Thanks Ken!  LOL, I don't follow college ball that much, so you must be right!

Cheers,
Griff

I will tell my wife! :) Interestingly enough her sister gave her a new watch for her birthday (a Phillipe Starck fashion watch), I just got her the purse she wanted.  My younger son is the gamer, my older son likes watches.  If you look at the photo of us, you can almost see him thinking, "hmmmm, what new game can I get for my PSP/PS2/GameCube/GameBoy" :P

Cheers,
Griff

Thanks Steve!  What a relief...whenever I go into these things I never know, no matter how much preparation there is still quite a bit of luck involved.  Between setting up the track, computer, software, screen, projector, intercom and sound system I don't have much time to think about the race until it is actually over!

We took my wife out to dinner at her favorite restaurant for dinner too :)

Cheers,
Griff

Update:  Pinewood Derby District race today, my son placed first in his rank (Bears) and 3rd overall against 60+ Scouts from all over our county.  It was a looooong day, 4 hours on my feet calling races, but it was worth it!  Dad is very proud :D

Cheers,
Griff
