RACE WASHED OUT AGAIN



For the second day in a race the Nascar race at the Michigan International Raceway was washed out and they will try again this morning at 10am and they race can be seen on ESPN2. They might be able to get the race in today there is only a 30% chance of rain there today. Hurricane Dean looks like it will make landfall somewhere in Mexico today, the hurricane now is CAT 5 storm and packing winds sustained at 165mph with gusts of 200mph. They say there could catastrophic damage where the storm makes landfall. It sure was I nice day here in Colonial Heights yesterday, the high was in the low 80's most of the day and it was cloudy. Mom & dad are back in CH for few days looking at what they construction crew has done the last few days, mom has also started putting stuff back in her new kitchen cabinets. I will be able to cook again this weekend because went up and got some pots and pans out of storage, I am still going to have get use to the stove though. MICKEY

Uncover hidden muscles
The key to six-pack abs is not 500 sit-ups a day; it's skipping the excess calories. Improved muscle definition comes from losing body fat, not from increasing muscle size. For a healthy lean body, you need to find a balance between exercise and diet. Weight training will condition the muscle, but unless you address your total calorie intake, all that hard work will be hiding under a layer of fat
