none of the above.

Sorry that I havent taken the time to write a new post to my blog lately, I have been a little busy. I have three major beefs to complain about and its going to be a bumpy ride. So pull up your socks and hang on.

Bitch one. Candidates running for office. We have no viable quality choices. I have been watching the commercials and reading about each of the candidates in most of the local and national races and Ive decided that none of them deserve to be elected. I think that we should have an option at the bottom of each of the choices that should include an option for None of the Above. If None of the Above gets the most votes, then the candidates dont get elected and they dont get to run for office again. Leaving space for new candidates to run for the vacant offices and maybe if this happens enough we will eventually get quality candidates, and voter turn out would increase.

Bitch two. I have quietly said for a long time that all of the marching and parading and protesting that has been done by the "out" gay activists has not actually done any good for the gay movement. Its harder than ever on gay teens to come out and the general voting public votes to abolish gay marriage rights almost everywhere they are allowed to vote on them.

Bitch three. Recently those of us that race cars had the opportunity to attend Competition School at a NASA Arizona event. Cost was $350.00. The school was actually taught by three volunteer instructors that have a combined racing experience totally just about 100 years. The school consisted of two full days of classroom instruction as well as 6 on track sessions designed to give the applicants some actual racing skills and experience before they actually get turned loose on their respective race groups. 15 people attended. My distress comes from the face that one person was allowed to miss classroom time to attend to some personal issues. They recieved more personal instruction than any one else. Was held up to the class as having exceptional skills. That person was also the only one to complain about her fellow students, and complained about the driving skills that were practiced on the track. Never mind that she was like a rolling chicane while on track during the skills. Parking in every corner and complaining about the cars around her being too close. This is racing, open track, pass anywhere, wheel to wheel racing. Pull your head out, stop spending so much time promoting yourself on facebook learn some skills and keep your mouth shut.
