NASCAR'S Perfume

My main man, Matt Kenseth, won the O'Reilly 300 on Saturday, and nearly won the Nextel race this afternoon at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, Texas: with half a lap to go, Kenseth in the lead, Jeff Burton squeaked by and barely beat him at the checkered flag. Still and all, a pretty good weekend for Number Seventeen. :)


Poem Artwork

... I love the smell of
deisel fuel and oil in the
morning; the scent of

burning rubber in
the afternoon as tires screech
around circular

tracks; the aroma
of sweet, sweet victory as
evening approaches:

it's NASCAR'S perfume.
It's addicting; hypnotic;
so much fun to wear.  :)

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (4/15)

As a kid, I used to smell tire rubber. There was a place that recently closed called the Anderson Speedway where they did the Little 500 and we could hear the cars "whizzing by" like giant bees from where we lived. It was barely one mile away near the factor that closed. . .but that's not a good logistical description because in America just about ALL the factories have closed.

blessin's Sis Karla, have a wonderful week, we'll talk by phone soon. . .

Ya know...My hubby is a nascar freak. Kenseth is the man. I have been fighting against liking nascar because I don't like to see the crashes but I keep finding myself yelling at Kenseth to FIND THAT DANG EXCELLERATOR! I know that Ford has a passing gear!! okay...i'm calm now.

Karla, I'm afraid you are now a likely candidate for a NASCAR 12 step program. LOL
