On the Tuesday night Goat Rodeo following the Fontana, California run-ins between Joey Logano and Denny Hamlin, as well as the Logano/Stewart after race theatrics, our own Legend , Tim Leeming, questionned how all the goings on might affect the "Coke Family" , seeing as how all of the above mentioned drivers participate as spokespersons for the soft drink brand.

If you watched the Martinsville race telecast, you got your answer. Seems those southern marketing folks over Atlanta way are pretty sharp and pretty quick. Here's the spot they prepared for Martinsville following Fontana. My hat's off to the Coke marketing folks and their agency for quick, tongue-in-cheek work.

Unfortunately, I installed my renewal security software on my computer yesterday afternoon and now, for some reason I can't figure out, I have NO sound for anything. No YouTube, and no music, and no sound here. I have checked out Skype and that seems to work fine,but I have no other sound. I did not see or hear the commercial on television because I no longer LISTEN to the television broadcast for reasons well known around these parts. I do listen to the radio and watch the race. I will try, however, to unmute the TV during this weekends events if I see that commercial come up. And if there is anyone out there who can tell me what I need to do to get my sound back, let me know. Everything shows it should work, but it doesn't. I know I'm not deaf yet because I can still hear my keyboard click!

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.

Click Start (lower left corner), click control panel, click sound and look to see that you have a speaker as default. Click on it the sound playback tab.

Next check your settings for your security software. This is where I would start. Also, what version of Windows are you using? Check your internet properties. Make sure your security setting is Medium-high. If you need help with this, give me a ring.

That was really smart!

BUT....I have a feeling that when these commercials were made, there was something else on the flip down screen. I have a BIG feeling that the 'Fontana Highlights' audio clip was edited in. Still, a funny clip!
