The old body moves a tad slower these days... but the mind is still sharp!

And.... if the scores are so important to you, where were you Saturday?

I know, I know.... drill rewrites!

Yeah John, you haven't sent me the scores yet. The scores page is still half empty. That just does not look right! For some reason it is harder to get scores this year. Maybe people that go to the show are asuming that the circuits will post the scores, now that we are well into the age of the internet, and are not thinking about posting themslves. Well, the circuits are REALLY slow to update their websites for some reason and some circuits (associations) do NOT want to make scores available. We still need people to send in the scores. There is even a handy submit form linked from our scores page.

IMHO most circuits web sites leave little to be desired. they are either all glitz and no substance or look like they were done several years ago and have not kept up with the times...I duuno it take maybe all of 10mins to upload a few files.... Good thing we have WOP or else we be in a world of hurt...

Ohhhhhhhhhh....DOH!!! Good one...rewrites....haaaaa....

Actually, I was in Missouri judging...Matt Savage was on the panel if you happen to remember him from VK days. He was Ramirez's instructor for a couple of seasons...

Anyway, I'm SURE you did a FINE job announcing. Did you use the patented "Speed Award" system, perfected by the legendary Don Gunderson?

Ryan,

Hope you had a great time in the "show me" state.... I suppose that state motto goes along with your first posting. Yes, I will post the scores sometime this week... as it is already old news.

Must stop now... body and fingers hurt too much, and I have 4 bands to rehearse this week.
