Um, so when responding to guys at Match.com, it can be very interesting what you discover when you're completely open and honest.

First, saying you're a NASCAR fan will get the guys pretty quickly (if they're any kind of racer or fan - seems motorcycles and NASCAR are a good match). I don't know if it's because women don't want to seem too "butch" for the guys or what, but seems a few of the guys are amazed that I admit to it. Huh.

Second, okay, I'm a sucker for anyone that admits to working with racing. Not with NASCAR, but there's been one guy that races on the weekends, and one guy that builds engines. I think it's the fact that they're obviously doing something they love (and something that I understand).

The funny part is, I responded to one guy that lives *way* down near Myrtle Beach. Because he races. Well, and I liked his profile. *g* And who knows, it could work, even if it is 3 hours away. But what cracks me up is that I respond to him, he writes back, and by the way, he's friends with Bobby Labonte. *giggles* I don't buy that really, but you know, whatever. At least he picked a cool guy!

So that's my amusing anecdote of the morning. Hmmm. Maybe I should press him to see if B.Lab is going to Ganassi.

Can I just say...I'm getting paranoid, because NASCAR.com seems to have a tendency of popping out funny anecdotes about the drivers or races, and the anecdotes were said by [livejournal.com profile] bubblesbrnaid on race day. Dude. Weirdness. (B, you did make a comment about the national anthem singer and Michael Jackson didn't you? I'm not crazy am I?)

I'll also be hoping like mad crazy that Ken Schraeder stays with the 49 car next season, because they've named his farewell tour. Schrader's Schwan Song. OMG YES! Please Kenny! Stay! Stay!

Why yes, it takes very little.

Something I'm tempted to say when people call:

Caller - C
Me - M

***

M: [Company Name]

C: May I speak to [Valerie Powers]. I'm returning her call.

M: Would that be "returning her call" as in, she called you and asked that you call her back, or would that be "returning her call" as in, she left you a voicemail asking for one itty bitty bit of information, informed you that you may email it to her or leave it in her voicemail, and you're calling back hoping to speak with her in the vain hope that she'll spend lots of money on your piddly ass radio station if you can just say "hi"?
