My Superbowl and I Can Do It Too!!!

What is my Superbowl you ask:? AMA MOTOCROSS NATIONAL @ Glen Helen. Sept 9-10.
I love going to the supercross races at Anaheim but there is nothing like an outdoor National race to me. It is hot, very dirty, a great smell of race gas and you can get within about 5 feet of the track. Stand in the right place and you can get showered with dirt and rocks when they go by (it really is fun). If you have ever ridden a dirt bike, to see how fast they come down a massive hill with ruts and bumps that is so steep we have to grab onto the fence to climb up it is amazing. You can appreciate the balls involved.

I can't wait. I am taking my 10 year old daughter on Saturday - practice day which is far less crowded. She loves Ricky Charmichael and since he will be semi-retiring this may be her last time seeing him (she saw him last year at Glen Helen practice and the Anaheim Supercross this year). I am totally happy that I have a daughter who likes to go since I have no sons. She wants to go on race day but there will be about 20,000 people and no shade (if you have been to the Glen Helen amphitheatre you can consider that shady compared to the area around the track) and she does not do well in the heat. A couple more years and I think she will be good to go.

Also, in order to show the diversity of tastes amongst us bloggers - I to am going to post a song or songs of the day. (but not everyday)

Now this will only come from songs I hear on the radio while driving to and from work so we may have a limited selection but that should make it exciting as they will probably not be that often.

Train in Vain (Stand by Me) - The Clash

They say you stand
By your man
Tell me something
I don't understand
You said you loved me
And that's a fact
And then you left me
Said you felt trapped

Well,somethings you can explain away
But the heartache's with me till this day

Did you stand by me
No,not at all
Did you stand by me
No way

All the times
That we were closed
I remember
These things the most
I've seen all our dreams
Come tumblin' down
I can't stay happy
Without you around

So alone I keep the wolves a bay
And there's only one thing I can say

You must explain
Why this must be
Did you lie
When you spoke to me

Did you stand by me
No,not at all

Now I got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things I can do
But without your love I won't make it through
Without you love I won't make it through

But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing I can do

Stand by me,no way
Stand by me,not at all
Stand by me,no way
Stand by me,not at all
Stand by me,no way

Sweet Dreams - Marilyn Manson version (not the gays u-ryth-miks version)

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused!

I wanna use you and abuse you
I wanna know what's inside you

Movin' on
Hold your head up
Movin' on
Keep your head up

Movin' on!

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused

I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you

Hope this gets my fellow bloggers through.
