Belated congratulations to everyone who got stars added while I was away.

Hey, look out for the Loco-muttive! He's gonna get his fourth star really soon!

You know the "fire triangle",remove one and you put the fire out. I believe they established the other one in later years.[:D][:o)]

The way your going, I'm gonna get left behind in the dust. I see the flashing light and I'll pull over to the right to letcha by.....I have no desire to be tatoo'ed by an Ahrens-Fox.

Then you've gotta find one of those mirror things that LC & Ed annoy each other with![:-,]
