When finally the last lady steps up to hit the ball, she hacks it 10 feet; she goes over and hacks it another 10 feet, then another 10 feet....She looks up at the men who are watching and says apologetically. "I guess all those f***ing lessons I took this winter didn't help." One of the men immediately replied: "Well, you know...that's your problem. You should have taken golf lessons instead." [:I] [:I] A young wife, her boorish husband and a young good looking sailor were shipwrecked on an island. One morning, the sailor climbed a tall coconut tree and yelled, "Stop making love down there!" "What's the matter with you?" the husband said when the sailor climbed down. '"We weren't making love." "Sorry," said the sailor, "From up there it looked like you were." Every morning thereafter, the sailor scaled the same tree and yelled the same thing. Finally the husband decided to climb the tree and see for himself. With great difficulty, he made his way to the top. The husband says to himself, "By golly he's right! It DOES look like they're making love down there!" [:I] [:I] A professor is sent to darkest Africa to live with a primitive tribe. He spends years with them, teaching them reading, writing, math, and science. One day the wife of the tribe's chief gives birth to a white child. The members of the tribe are shocked, and the chief pulls the professor aside and says, "Look here! You're the only white man we've ever seen and this woman gave birth to a white child. It doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened!" The professor replied, "Chief, you're mistaken. What you have here is a natural occurrence.. what we in the civilized world call an albino! Look at that field over there. All of the sheep are white except for one black one. Nature does this on occasion." The chief was silent for a moment, then said, "Tell you what. You don't say anything more about the sheep and I won't say anything more about the baby."

Siberianmo Anonymous Member sinceApril 2003 305,205 posts Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, May 7, 2006 6:34 AM Good morning everyone! I decided not to kill my already ailing back by doing another all-night painting session, and then sleep on the couch out there. Yes Ted, our temporary home is just a few miles from our horse, but unless we get this place sold soon, we may be looking at selling the horse! In other news, our jerko downstairs neighbors have posted "for sale" literature in the downstairs vestibule, which is good and bad, as their unit is essentially the same as ours. Wouldn't you know that the jerkos chose to fire-up their stereo when we had an interested couple looking at our place yesterday? Is it Kosher to discuss a mob hit on a Sunday? As for our "new" new home, here's a picture of good ol' lot 727 as of yesterday Anyhow ... I dug-up a few pix I thought might interest ya'll, and here they are: Deluth, Missabe & Iron Range class E-4 2-10-4 703 heads onto the turntable at Proctor, Minnesota, to be serviced for its next turn, which may see it taking loaded ore jimmies down the hill to the docks at Duluth, or taking empties back to the pits. The potent Texas began life in 1937 as Bessemer & Lake Erie 624 and came to the Missabe in 1951, bumped by early diesels. Philip A. Weibler Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range’s “Three Deuces,” M-3 2-8-8-4 222, sits in strong sidelight while being serviced at Two Harbors, Minnesota, on a chilly evening in December 1959. The big Baldwin was built in 1941, but it wasn’t sold for scrap until 1962. Philip A. Weibler Western Pacific’s Exposition Flyer threads through the magnificent Feather River Canyon two miles west of Pulga in the summer of 1948. An early streamlined Vista-Dome coach is the third car behind WP 4-8-2 179, a refugee from the Florida East Coast. The FEC was one of the few railroads to default on an Equipment Trust obligation, resulting is some handsome light Alco 4-8-2s being sold to the WP – the 179 had been FEC 414 – and to the Cotton Belt to satisfy the debt. Allen Krieg Four different car types visit Macy Street Yard on February 2, 1950, headquarters of the Northern District about a mile east of L.A. Union Passenger Terminal. From left: No. 1236 was a “long Beach Twelve,” built by Pullman in 1921 for that route, somewhat less powerful then the San Bernardino cars. Behemoth No. 499 was a “Blimp Combo,” a combination passenger/express/baggage motor that cam in the large lot from SP’s interurban Electric after that Bay Area operation was abandoned in 1941. Private car No. 1299, the Commodore, operated in regular service only in the summer. At far right is one of the 1100 class Pasadena motors built in 1924 by Standard Steel Car. These were slower versions (600 volt only) of the 1200s, with double doors to accommodate near-town commuter lines. Fred Matthews Chicago Transit Authority electric locomotives S-104 and S-105 on the Skokie Branch in April 1978. The locomotives were built in 1920 by Baldwin-Westinghouse