Quote/Motto: "Every one of these drivers in the garage area, I can speak to because they all speak English, with the exception of Ward Burton. He speaks whatever he speaks. He speaks Ward." -- Tony Stewart
Favorite Driver: Kyle Busch
Who Am I:
Originally from the Washington DC area, my husband and I moved to New York City to pursue the American dream of living in a breadbox-sized apartment. Maybe subconsciously trying to compensate for the move North, I found myself delving deeper into my two passions of NASCAR and Civil War History. I now write a weekly (well I try to be weekly) NASCAR article and listen daily to the Rowdy Podcast.
Favorite Track:
Dover International Speedway
How I discovered Rowdy, and why I Listen:
I found Rowdy on ITunes and never looked back. One Rowdy a day keeps the Jayski away. It's all I need.
Why I'm a race fan:
For spite.
Favorite Music:
Old-school country, a little punk, new wave, glam, hip-hop, and a teeny weeny bit of hard core.
Favorite Movies:
My favorites tend to be documentaries. The last excellent movie I watched was After Innocence.
Favorite Books:
I can't remember the last non-history book I read, but I probably didn't like it.
Vices:
Gosh, it would have to be Rowdy.com. I spend WAY too much time here.
Heroes:
Marilyn Waring: a member of New Zealand parliament in the 80s. Her views on social economics changed my life.
I was hoping my absence hadn't been noticed, but today Buck, Bass, and Cutler made mention of my recent sabbatical from Rowdy.com.
It's not that I've been away. I've kept up with the podcasts and visited the site as much as possible. In fact, the other day I was watching the most recent episode of Jeff Gordon Theater when my new boss walked up quickly behind me and saw the clearly-non-work-related video on my computer screen. Since then, I've been laying low.
Apologies.

Hey Sadie,
I hear you! I think there is a large portion of us who listen to the podcast and visit the site almost everyday, we just get so busy from time to time! It should be a good race this coming weekend. Enjoy!
So I come back on rowdy, then you come back, ya know I havent seen ward burton on here lately, who knows maybe he will show up too...lord knows he isnt at the track...
I'm trying out a new every 45-minutes-go-on-Rowdy-for-15-minutes system. I think you should wait at least a month before you try to incorporate this into your day.
Good deal, Lauren, or Sadie, you could simply quit your job and live for Rowdy. That's what I did and look how happy I am!!
No Lauren he can't be. Buck speaks much faster and in a totally different dialect than Ward!
Unless... maybe Ward was just disguising his voice during his racing career just to throw us off. :)
Wait a minute... I thought Buzz was Ward, Buck was Ms. Manners and Tony Stewart was Farrell... now I'm ALL confused...
