Nope, but did you see how he held the lead for the first 18, dropped
back to 41 and a lap down, then worked all the way back to threaten
the lead? He's one to keep an eye on for next year's Demolition Derby.

BTW, no relation to Richard Gilliland (the actor), either.

He's a strange bird. A humanitarian, but a strange bird.

LOL!!! Which one?

Just kidding. My branch on the tree grew from a long line of thieves
and drunks that staggered out of the Ozarks. You won't see many of
them getting much public attention outside of a court or lynch mob.

You're starting to sound like Steve Earle.

That's funny. It's amazing what we find in our ancestry. I imagine back
in the day folks in the hills weren't much different than the rural
folks in the south. Whiskey, agriculture, cattle and whatever made the
dime.

He seems like a good kid in the few interviews I've seen of him, and he
gets up on the wheel too.

I might start rooting for him.

You cannot root for him as long as he's driving
a Ford, right?

Anytime I hear the name Gilliland I think of you now. It ain't a real
common name around here anyway so it's not very often.

Go #38

What did Richard Gilliland star in?

I didn't notice what he drove. I don't hate Fords.... they made the
Fairmont and the Taurus, two of the most dependable cars ever built
(don't know why they dropped the Taurus, that was pretty stupid). Ford
steering systems are excellent. And the 300 I-6 was probably one of
the best engines ever made by -any- auto manufacturer. I even own an
LTD for those long road-trips.

But then again, they did make the Edsel and Pinto....
