OT: Clever of you to notice that little change in my hair color since we last talked at that get-together in May. :)

Well, let me just say that they have more opportunities to have fun...the rest is up to them. :)

Michael Schumacher Fastest in U.S. Grand Prix First Practice

Indianapolis, Sept. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Ferrari driver Michael
Schumacher recorded the fastest lap time in Friday's first free
practice session for Sunday's U.S. Formula One Grand Prix.
The 31-year-old German, second in the world drivers'
championship through 14 of the season's 17 races, recorded a time
of one minute 14.927 seconds at Indianapolis Motor Speedway to
edge his Ferrari teammate Rubens Barichello by O.217 seconds.
Championship leader Mika Hakkinen was third quickest for
McLaren, with Jenson Button of the Williams-BMW team fourth best.
David Coulthard, third in the drivers' standings, didn't set a
time because of problems with his McLaren. There is a second
practice session scheduled later Friday.
Schumacher, seeking Ferrari's first drivers' title since
1979, has won six of this year's races, although he trails two-
time world champion Hakkinen by two points in the drivers'
championship. Hakkinen has four wins, and Coulthard three.
Official qualifying at the 4.19-kilometer (2.603-mile)
circuit is scheduled for Saturday, when the grid positions will be
settled for Sunday's race, which will be the first Formula One
race in the U.S. since 1991.
