An Icey January Day in Massachusetts
2009-01-30 21:52:00 Took this picture on an LG Chocolate while out and about, what does everyone think?Update: After photoblogging from my camera phone earlier today, I came online and read this below the photo:This message was sent using the Picture and Video Messaging service from Verizon Wireless! To learn how you can snap pictures and capture videos with your wireless phone visit [Insert VZW Address]. Note: To play video messages sent to email, QuickTime� 6.5 or higher is required.What? This costs me 25 cents to send a picture message and I got an advertisement to boot, say what? I guess I will have to save as draft first, then edit, what's the point, anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?This article originally appeared on RaceDriven.com, visit for more articles.

2009-01-27 21:21:00 In the wireless world, there is always talk of mergers, plans, phones, equipment and more, so when Verizon Wireless finally made it official that they have bought Alltel Wireless, my first thought was about the two companies prepaid (pay-as-you-go service) and second was about Alltel’s sponsorship in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, both seem to be touchy subjects right now, however affect not only me (As a huge NASCAR fan and a current Verizon Wireless Inpulse customer), but a lot of people in some way, shape or form, so what should Verizon consider, if not do?First, the prepaid (pay-as-you-go Service) issue, both Verizon Wireless and Alltel have their own prepaid brands and both are successful in one way or another, Verizon has Inpulse that has three plans with “Pay Only On The Days You Use It” the service plans, the plan does have its advantages and disadvantages.

Which NASCAR merger or alignment will be the strongest in 2009?
2009-01-17 23:59:00 Over the past couple of months during the off-season, there seems to be a new trend in NASCAR due to the tough economy, the merging or for some, alignments of race teams. Merging race teams isn’t anything new in NASCAR, however since this past October, November, there has been a big spike in them, teams are trying to stay alive and with that, interesting partnerships are formed, deals have come together that otherwise in recent years might not have even been considered.One of the most public merger happened last November, which unfortunately means the passing of the first of two iconic race team in NASCAR, Dale Earnhardt Inc., even though I am not a fan of any of the DEI driver lineup nor a fan of DEI since Dale Jr. left at the end of 2007, DEI still holds a place in my heart because this race team was created by the 7-time Cup Series champion, legend and one of my favorite drivers Dale Earnhardt, so when I read the official announcement from the team, it took me by surprise, DEI,...

What would you do with the NASCAR Nationwide Series and Truck Series?
2009-01-09 22:17:00 Last November just before the finale in Homestead for the Nationwide Series and the Truck Series, I wrote a controversial article (published on this blog RaceDriven.com) on merging the Nationwide Series and the Truck Series, over the past couple of months, I have been thinking about this idea at length, I think about this idea every time I surf the internet and read anyone of those articles that features a race team that is struggling or a driver trying to find a ride.Case in point, the DEI-Ganassi Racing merger comes to mind with a question mark on their Nationwide program as one, JR Motorsports still looking for a little more sponsorship for his #88 car even with GoDaddy.com stepping up for more races or a Truck Series team closing up shop due to no manufacturer support, let alone no sponsor, the point is in this tough economy, which is everywhere, yes even in NASCAR, something’s need to change for NASCAR, teams, owners, driver to stay afloat, whether that’s mergers, removing ...

The Final Lap: The success, surprises and struggles of the 2008 NASCAR Spri
2009-01-08 22:37:00 As I sit here celebrating the New Year’s, I would like to cap off 2008 with taking a final lap back through the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Season with the success stories, the top 35 that changed after the season ended and the struggles.The success stories in 2008 Cup Series season was dominated in the headlines and on-track by three drivers, Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards and Jimmie Johnson, how? Simple, in the first 26-races, the season really belonged to Kyle Busch, Busch scored 8 victories, what can you say about Kyle, either you love him or hate him, however I can’t say either, hate is a strong word to me and I don’t hate Kyle. But while Kyle Busch is a good wheel man, he can drive just about anything on wheels meaning Cup Series, Nationwide, Trucks, dirt cars and more and can drive even a really loss racecar, he still just doesn’t get it. His attitude, the way he drives around others, he doesn’t care, he does whatever it takes to win, even in my opinion, wrecking, sorry... More About: Nascar , Success , Final
