This version of the SteelerDirtFreak Blog has now been revived! I'm going to deal with a lot of my racing photography here. Maybe share a little of what I have learned and what I am learning. I'll include a favorite photo from the previous week (or previous season, when we hit the off season). And of course I'll talk about the latest additions to The SteelerDirtFreak Racing Pictures Gallery.

Here is the next installment in my input to the Top 100 Albums of All Time. Today I've gone ahead and counted down from 40 all the way to 21, which finally actually gets me caught up and then some. No hyper links today, for some reason the formating was coming out all goofy, so it was easier to just do it without. And I'll try to finish my list up on Monday or Tuesday. And now, on with the

Well, we're getting there. Today I've actually gone from 70 all the way down to 41, which catches me up to the official list. So don't forget to stop over there and see how that list compares to the one I turned in as my vote. And with that, here we go... 70. Paranoid - Black Sabbath Probably the best album from Sabbath, helped define heavy metal. Ozzy before he was a total blithering idiot.

Ok, I'm falling behind, I know, but it seems like there is about 100 things that all are needing to be done at the same time here. Andrew has released a couple more sets in his countdown of the Top 100 albums of all time; I'll try to get caught up later today or tomorrow. In any event, here is where he released 80 - 71, and here is my 80 - 71: 80. Fly Like An Eagle - Steve Miller Band This

Not too long ago Rolling Stone did a special issue that listed the Top 500 Albums of All Time. And now, in a similar endeavor, Andrew Careaga, one of the blogosphere's top musical word slingers, has compiled his own list of the top 100 albums of all time. To compile his list, Andrew invited several friends from around the world to submit their own lists, which he then tabulated, and came up with

I just read this article on NASCAR trying to move the older veterans out to bring in the young guns. The whole article makes sense, and is just one more reason that I will now go to a dirt race any day over a NA$CAR race. "NASCAR has suggested to many, many people that some drivers cut back to partial schedules," says Rusty Wallace, 47. "That might happen one of these days." And that came from

OK, I know that's a dorky way to put it, but what can I say, I've always liked my cars...got a ride over to the body shop where they towed our car last week....I had to get all of our stuff out of it so that they can do what ever it is that body shops do with totaled cars....I also took the camera with me and snapped a couple of pictures....

Well, Debbie went to the Orthopedic specialist today...he said she suffered a severe whiplash and she has damage to 3 of the discs in her neck. He did switch her to a soft collar instead of the hard one, so that has been somewhat of a relief for Deb. She has to stay off work for a minimum of two weeks, I guess in two weeks he will decide how she is doing at that time. Debbie is still having a lot

Well, here's the update, folks....we just got home from the ER , our Dr. told Deb to go there, we were there for about 6 hours....they did a lot of x-rays, and then they came back in and said they needed to do a CT Scan....end result so far...Deb has severely pulled muscles in her shoulder and back, and some kind of cervical herniated disc in her neck.

I was just reading this article, an interview with Patricia Heaton, and it closes with this quote from her: "I can only believe that salvation is a process—from our perspective," Patricia adds thoughtfully. "I mean, from God's view it's been done. It was finished on the cross. From our view, it's a process. You know, you have a great day one day and the next day you're really struggling. To me,

Having been to so many concerts over the last 28 or so years, it's hard to pick out a specific concert and declare it the best concert. But I am going to attempt to pick a top 10, not in any particular order, but ten shows that really stand out for me. The Eagles Hotel California tour. This was a true classic. Eagles at their best. I found out afterwards that Joe Walsh had a severe case of the

In the 70's and 80's, that truly was my theme song. Rock-n-Roll all nite, party every day....And if a concert came to town, I was there. I just didn't miss any concerts back then. Of course ticket prices were a bit different then, usually tickets were $7.00, maybe $8.00; and everything was what was called festival seating, general admission in the arena seats, no chairs on the arena floor, and

Seems like there has been much talk lately of 80's music, what with that bands reunited and the I Love The 80's shows that VH1 are running; and then there was the Blogger Idol topic on the 80's.

The whole post is very good, but as also noted by The King of Fools, this insight really stood out: For me personally, the most powerful metaphor in The Lord of The Rings concerns the ring itself. The ring seems to me to be illustrative of our ongoing struggle with sin. It is this object that seems to

Tonight was the kickoff dinner for our new Alpha class. This is to be the fourth time our church has run an Alpha class. The last three times have not been overly successful, but from what I have read and heard, this really isn't terribly unusual. But this time, well bigger things seem to be expected. I've got a few questions about Alpha, and it turns out that I'm not the only one thinking along

One of the things that really hit home for me this past weekend while at Mayhem was that everyone has a story to tell, where they have been, who they are, and what has made them who they are. I was talking to someone, and my poor memory can't recall who it was, and somehow it came around to talking about fathers. My dad died on the night of my 13th birthday...and it seems that in so many

ok, the good news here is that for the first time ever, team usa won the world junior hockey championship. they beat canada 4-3 to win the gold medal. now here is the part that figures, especially for us here in the pittsburgh area... The United States won its first world junior hockey title Monday, beating Canada 4-3 after Canadian goalie Marc-Andre Fleury's failed clearing pass ended up in his

