You make the caption...

"Gee Howard, just like you in life, these trains go round & round in circles and get nowhere!"

[FJ and G]

ACT III
(last & final act, thank goodness!)

A few weeks have passed. Harry is in his normal spot, in the middle of the train layout. "It keeps me centered," he likes to say. Mildred is in the study room balancing the checkbook. She is checking credit card receipts and comes across some from Harry that have her concerned. She enters the sacred trainroom, where Harry's Lionel PRR K-4 is barreling down the tracks, trying to make up for lost time.

"I see you made several more large train purchases."

Harry doesn't bother to look up, as he's focused on throttle control.

"You are spending way too much money on trains. Some of these purchases are for over a thousand dollars. I don't see how anyone can pay that much for trains; and that's just for a single locomotive! What do you have to say for yourself, Harry?

Harry is focused on getting his passenger consist around a slow coal drag. He doesn't look up or respond.

"WELL, WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY!?" she yells above the chuffing sounds, and a large belch produced by Harry.

A few moments pass before Harry responds.

"What's the question?"

"Dang it, Harry, you're impossible!"

"Mildred, need I remind you of the trip to the mall the other day, where you bought your twelfth pair of shoes in as many days? And the trip to Victoria Secret. You know that stuff doesn't look dignified on you and it's as expensive as all getout. Heck, they must make a hefty profit with such flimsy, skimpy material and hi prices. And, that newfangled flowery dress you're wearing..."

"You noticed my new dress; oh, that's sweet of you Harry," she preens, jiggling her body and doing poses.

"Harry, do you think this dress gives me a full figure?"

"You mean does it make you look fat?"

She nods.

"Yes," says Harry, not even looking up from the controls.

(a few weeks have passed after paramedics carved Harry out of his access hole and another situation develops).

ACT II

Mildred is wearing her new hearing aid so she can hear Harry's rants and raves.

"Harrrry dear."

"Hush, woman. I'm trying to radio the dispatcher. I can't be bothered."

"But I've got a birthday present for you."

(becomes attentive)

"Huh? The NYC Hudson."

(Mildred nods with wide grin and pulls out the box)

"It was 10 percent off because they say you're a preferred customer"

(Harry's face turns beet red and foam forms around his lips as he becomes livid).

"Woman, return that MTH Hudson this MINUTE!!!! You know I only buy Lionel."

[dougdagrump]

You did what with your retirement portfolio ??????

[FJ and G]

ACT I

"What did you say, Harry?"

"I said, the liftout section is stuck and I'm trapped."

"What?"

"I'm TRAPPED!"

"I'm sorry, Harry, I can't hear you."

"Call 9-1-1"!

"OK, I'll bring your milk and cookies, Harry."

Looks like the wife might be saying. " Okay Joe,Now its time to build one of these out on the back patio again. And, make sure there is enough room for the Dog to sun herself on"

PBJ WIlson,
I would suggest you change your caption, as younger forumites might consider it inappropiate.

[FJ and G]

I had a great caption but after reading yours I threw in the towel. [:D]

[Dr. John]

Yes, dear, the layout IS very nice, but don't you think it's going to be a bit uncomfortable for us to sleep in the closet? After all, this IS a one bedroom apartment!

[Anonymous]

Finally!, I have you cornered, now I want my $2 you owe me!

[Anonymous]

Strange!? ....This grass feels a lot like my new faux fur coat.

[jwse30]

Chief, it's time to come home; dinner's ready! [:)]

[wrmcclellan]

"I liked it better when you spent all your time on the CTT forum..."

What is this picture? A scene you will never see at the Chief's house!

[ChiefEagles]

Toots [Chuck], you know I am a lot younger than you but you act more like a kid!!!!!

OH TOOTS, its "my spare bedroom".

[Big_Boy_4005]

That's nice dear, but I'm getting dizzy.

[Blueberryhill RR]

Chiefie, get these trains out of my closet !!!!!!!!!!

[cnw1995]

"OK, I see you're finally finished. Now, how are you going to get out?"

"You know, your model isn't very prototypical. The paint scheme is the wrong shade for this era and it was never run with two coaches like that."

[csxt30]

I saved this one someone put on a long while back, but will be interesting to see some new captions. Thanks, John

If anyone is able to beat the above caption, I'll be VERY surprised. GREAT!

Found this in Readers Digest, thought it would be fun to make captions for it