for the Northwestern Elevated, a predecessor of the Chicago Rapid Transit, which eventually became the CTA. They were purchased to take over freight service on trackage once shared with the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad. The two were unique in that they were built with narrow car bodies so they would clear elevated platforms while operating through stations not fitted with gauntlets necessary to clear freight cars. Each locomotive was equipped for multiple unit control and propulsion power pick up with over-running trolley shoes, reversible trolley pole, and a pantograph. Power on this portion of the line was being picked up from third rail by trolley shoes. The locomotives were taken out on this day on a last farewell trip before being sent to Toledo Edison in Ohio. Lou Gerard Edit Anonymous Member sinceApril 2003 305,205 posts Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, May 6, 2006 8:22 PM I have some free time, so decided to spend it here catching the latest "gooder stuff." Tom, I'm still comatose from the great steak and potato extrvaganza. I'll imbibe with a short Crown and water, if you please. Well, it's been a fine Encore day with some familiar Roads and some I'm barely acquainted with. For some reason the folks in the southwestern States, e.g. Oklahoma and Texas had an affection for the old M.K. & T. I believe it was, in part, due to their friendly service and perhaps the unorthodox loco rosters and rolling stock. I'm not really sure. I do recall seeing several of Katy's passenger trains both in Kcity, MO and Tulsa, OK. Being an impressionable kid, I opted for Frisco and Santa Fe's sleek "state of the art" equipment. I was far too young to remember when Mom and Dad took my sister an me on the Katy to Pawnee, OK for a relative's funeral. The only vivid memory was the revolting smell of fresh silage at the Pawnee depot. I kept telling Mom that "it hurts my nose." The L & N is a stranger to me and more's the pity. My what a fresh idea for a Road's livery, very handsome indeed. Thanks to Tom, Lars and Mike for the fine URL's, Fallen Flags and Nostalgia #13 respectively.[tup] By golly, that long haul L & N tender is a real battleship, isn't it? West Coast S, so the "S" connection paid off with an invite to a meet up at the Orange Empire Railway Museum, eh? How I envy you with the "one on one" encounter of the Pacific Electric "Blimp" car. They were a favorite of mine and Gadfrey were they huge? Any Angeleno motorist must have felt a little in awe of those giants trundling down the city's streets.[:O] Of course, I'm a little familiar with the Birneys, single and double truck "Safety Cars." The single truck version was anything but a 'Safety Car' with their jolting and jerking undulations snaking down the narrow neighborhood avenues. More than once, I ended up on my keaster as a little shaver still unable to reach the standee's straps. I recall, that I never saw a "dinky" negotiate a "grand union" inersection. I wonder if their wheelbase wasn't sufficient to negotiate the track layout? On the other hand, I really don't envy you a move to Tarantula country in the middle of the Mojave. Still, there is plenty of U.P., B.N.S.F., action visible for miles in all directions.[:D] Mike, the pix of the L & N Louisville Station is a marvel of fine "N" gauge scratch building. I have trouble with HO.[:I] Today was a bonanza for rail viewing on the tube. I "timed" recorded Trains Unlimited (building the C. P. thru the Canadian Rockies), Trouble on the Rails (car/train collisions at poorly marked R.R. Xings), High Speed Trains (tracing the development of the Bullets, ICE, TLV, and magnetic levitation trains). The Travel Channel offered coverage of the "high end" excursion runs avilable in the States but it just isn't my thing.[tdn] Nothing against oppulence, don't misunderstand; I just need to be going someplace for a pragmatic reason. I trust someone will apprise me if I have made any grevious omissions. Until then, allow me to take my leave in a mannerly fashion. Oh yes, Lars good choice of the Alaskan Rwy. Encore. I could feel the cool zephyrs off Mt. McKinley and the Tundra amidst this 83 F. Fl. temps, thanks. Boris, see if we can get it right this time for my parting round, okay? BOING By the "eternal," Boris, its the bar today- -M.I.T. tomorrow.[swg] Happy rails all.

LOUISVILLE STATION model railroad http://www.railimages.com/gallery/pauldowns/aaa 295 streamlined in 1940 for the L&N's segment of the South Wind. Painted Tuscan red, modified with conventional twin cylinders, a shroud, and an oversize tender that held 27½ tons of special high-grade coal and 20,000 gallons of water. Supposed to have run 490 miles non-stop. Sometimes arrived in Louisville with an empty tender, low steam pressure, and barely enough coal to make it to the roundhouse. http://www.koyote.com/users/whsulliv/eubank013med.jpg HUMMINGBIRD first post-World War II streamlined passenger train, five coaches, a lounge, and a dining car.

