My Times

This week I finally managed to understand how to set up CGI Scipts.
My first attempt is this somewhat tongue in cheek Survey.
This is only the beginning!

The site of the week is The Exploding Head Page.
Always good for a laugh in an election year!

My album mixes are almost done.
I'm working on the final cover design as well as the CD Plus section of the CD
Any suggestions as to your favourite CD Plus would be most welcome!

As I near the finish of my record, I'm starting to listen to tapes of other artists needing a producer. Most of what I'm hearing is not very exciting!
Whatever happened to songwriters?

Motor Racing

Is it really unbelievable that Williams are not re-signing Damon Hill for 1997?
Obviously Frank has reasons that are not a reflection of the brilliant contribution Damon has made to the past 5 years of Williams GP.
Frank has never liked spending money on his drivers, and since Rothmans are unlikely to stay in F1 and pay the large salaries, Damon is the loser.
With the chance of BMW returning to F1 in a Williams more likely if they have a German driver, Damon is the loser.
As far as the coveted number 1 that Damon may take with him to another team, all Frank has to do is make sure that Jacques wins the next couple of races!
And we now that Jacques is not getting paid a lot of money!

If I were any F1 team manager I would be clammering for Damon's services. He has proven to be one of the best test drivers of all time! He has always been the fastest Williams driver at their home test track. And that is over 5 years!
Alan Prost knows he has to thank Damon for such a sweet car in 1993.

If I were Paul Stewart, I would get on the phone pronto, and secure the services of this brilliant driver before he ends up taking a ride with the other Silverstone boys, Jordan, where he is sure to put the other french engine on the road to winning!
It would be a mistake for Stewart Grand Prix to miss this chance.

And while I'm at it, the other driver that someone better get quickly is Alex Zanardi. He is proving to be the true class of 1996. I don't think anyone can touch him in Indycar at the moment. He has not been in an F1 car, and had good health for a very long time.
Come on Bernie, make it happen!
