Saturday night your pal Kevin Harvick won the first Busch race ever run in this neck of the woods and won it handily. He led it for the last 167 laps. He kept getting an 8 to 10 second lead and then they would have a yellow flag and he would lose his lead. He would re-open the lead and another yellow. The first pit stop his crew did a heck of a great job. Our seats are about 5 feet before the finish line and his pit crew was directly across from us. He seemed to be the crowd favorite. They gave him a pretty big hand when he won. There were 70,000 plus there. They sold 4,000 standing room tickets. My son Tim was there and called my son Eric who was at the graduation party with us to tell me I had better get moving as traffic was horrible. That was at 4:30. We left the party at 6:30 and avoided the expressway and arrived just as they sang the National Anthem. The jets roared over as we approached out seats. Perfect weather and it was the biggest crowd to witness any sporting event in the tristate area. Pretty good night all around. Kevin is off to Pocono for Sunday's Winston Cup race. I would say the boy can drive. Way off the subject, how do you change the resolution on the computer? Mine is 800 by 600 or something like that.

Gary's sleeping. Go to the task bar (bottom right of screen)and click on the monitor picture. When the window opens up, just click the setting you want and close. I saw the closing stages of the race. Harvick definetly dominated. You were lucky to get such good seats.7 cautions-lots of excitement. Pocono may get a rain out. Still pouring here in NY- At best a green track. They predict a late morning clearing so maybe it will go. ------------------ Yellow is DCOOLEST

Ed - if you don't have a monitor icon - just right-click on your desktop (any area that doesn't have an icon) and click on Properties. Select the Settings tab and you can change your resolution there.------------------ Cliff Watson

Thanks Butchee and Cliff. Neither one worked, however. But Cliff since you told me to hit settings, I went to the start button and then to setting and by sheer dumb luck found it and changed it. The print is so small now I can't read it so I may have to go back to where it was originally. I appreciate the help since I don't have a clue even after a buy a vowel or two from Vanna.
