I didn't have my glasses on.... 
How about if just ONE thing comes my way? Is that asking for too much?
I attended the demo derby in Cleveland a couple of weeks ago at the county fair. I don’t understand why this sport isn’t more popular. Right up there with the NFL and MLB.

Would you like to see something really fun? Scroll to the very bottom of this post and play that video. This is what you PRAY to have happen at the demo derby (as long as nobody gets hurt). And call me Mark. Because that’s my name.

I enjoyed this post, Beth! I definitely would think it was an honor to have a car named after me, I like those events but have to wear ear plugs, the crashing and cars ‘revving up,’ can be quite loud! Fun times!
