    Interesting news..........

     



    Court Ruling from the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Atlanta Georgia
    A seven year old boy was at the centre of a courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.

    The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with the child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible.

    The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.

    After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him.

    After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to Dale Earnhart Jr, whom the boy firmly believes is not capable of beating anyone


    Had to post this just for Davey and the rest of the NASCAR fans, before the race later today. Who knows.............

    Thanks Frank.

    JR is looking for a new career, this just might be the ticket for him......
    What if the "Hokey Pokey" is what it's really all about?

    Couldn't have been a better finish for one driver tho Smoke isn't my favorite. Unfortunately the boy racer took out half of the field when he tried something dumb.

    One blog I read (don't know the bloggers creds tho)has said that Jr might be on his last chance for a good ride this year if things don't pick up.

    Me too, Bob!!!! Been a Smoke fan since he drove for Bob East in USAC.... and Saturday night's finish shows that he's not a driver that intimidates easy!!!!! Block or push on Tony and you will pay the price!!!!!

    As for little e......always been overrated IMO... and all his fans???? Wonder how many of them even knew he existed til Senior got killed blocking for Mikey and him????..... A lack of talent will just about always trump having a famous parent and going through life based on their accomplishments......
