I think I'm going to be sick. I knew this was some kind of trick! We're being watched! Because we had something to say. Look out! they're comming to take us away.

i'm clinically insane! as of me in this topic, you must all refer to me as Ralph, the talking ES44DC!

life was slow on the BNSF today. they gave me MORE intermodal and i couldnt whine because my mouth is so puny! so i just went with it. i cant make this too long, because typing with wheels is HARD! my friend Tim, an AC4400CW, broke his keyboard and then tried to eat it. but couldnt cuz he has a tiny mouth too!

i enjoy long rolls on the beach until i get sand caught in my trucks and then fall on my side and get flooded, pulling heavy loads of stuff i have no idea of the contents of, and pranking my crews by stuffing fireworks into my fans so they think i'm on fire!

YAY INSANITY THREAD!

Your friendly neighborhood CNW fan.

I see that this topic has received significantly more replies than any of the freight car topics I have started.

The other day I was walking in a parade dragging a log chain.  A police officer asked me why I was dragging a chain in a parade.  I asked him, "Have you ever tried to push one?"  He WALKED AWAY.

Where is this from? they play it on the radio sometimes...

I don't know where I got it from.  When I was in high school a girl and I made a point of skipping down the hallway yelling it as loud as we could.  It had the desired effect of scaring people into thinking we were nuts.  I still don't know if this was good or bad.  (Me thinks good!) 

You think this is bad? Just wait until inflation kicks in.....

Insanity, from an expert!
 
Syd Barret, Founder, Pink Floyd 1946-2006
 
Jugband Blues
(Barrett) 2:59

It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here
And I'm much obliged to you for making it clear that I'm not here.
And I never knew the moon could be so big
And I never knew the moon could be so blue
And I'm grateful that you threw away my old shoes
And brought me here instead dressed in red
And I'm wondering who could be writing this song.

I don't care if the sun don't shine
And I don't care if nothing is mine
And I don't care if I'm nervous with you
I'll do my loving in the winter.

And the sea isn't green
And I love the Queen
And what exactly is a dream
And what exactly is a joke.

   Have fun with your trains

I have a sad story to tell you...it may hurt your feelings a bit. Last night when I walked into my bathroom, I stepped in a big pile of SHHHHHHHHHHAAVING CREAM! Be nice and clean...shave every day and you'll always look keen.

It is a song from the 1950s or 1960s. I do not remember who sang it.



The song is called, funnily enough, They're coming to take me away Ha - Haaa!. It's from 1966 by a band called Napolean XIV. It was their only hit.
Generally a lurker by nature

Be Alert
The world needs more lerts.
