Re: What does this mean????

Ok - I had a weird dream last night and I ask Mr. Tanquary to translate. Sebastian Rios had been kidnapped by a topless Gwenn Stefani driving a German WW2 era halftrack, and I'm standing there with a gun, but I can't figure out which one of them to shoot! I kid you not, that was my dream last night...

As long as Brawn, Red Bull, and Force India play..... :shock: :o :? unless they move to kart tracks, i'm not seeing th point of only 6 cars on course. i believe Varsha et all talked about 2 US teams for next year, so your...

Re: Waivers

seems like a shot gun approach with the ruling. did the mother know he was going riding or had she said no and they did it anyway?
i wonder why didn't they narrow it to just requiring both parents

oh wait, that would just make the parents more responsible...what was i thinking
