I had a sheepish chuckle over that slogan on the road. What's the deal with the A-Style logo? I musta missed that one.

I'm sorry about the quality of the picture, but I took a photo of the TV screen showing a videotape at SLP and then reduced the picture quality further to get a file under 100K in size.

OH...and did anyone else see the marriage proposal on the road today?

It is a Bikini girl. Had to see it like 3 times in the expanded coverage tonight plus this morning live to finally figure it out. People certainly had time to do some major art work on the road.

RIP THEIR BALLS OFF LANCE!

That was the best one--even better cuz it was right after LA passed Basso
