Noproblem> Whaddya mean by "The Owner once called RACEMAN" - you gonna change handles?
raceman> NoProblem, The handle change comes because it breaks my heart that a guy named Kurt one the Cup title. It is a racing thing and I am not sure I still want to be none as the Race Man. I never dreamed that would happen and I so badly wanted Dale Jr. or Mark Martin to win it that I told those in the racing circle that if Kurt won that I may no longer be able to be a Race Man.

Chin up Shawn, (raceman), next year will be upon us soon. Besides that, take a look at the most recent past, say 20 years past or so. How many times has a driver won back-to-back titles? I'll tell ya, 2 times, Gordon and the Intimidator. I doubt the situation that has brought upon this infinitesimal amount of sadness into your being, will occur again next year. Just think about this, the countdown to Daytona is starting today at 57 days...it'll be here before you know it, and the 2004 season will be a distant memory. I'll do ya one better, I know how much you like NASCAR, I feel the same way; if ya keep your chin up and keep the "raceman" handle, I'll treat and take you as my guest to either of the Michigan races this year, if I can get tickets, they usually sell out real quick-like. How's about it Shawn, errrrrr, raceman?
Now to get some semblance or relevancy to the expediting industry so I'll not get spanked by a moderator. I guess winning the Nextel Championship is alot like the expedited freight business. It's not about *winning* the race all the time with the "fastest" time, it's about having the highest percentage of top five finishes. There, that should keep the moderator(s) quiet. <smirk>
