Kaybli, have you always worked from home? For the last 7 years. I used to have to go in from time to time but since the pandemic, never. |

So you practicing for the dragstrip pipps? Well, you can only practice so much. I had to change cars because some issues developed with my cousin's GTO. So now I'm in a 1970 Dodge Charger SS. I've been practicing at an abandoned corporate center where I can let it fly. I don't want to see the flashing lights behind me if I try it on a public road. But I can't practice the most important part, which is reaction time to the countdown lights used at the track. You can only do that at the strip. It's a lot of fun though. I just like the idea of driving fast without having to worry about being pulled over. |

I only half heard the question. Was it five SSs other than Seager who were World Series MVP?

Pretty close, except it's burnt orange. Yeah, I haven't driven a manual transmission in probably 20 years, but it came back quickly. I learned on a manual back in the day and mostly had them until the mid-80s. Plus we have driven a lot in Europe and until the early 2000s it was hard and expensive to rent an automatic. But in this case all I have to do is floor it on a flat, straight track for maybe 15 seconds. No downshifting or starting on steep hills. It's fun. Feels like high school!! |
