Ummm... on my "this week" (March 14), page 28 is the schedule for the national events... Am I missing something? Like maybe an issue?

PS - It's just Chris. I had to use my full name here because apparently some other "Chris Williams" decided to register here at the Mater But bumping into other Chris Williams's is not uncommon for me, I've been a rock singer who killed himself a few years ago, a writer for Mythbusters, a star in the movie Dodgeball, and where I used to work, there were FIVE "Chris Williams"s -- boy did email get messy there

Back in the early 90s when I was in college (holy smokes I am getting old) I used to have campus police pull me out of class looking for Chris L Cook ... and sure enough I am Chris L Cook ... but I am 6 foot 3 and white, the other Chris was 5 foot 10 and black, god forbid they actually read the description on their paperwork. The first time, they got me all they way to the campus police station with me screaming the whole way "you got the wrong guy" ... they were like yeah right, we've heard that one before ... the bursar used to come looking for the other Chris L Cook too and would find me, apparently he had issues paying his tuition on time as well. I finally found out his middle name was Lynn, and mine is Lee, so I would come up in the computer first by alphabetical listing. The lazy SOBs just wouldn't look to see if there was more than 1 Chris L Cook on campus. By the end of the semester they stopped bothering me, so either the other Chris left school or they finally figured it out.

If I remember correctly ND is sent 3rd class mail, unless of course you pony up more $ for a first class subscription.

Chris, can you give us a quick overview of what 3rd class means?

Re: National Dragster

I didn't want to start a seperate topic on this but I think the reader's choice issue is especially a good one. Great article on Mark Oswald, I'm kinda biased because of the time he spent with Candies & Hughes. But he seems to be one of the really "good guys" out there. Also a tow other great articles on some more of my childhood favorites, the "Chi-Town Hustler" and Pat Foster!!!!
