==VFK Memorial Day Weekend 2014 Racing Extravaganza - Race Day Results!==
Congratulations to all our racing participants, this year's VFK Memorial Day Weekend Racing Extravaganza has never been so exciting!
As each racer ran the race course on Sunday, the servers received over 200 incremental reports indicating where the racer's car was on the track for each race. Each of these 200 reports includes not only the location of the car, but also time, velocity and direction. Taken together with the start and end server times recorded on the server, this race was amazing in every way!
Below is a visual representation of the paths taken over the race course by each of the winning racers:
 
After completing the analysis of all of the recorded data, here are the winners of the two lap VFK Memorial Day Weekend 2014 Racing Extravaganza Race Day Course!

Beware! Today is Friday the 13th! For those who suffer from fear of Friday the 13th, this is a good year. There is only one occurrence of this terrifying day and that is today! The confluence of both the thirteenth of the month as well as the sixth day of the week, Friday, has been an issue since ancient times. This unfortunate coincidence of the number 13 and Friday, occurs from one to three times a year and is dreaded by many. Some people avoid going out of their house, or eating at restaurants on Friday the 13th, and some who are particularly fearful may even stay home from work! On today's quest, get out your four leaf clover, your horseshoe and your rabbit's foot and let's take a look at the unluckiest day of all, Friday the 13th!<BR><BR>

It's totally, completely, amazingly SUMMER again!! I know! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?? It's like back with all its Summery sunshinyness! Warming the sand... making the ocean sparkle! I mean, Summer is like the most totally bodacious of all the seasons! So, I'm like, "We need to totally KICK this Summer 2014 off with a humongous splash!" and then Rad's like "Whoah! What if we like got some paper...and wrote numbers on it! Then the party peeps could score our little diving buddies and have the most majorly Splashtastic Diving Competition in history! And BBQ, of course!" and I was like "Rad, that is so supremely insiprationalist!" So, we dug out the box of craft supplies and started drawing. We should have all the doodles done and we're ordering the most humongo case of hotdoggies for the BBQ... EVER!
Oh, and don't forget to practice your fancy diving moves, 'cause we've got a box of prizes for the divers with the best scores!

Even when it's winter, I'm totally thinking of summer! It's just so awesomely awesome, you know? So... like it was all snowy outside… (I know!) and I had a major case of the bummer-it's-not-summer-blues! So, I got out my new sketch book and color pencils (a Christmas gift from Rad<3) and I like started doodling, and without realizing it...like MAJORLY GASP!!! I had made some totally warm and vibrant summer fashion sketches. The winter blues just melted in the ray of their summery summerness , you know? I'm like, WOW, these would be so totally RADICAL for a new Summer Clothes line at the Inland Ocean Shop!! But then I'm like, wait! Isn't there some way everyone can like make these their own? You know, like give it their own twist that's all their own! Then I remembered all those cute little sheepies running around and the soft baumwolles, and wow! What if we like mixed them! Then, everyone can make these in any color they dream!
So as the French say: Surprise! Watch for my new line of Summer Patterns coming to the Inland Ocean Shop today, June 20th!

<I>Heyho!
This summer is warming up fast! Like the sand was so hot yesterday at the beach, I had to wear flip-flops just to walk on it, you know? ...Then I totally realized, we've got to have some hot summer fashions to cool off in, like... something we can relax in while we sip smoothies and watch the sunset over the ocean! Of course they had to be supremely summery! Cool yet chic! So I grabbed my sketch book and WOW! The new designs just flowed to the page like a cool ocean breeze! They are SO majorly AWESOME! So, then like just as I was finishing my sketches and my smoothie (Delish!) Buffy came by! And I'm like "Hey!" and she's like "Hey! Are those new summer clothes?" and I'm like "YEH"! Then she wanted a closer look, and when she saw them, she said had to have them in her store! And I'm like "Ohhhh Way COOL!" So, watch my newest summer designs arriving at Buffy's in the Gold Stamp catalog at 4:00 PM Pacific Time (7:00 PM Eastern Time) Tuesday, June 24th!
Love ya,
Nixie <3</I>

Let's take a look at the last century, and some of the fun crazes that captured everyone's attention! Have a FAD-ulous time learning about the history of fads!<BR><BR>
