In the spirit of the thread, I've changed my shirt 3 times today.

And my dinner sucked. I was grillin on the propane grill, which ran out of gas, so finished steak in the oven. It wasn't great. Fries weren't good, and spinach salad with feta, olives, and toasted pecans was the highlight. Might need some coffee before i attack the next round. |

Yeah, the cigar is burning low here. So the move inside is coming soon.
Think I'll stick with the work iPad for screen and phone for audio as I've run all day. No shirt change but I've been outside all day. |

As someone that has never been to Le Mans but has watched 18, be careful that you don't mess up your timing and miss the end! It's happened to me a couple of times (although it traditionally ends at 9am where I am).

Yeah, I'm leaning toward the record the next 6 hours and catch the end with the alarm.
I've had more than a few years where LM24 ended at 2 in the afternoon on the DVR when I fell out at 4-6am Eastern with only a couple hours to go |

I think For both Andrew and me it is well over 30 years since we watched the race live on Tv, and thinking about it 1/3rd of a century ago there was no real live coverage on tv.

I've never watched it on the TV. Ever. Until now. The first time I went in 1986 was the first time I had seen the race.

I have to be awake for the finish. My guess is that I'll be in Conyers on I-20 for about 10 mins at the finish, with RLM on the van audio.
I'm gonna push through another hour here, then get what I can in the AM before departing for the 2 hr drive to the second kid footie match of the weekend. |

Yep, that's the default way to do it, but don't use the ctrl-alt-del method all the time, it doesn't always work

Came back after my eyes were shut for a few hours and my stream had stopped. First time all day, but just had to hit refresh and it was all good.