Tom, I have "eyes" for that Black Angus Tenderloin w/mushrooms, onions and the "Our" Place world famous baked, stuffed Idao Potato, thanks. As will be evident from this post, I'm still locked in to Friday's posts. This T.G.I.F. turned into a O.G.I.M. (Oh Gadfrey it's Monday). "I can't get a break I tell ya...nobody'll gimme a break" (James Cagney, cinema, circa 1930's). Okay, working my way from most recent to earlier posts let me begin by saying: HELP!!! Seriously, right you are Tom, I will try sending our latest visitor Eric a word of encouragement after this cyber session.[tup] Additionally, I met and have invited a very interesting senior citizen to join the frey. Originally from the Buffalo, N.Y. area, this gentleman has wide experience in both prototypical railroading and HO modeling as well. I hope my efforts are sucessful. Oh, incidentally Pete and Nick, he is first generation born in America. His parents hail from the U.K., near London if memory serves. How is that for a worthy prospect?[^] Nice to see Fergie again and a pleasant "blast from the past" from over yonder. What no "Newfee" jokes? Tom, the Canadian National Encore certainly had the "residual" effect of rekindling old friendships, no? Barndad Doug, "Growing up Around Steam...." was pure pleasure for me and many others as so many favorable post will attest to, thanks.[tup] X a google. I could never again do what you are now in the midst of accomplishing: another move. Will you be closer to your equestrian buddy along with your ovine friends? Any rate, best of luck on a clean, quick real estate transaction. Rob, the repowering of the Alco Road Switchers raised a lot of interest among the more technically involved members and I can better understand how woefully ignorant I am on many aspects of "the real thing." It is all kind'a embarraskin' (Popeye, circa 20th century). Your very inculsive post made my eternal quest for "getting abreast" (no pun intended) with the "flow," a lot easier for moi, thanks.[tup] Wow, you "said it all" when you mentioned getting away from the Tampa scenario, just can't wait.[^] What was that you said? The Ice Hotel has melted? Gadfey Daniel, that was to be the highlight of the "Rendesvous" ...for Eskomos maybe. No thanks, I left my snow shovel back in OK wrapped in a big yellow bow for the neighbors. Pete, I hope the weekend "run out" goes well. It is heartening to know that yet another Pensy GG-1 addict dwells amongst us. LOL I was fortunate to live a "stones throw" form the Pensy mainline (N.E. Corridor) while living in MD. At that time (1961 - 1981) just about all motive power was the venerable GG-1, some still wore pin stripes. I don't recall any surviving tuscan red livery though. However, I could be mistaken. Al, yes the South Wind was another example of "how low can you go" in the pitiable decline of our nation's proudest tradition of Varnish. As mentioned before, I could view the transition on almost a daily basis, "not a pretty sight." Of course you know what will happen during your trip to the B-I-Law's, don't you? Momma will find something you need (doesn't matter what) in one of the suit cases..."see, I told you so." LOL I probably have missed BK but I would like tp repeat my best wishes for a blissful wedding and a lifetime of mutual fullfilment. I can speak from experience that it wise to treat every day as if it were the last. All too soon, these days grow short, so hold onto them in peace. Mike, your adherence to the URL concept is totally sensible and time saving both on the page and to parties who may not be particularly consumed by the subject to hand...smart! Also, anyone may go into as much, or as little depth as he may choose, absolutely effecient, hear, hear.[^] I've taken a lot away from those fine posts, thanks. Lars, good point on the "follow ups" for prospective "regulars." The personal touch is always a "winnAH." Mets are lookin' great so far... the Rays are lookin' ...well grate.[V] Hopefully, our next Rendesvous will see you joining the crew where ever that may be.[tup] Sorry we will miss meeting you this time around. Cm3, "old, rare and obscure" gets it every time, thanks.[^] If you ever trip over a fairly "obscure" line called the Midland Valley, maybe you could "send it home" for me? I remember the line as a way freight/switching operation during the 1950's in Tulsa, OK. I probably wouldn't have noticed but for the U.S.R.A. Mikado doing the chores. A rather ignominious fate for a once proud road engine (ex-Frisco iirc). Well, Tom and fellow cohorts, I'm gaining but still a fur piece to go yet. It will happen, just wish I could say when.[V] Boris, will you please stop fiddling with that lanyard 'til I give you the cue? Okay, "cue!!" Gadrey, he tore the felt on the pool table![:(!] D--ned [alien]!!!!!

Good nostalgia there with the Pennsy "stuff" - good job! [tup] Yeah- David Wright is "the man of the hour!" Made a nice catch also . . . Have the game on the radio, as I'm in 'n out today - much to do on my "list." <groan> As I type this, Mets are up by 3 . . . .
