It's been awhile since I've been on here. I have been lurking every now & then - I think it's because Kasey is doing so well this year and now I have more time on my hands (some call me a fair-weather fan) He's a crazy SOB so we won't listen to him. Even though I have not been here much I have always followed Kasey & stopping by here has become a daily ritual. So I thought it only fair to repost alittle about myself. I have been a member since 7-2-04 I have come and gone so many times. Here is my original introduction post ...

Greetings and salutations: i'm the next person to hop aboard the kahne train and nascar ... Can't actually believe i'm here ... Im not supposed to like nascar ... All these little cars going around a circle ... I get dizzy ... :blink: ... But my brother would always come here on sundays and turn on the race and i'm like "turn that off" ... Well anyway he went to greet the drivers as they came in at the airport for pocono and i was familiar with kasey prior to him showing me that he got his autograph and told me how nice he was and was so open to the fans ... Well i was hooked ... I have watched all the races since pocono ... And have added speed to my surfing favorites on my tv ... This is how i became a fan and i will try to learn as i go along ... I am very interested in the sport and kasey's status as a driver ... So please be patient with me and share any pointers you may have !!!!

It was so funny to look back and read that - I've come a long way I think. I miss everyone and I see Christy has this site jammin' - I was active in making the header/banners at one time as well. You guys are doing a great job I love them. I still make graphics and you can check them out here (if you have Livejournal or just go ahead & join be_exquisite (have lots of NASCAR related items). I am also opening up a freebie request community for graphics as well (it is still in the works but it is getting there) check it out here - again it's for LJ too. All That Jazz Graphics

Well I'm glad to be back - and hope you accept my absence - I missed you guys. You will have to fill me in on how everyone is doing. I hope to be more frequent now and hope to see Kasey get a Championship under his belt.

Melanie.
