ten billion butterfly sneezes

Not that I’d know, seeing that I don’t have a sister. I hate to see rain-shortened NASCAR races, especially when the eventual winner had zero chance to win if it weren’t for the rain. Such was the case today, as Kurt Busch was crowned the winner of the LENOX Industrial Tools 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

I know that pit strategy, keeping an eye on the skies, etc, are all part of today’s NASCAR. What galls me is the fawning post-race reporters, who attribute almost Kreskinlike prescience to the driver, crew chief, and owner. What they should ask is “How does it feel to luck one out?”.
