You're going to want to shoot me.
I thought NASCAR was some Nestle' Corporation marketing gimmick. Very early
on I thought it was some kind of drink, but then walking down the Wal-Mart
aisles I noticed it was obviously the multinational conglomerate's foray
into toys. Makes sense.: NAS (Nestle') CAR (little toy cars). Uglier than
Micromachines, with half the weapons. The part I couldn't figure was why
they were exclusively using country singers for mascots.
And just how well can Jeff Gordon sing? Not too well, I hear...
I've since learned the ugly truth. Arg. I've come out of the
NASCAR-ignorant closet. :-, I think I'll go back in now...
Cheers,