From The Hockey Pundits: Toronto Sun: SPORTS - Winnipeg wants the Penguins NHL Hockey in Manitoba again? Guess what? Winnipeg wants the Penguins: The deputy mayor of Winnipeg has asked Pittsburgh Penguins owner Mario Lemieux to consider moving his team to Manitoba. In a letter to Lemieux, Coun. Dan Vandal points out that the NHL is facing "difficult decisions" with an imminent labour shutdown,

i was wandering around over at google, trying to find some really cool new year's blessing or prayer to quote over here, and it just sort of hit me that what i was doing was exactly what we have been talking about for the last week or so. i was trying to force something that wasn't me into something that is me, just so i would have something cool to attract passers-by. or something like that. but

OK, can anyone with some CSS know-how tell me how to fix this page? I want it to have a left column (with the blogroll [#sideBar]), a center column (#mainClm), and the right column with the books and music (#rightSide). But I just cant figure out how to get all 3 columns to behave! And I thought I had finally gotten a handle on CSS.... If you want to take a look at the style sheet, you can see a

Excellent thoughts/questions on small groups in church over at BeChurch right now; these are some of the same thoughts I have had for quite some time. It seems like the Institutional Church, or at least a large segment of it, for some reason thinks that you can somehow create instant friendships via the magical small group blender. Just add 10 strangers, 1 leader, 1 guitar, 4 worship songs,

One of the most outstanding posts I have come across since I have started this blogging journey is over at Alan Creech's right now. The conversation has been great to follow. Here is the main bulk of Alan's post: I've also read a little in blogdom and heard a little talk lately about the term "emerging," referring to the emerging church. Also used is the term "emergent" as well as "postmodern" -

i've seen this in several other blogs, and i thought it seemed like a decent idea, so i've decided to add this in on fridays. 1. What was your biggest accomplishment this year? Getting the web design business and the racing photography going have to be right at the top of the list, but for me, the single greatest accomplishment was achieved at the Racers For Tots Christmas Party when i was told

From Kevin Rains blog, I came to this article by Rachelle on monastic living:(permalink doesn't seem to be working, so I included it here) So this is what I’ve been thinking about monasteries. Paul and I have always wanted to live life out, long term, with others. We’re not generous or brave enough to live common purse, and we’re too messy to share a kitchen with most kid-free folks (and we

According to this article, most Americans are saying, "So what?" to the new terror alert. Could it be that the government has cried "wolf" a bit too much? I honestly don't know what to think of each of these alerts. I guess I sort of also say so what? I mean, what can I do about it anyways?

Just read Jamie's thoughts on Christmas almost being here, and I left this comment: Well, after Stacy's comment, I'm feeling VERY old at 43 (LOL) but it is true that the older I get, the less I 'welcome' Christmas. My Dad died when I was 13, so any holiday has been sort of a downer since then, but after my daughters were born, Christmas did seem to come alive again. But now, they live with their

According to this story, they do, but that control has been rejected, for now. Whew, wouldn't that just be special, having the U.N. controlling all this?

Great topic over at backyard missionary You meet someone or even a small group of people - you don't really click with any of them - in fact you have so little to talk about that the conversation drags. You sense these people may not be long term friends - maybe not even short term acquaintances. They are needy people - not financially but relationally - lonely. They have come together under the

Is anyone going to the Not Alone event in Cincinnati on January 9 and 10? If by any chance anyone reading this is going, and you will be passing anywhere near Pittsburgh, PA on the way there, give me a shout. I really want to get to this, but the doctors still won't let me drive, so I need a way to get there. Thanks.

Well, I finally got the photos edited and on line. You can check them out over here. But here is one photo I'll put up here: The whole evening was great. The amount of toys collected was phenomenal. Filled up one complete tractor trailer, and also a large U-haul. Country-rock band Gunslinger played, they were good as always. Buffo the Clown was an interesting act.

I've been wondering lately what the latest was on Duayne Hommell, the young dirt star so critically injured in a car accident. There is a recent thread on the 4M board that gives an update. Basically, Duayne was sent home from the Rehab in Atlanta because he was not progressing enough for him to be there. So now he is at home and his family are the 24/7 caretakers now.Please keep Duayne and his

I haven't been online much the last couple days because the flu decided to pay us a visit. And it's all that, and more! I'll put up a couple pics from the Racers For Tots deal a little later this evening, and tell about it; it was great.

Racers For Tots Tonight is the Racers For Tots Christmas Party. This will be the first one that Deb and I will attend and we are really looking forward to it. A lot of really cool stuff is going to be in the Chinese Auction, including a Steve Francis helmet (or so I've been told). Kind of wierd to realize that I have a year's web site service in that same auction. I'll be taking pictures there,
