me,a couple of pieces of bacon and potatoes are also bringing a nice smell
from the fire also.Sorry got to goooooo.................................Dave Br.

I don't think it's "SPLAT!" I think the train in emergency is all you'll hear.

You know, what a thought. Not only ship the planes, but be able to have them land on a flatcar, have the wings detach, and power themselves through the tunnel without a loco.

I like my eggs over easy, and save me some bacon. lol
