What In The World Is Going On ? ? ?
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, August 14, 2004 2:03 AM
<Jim thinking like Dan H. [}:)] [;)] >

I just dropped in the check out the forums and ran across these threads :

Engineers-personal time, tell your horror stories . . .
Another quickie with Mookie . . .
Where is the dispatcher .
(I won't even mention another topic I found with a misspelled word in the title that would REALLY upset the apple cart. [}:)] [;)] )

I really have to wonder what I have been missing! [;)] I try to limit my time in the forums (yes it is a sacrifice but someone has to do it) to study for career advancement and find these topics. Hmmmm, I just don't know. I don't think the couch is big enough for all of us. [;)] [:D] AND who would bring the snacks? We all know how cheap Kev is. [;)] [}:)] [:D] (Is he still in the doghouse or allowed back on the couch?) What about the boxcar with Mookie's chocolate cake? And speaking of "cake" mine seems to be lost in the mail (or is that male?). And where is the mirror? Oh, and WHO has the duct tape now? (I bet L. C. is hiding it.) And speaking of L. C., WHERE is my date? Come on L. C., you said you had a women for me. [:D] [:D] [:D]. Just send the tape with her. [;)] Adrian has all the tape he needs and besides, since he is studying electrical engineering he won't need regular duct tape anymore, he will need electrical tape. [8D]

Well, I am setting the handbrake now so this boxcar won't roll. Nevermind, I will get Ed to do it. He is the pro at it. K. K. can be the engineer when we start the engine since she has "experience" now. HIGHBALL. [:D]


Hopefully the "old hats" will get a kick out of reading this. All the newbies will wonder, "What the heck did he just say?" [}:)] [;)] [:D]

Jim,
Kick it on down, I'll catch it and set the bumper....
Think Dan and Kev hogged out,
LC is on vacation, the cake train was stabbed in a siding,
and Mookie is trying to mark up on the extra board...
