we had the pine wood derby again this year and Ross's car won again. very narrow margin of victory this year. every heat is best 2 out of 3 and many of the races had to do all three runs. but he took it the whole way out. still no special reward for the winner. in fact the fist child to get eliminated got their pick of the awards, which was a picture of a real car. so in some ways you were rewarded for losing first. ross won the thin and got last choice of the pictures. he still had a good time though. mark will be doing it next year so he will get most of my help but ross has seen and helped do 2 so he should be ok. i know there are some dads that are gunning for us this time. so ill have to make sure we build fast cars this year.

Why are batman and the joker in the same car together?
You guys should make a big scary trophy for Ross out of paper mache or something!
Frickin communists. The kid who lost should feel like CRAP. Man I hate that sort of dumb dumness.
it is the scout troop run by the church. i tried to get them to do proper rewards this year but they said no. one of the other leaders actually said that we should get a trophy for every kid. i dont want any of the kids to feel bad but where is the incentive to achieve. i didnt think i would have to deal with this at our church.
