to Madison tonight for Bruce Hornsby so obviously we drove an extra 45min the wrong direction for a Forbidden Naan at Ryan's on York in Manitowoc and a visit with the Badger.

It’s Decorative Gourd Season, Motherfuckers

Breakfast and a long overdue catch-up with @tjslideways.bsky.social

Hotels near dirt tracks have a lot of conversations with corporate that corporate doesn't understand, I bet

Sign asking hotel guests not to use Hotel towels to clean cars

Sign telling race car haulers where to park

The great thing about a claim rule is that it's never about an actual advantage, it's about a perceived advantage. Team Chaos wins that one every time.

Ben I am just Team Chaos forever and always. I was raised by Wissota and IMCA and it shows.

Happy 9th anniversary of being a Dirt Track Guy to this absolute smoke show

well well well look who woke up long enough to tap her watch on a point of sale machine @adaventurer.com

I had forgotten the feeling of being so dirty it's subcutaneous

Due to comically poor planning on our part, our kid's first "beater" car is probably going to be a pretty sweet Jeep Wrangler. She does not appreciate that we keep pointing out that she could easily be a push truck driver here at the Plymouth Dirt Track.

It's easier to name the A mains she's been awake for. This was her first

she once asked me to ask @gibvoice.bsky.social to record himself reading her favorite bedtime story but honestly what he's already doing seems to work

Dear Interstate Racing Association, the people don't want two dashes. The people want a motor claim rule. It's me, I'm the people.

Announcer: That leaves us with just one question - RACE FANS ARE YOU READY TO GO RACING? Zach: There's two questions left because I don't know if I won the 50/50 yet.

did I tell my family there would be 4 classes tonight, of course not, I focused on the cheeseburgers

apparently we have like a 4-way IRA championship situation which means the night will be filled with IMPLICATIONS, exactly how I like it

I think at least 3 out of 5 members of my family were swayed into going to the IRA race tonight with me by the reminder of the Texas toast grilled cheese cheeseburger situation at Plymouth Dirt Track.

Feature Winners: Friday, September 25, 2026

Feature winners from last night at @tjslideways.bsky.social because I need you to see Don Don ON TOP. I had to catch the replay because I was resting up for REAL LIFE SPRINT CARS IN CENTRAL TIME tonight at Plymouth with Teej himself.

feels like we've entered our third hour of qualifying at Eldora and the Outlaws are still in my personal time zone hell so I guess I'm going to get into baseball or something

I actually feel sorry for Cleveland today

I went to an entire Melissa Etheridge concert tonight and drove home and we're doing fence repair in heat races on Dirtvision, god I hate time zones

Knowing local rules and a judge's preferences can be as serious as knowing when to put pineapple on a pizza. Attorney Townsend discusses how important it is to hire an attorney who is familiar with the local rules and customs. #highlyskilledlawyer #rockfordil #freeportil #familylaw #divorce
