San Carlos Mayor Brad Lewis announced Tuesday he will not soon try out for the NASCAR circuit. At least not until he can keep from crashing. Related Topics: SAN CARLOS
The Pixar producer/director entered last weekend’s Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race in Long Beach to immerse himself in the world of “Cars 2,” which he’s directing.
He said he held a five-second lead in an 18-car field after eight laps, but lost control with three turns to go and slammed into the tire wall at 90 mph. He ended up finishing ninth. However, he was the pole winner, an honor that sent $15,000 to two local charities: Samaritan House in San Mateo and Little Hands Preschool serving Belmont and San Carlos. A rerun of the race will air May 3 on SpeedChannel at 3 p.m.

Guliani (New York), Newsome (San Francisco), Gonzalez (San Jose), Nunez(LA): Four current or former Mayors of major U.S. cities found to be having extra-marital affair, must be a trend, although, come to think of it, people who just love to tell you how great they are, what wonderful God fearing, people they are, and love to tell people what todo and how to think, so called "Leaders" are HYPOCRITICAL LIARS! Wake UP!

I've heard a lot of people saying that the Mayor's extra marital affair is noboby's business. I beg to differ, if he is so willing to throw out the vows he made to his wife and children, what makes us think that he wont do the same to us. He took a vow to uphold the Constitution of the State of California and of the United States; look how well he's done that so far. Character does count and it is everyone's business.
