Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I llike it that today is probably the only day each year I eat quite a few slices of white turkey meat, but the tryptophan combined with the volume of food can almost knock someone out!  For the rest of the day, anyway. Enjoy the long holiday weekend!

Good news... I haven't paid attention to F1 much in the last few years, but used to be a huge fan...from reading about it in Road & Track as a kid in the late 70s to watching on tv whenever I could find it from the 80s through the early 00s, then again in 10s.

I’m always puzzled why most stations play 1 or 2 songs of a particular artist over & over, when they have so many good songs that are skipped over?” ...Brian R, GA: "If radio was always like this, I’d be listening to the radio all the time." One of these days, I may finally be able to visit regularly like I did back in the day....
