DRAGSTER
I went to The First Annual Power Tool Drag Races yesterday at a great junk yard.

Highlights:
~ Spending a whole afternoon standing atop a mid-'80s Buick Skylark, that sat atop another car, too crushed to identify.
~ Realizing the snowcones were a better part vodka.
~ The absurd amount of time, money and, solder people blew through to "customize" (trash) perfectly good power tools so that they might fly down a 1 ft. wide, 100 ft. long track.
~ Trying to identify the bastardized power tool before the announcer told us what it was.

FAVORITE DRAGSTER: A 10 amp belt sander with a big brown teddy bear hot glued to the top. It was called "Teddy Bear's Terrible Picnic."

BEST CONTESTANT: The 13 year old girl who just took a belt sander out of a box, hooked it up to two 100 ft extension cords and kicked everyone else's ass.
