The steady stream of hot air emanating from local club promoters and county commissioners is usually enough to power the heftiest of sailboats. Although a cross-continental cold front is expected to blow in a strong gust originating from the Academy Awards -- where the movie industry patted itself on its collective back for rewarding the line “This is one doodle that can't be undid, home skillet,” after months of squabbling with writers who didn’t have stripping as a career back-up plan.

Postrace social events are scheduled for tonight, Saturday, and Sunday. Check out www.premiere-racing.com for more breezy banter.
