An excel spred sheet would do all that as fast as the data is entered
you are working way to hard and way too error prone.

Glen gets to verify his hand numbers with the ones of the tapes, figure
which mile to use, and if the course was the right one. I get to look at
the
56 pages, that's right folks 56 pages landscape style, determine which
vehicle numbers did not set the final records and start looking for the
fastest speed for the blue tags. Can't use the exit speed so those are
lined
out, can't use the quarter mile speed cause tha't only to get on the
long
course, then type them all out for the engraver. Yes, I get calls on why

can't I have the 1/4 mile speed it was my fastest.

Then I'll go thru Glens record stuff trying to match them with Eds
numbers
on following days for the records. I'll do all the certs and send them
off
to Glen who will go thru them and tell me about 20% are wrong, switched
2
numbers, spelled the entry name wrong, wrong date etc. After all the
certs
are correct I'll do the red tags with Glens numbers even if the the
record
on the site is different than Ed's. (just the way it is folks)

While I'm doing this I get to do 3 more El Mirage meets plus the World
Fnals
which is done the same way speed week is....I also get requests for
duplicates, e-mail on where are my tags?, Where are mine from last year
,
etc..By the way I have 15 envelops from the last few years with
undeliverable addresses record certs included.

At this time I would like to prepare my car for World Finals and El
Mirage,
manage and play on a adult Slow-Pitch ball club and watch my grandson
play
Football. I know what I'd rather do--------play soft ball.

I've tried to get fired by Jim Lattin and he says no way. So why
everyone
else is worried about how to get out of their car in a firesuit they
have
never worn, blind folded with a bag over their head. I'll just plunk
thru
the pages of numbers and have a few chuckles.
