Wisconsin native Matt Kenseth Wins The Night Race At Bristol! It has been a long time since the 2003 Winston Cup Champion won a NASCAR Cup race, but the drought is ended. Those of us who have followed Matt since he started racing NASCAR Busch Series in 1997 have witnessed the DeWalt Taurus 17 Team continue to fight through the rash of bad luck plaguing the beginning of this season. Go Matt Go! Two more races till “The Chase”. We Believe!
Four weeks ago, Kenseth was 213 points out of 10th in the standings and seemingly out of the Chase for the Nextel Cup picture. But after finishing fifth at Indianapolis and third at Michigan, Saturday's victory moved him to with 11 points of 10th place and into the thick of the greatly tightened Chase battle.What an excellent way to finish a day at Liberal Central, or more precisely the 35th Ward of District 6, attending Marquette Neighborhood’s Orton Park Festival. The opportunity to hear Chris Plata and Robbie Fulks perform outside underneath century old oak trees is to good to let pass. As Robbie says on his website, “mechanical reproductions of popular music are properly classified ephemera”, or in other words, reality is always better than recording.
On our way out of the park, Lola and I remain vigilant for the Orton Park Ghosts, but there are only moonbat’s in the dark. Any actual paranormal observations should be reported to the Madison Ghostseekers Society, if anyone there is still alive.
