Hamilton NOT to be blamed
Hamilton is not guilty of the pit lane crash during Sunday's race, according to Norbert Haug.
What? Hamilton ran right into the back of a stopped car at a red light in the pits! He is 100% at fault. Period. He goes onto say how good Hamilton was driving in the race, well, he couldn't have been driving to well, for he hit a parked car. Perhaps lack of focus?
I wonder if I could get off "guilt free" if I run into a parked car next time I am out for a drive?

Polish Victory!
Polish Victory!
BMW Sauber scored their first ever Formula One win today in the Canadian Grand Prix. As did Pole Robert Kubica, winning his first ever race and the first ever win for a native of Poland. Lewis Hamilton, took out Kimi Raikkonen. Raikkonen and Kubica were stopped side by side at the exit of the pit lane because the red light was on. Hamilton apparently failed to realize that two cars were stopped and that the light was red. He ran right into the back of Raikkonen.
Points
Drivers Championship: Constructors Championship:

Idle Laws...
Idle Laws...
Big Brother is working hard for us in Minneapolis. A new city ordinance prohibits cars from idling longer then three minutes. The reasoning: to help with pollution. They say it is good for us becuase it saves fuel and hence, money. Personally, I like deciding for myself what is good for me. And, global warming is a hoax (proven so by many factors), so that doesn't concern me. The government intruding into our lives concerns me.

Police State
Police State
LINK to Washington Post story.
Washington, D.C. police are going to begin checking to make sure people have a legitimate reason for being in certain parts of DC. On top of that, they will be arrested if if they fail to cooperate with police. Is this not a free country? I should not have to explain my reasoning for being in a particular part of the city. It isn't even a logical way to stop crime. What about people who walk into the area?
Our freedom is being taken away.
