Owner thinks cat's marks honor Earnhardt. "Honey, we're rich!"
Edited on Tue Jan-13-04 11:09 PM by Wonk
Deland, Fla. -- First it was the Dale Earnhardt goat, now it's the Dale Earnhardt cat.

David Albury was at home recuperating from surgery several months ago when he noticed the black fur on his cat's back was shaped in the number "3." The fur screamed "Dale Earnhardt" to Albury.

He told his wife of 30 years, "Valerie, we're rich."



Albury, a NASCAR fan who regularly watches the races on television, called up the Daytona International Speedway to see if officials there were interested. The Speedway officials suggested he call Dale Earnhardt Inc. based in North Carolina. He hasn't gotten a reply.

1. NASCAR is the professional wrestling of motorsports and attracts...
hundreds of thousands of fans just like this nimrod.

I hope Dale Earnhardt, Inc says no thanks, but he made into the press with this cat so he will probably get something out of it.

HEY! i just noticed my Boston Terrier looks like a......um....fat little bulldog. oh well.

2. that's actually pretty cute
but i'm not sure how you parlay it into being rich. sell the cat for $$$? take it on tour? or put it out to stud in hopes of more 3's (or other numbers)?

well, he could be on to something

5. Just like the Jesus tortilla
or the Virgin Mary shadows cast from the bank window, or even the constellations of stars. It's the brain's way of trying to make sense of and organize the information it receives.

I feel sorry for Earnhardt's family, having to deal with stuff like this.
