Tag Archives: Dale Earnhardt

A long, long time ago…
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while.
But February made me shiver
With every paper I’d deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn’t take one more step.
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride,
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.
-Don McLean-
It’s till so hard to believe it’s been ten years since we said goodbye to Dale Earnhardt. I still remember calling my brother, Allan, who was a big Earnhardt fan. He didn’t know that Earnhardt had lost his life that afternoon since the Daytona 500 broadcast had signed off before anyone knew. I happened to catch the news flash on ESPN. Stunned, I immediately called my brother, and after collecting our thoughts, I hung up and called The Rocky’s Sunday Sports Editor, Mike Bialis, who made room for this cartoon on Monday morning.

That apparently is what Jimmie Johnson eats a lot of. I don’t do many NASCAR cartoons, mostly because we have so little of it here in Colorado. But my brother, Alan, is a huge fan. And I know there are a lot more so this is for all of you Roadies!
Don’t worry. More Broncos cartoons to come and The Drew Litton 2010 Wall Calendar is near!!! Stay tooned.
