Hi All [:D] <br /> <br />It is 68 degrees at about 6pm. All in all it was a nice day. The only low point was when I opened my 401k quartely statement from the bull. The bull may be bullish on America but I am not too bullish on the bull. My portfolio's cumulative rate of return for the period is . . . -0.39%. Yes, you read it correctly it is a negative number. I had Fidelity at two other companies and always did well with them. About 4 or 5 years ago the current employeer switch from Fidelity to the bull. I have never done well with the bull. Needless to say I am not too happy with the bull. <br /> <br />I have been outside doing a few winterization projects and a mosquito found me. I have heard that only the female bites. lol [;)] Fitting. [:D] <br /> <br />TO THE TRAINS [:D] <br /> <br />I have always wondered why European steam engines and American steam engines looked so differently. They did have some nice looking engines but, in my opinion they also had some strange looking ones too. But they probally have thought the same about the American steam engines. I guess it depends upon which side of the pond you grew up. A while back someone posted a pic of a European steam engine which was blue. The poster said his son wanted it for Christmas. I don't remember which forum or thread it was posted in but the engine looked really nice. I think Lupo finally helped identify the engine, it is in a railroad museum somewhere in Europe. It was a nice looking model and the real one wasn't too shabby either. If someone offered to give it to me I certainly wouldn't turn them down. (Believe it or not I have had forum members mail me HO engines as gifts. We have such wonderful forum members ! ! ! [:)] But that is a bull by a different name, namely John. [;)] Some of you will figure that one out. [}:)] [;)] ) <br /> <br />Well, I never got around to cleaning out the floor furnance. Our forecast is for highs in the 70s and one or two days in the 80s. The lows at night will be 50s, so I can handle that for another week. <Jim crosses his legs, toes, fingers, and eyes.) <br /> <br />Well I think it is time to start a few burgers and tots for supper. None for the bull though, he got his already. [B)] [:0] <br /> <br /> <br />
