NICELY PUT, BOB!!!!  I think you and I are the only NASCAR-haters on
this list.  Maybe it's because I never had sex with my sister, and maybe
it's because I've worn shoes all of my life, and maybe it's because I
can speak and write the Queen's English, and maybe it's because I don't
watch professional wrestling, but I just don't get it.

NASCAR numbnuts?!?!? - I thought that was implied.
