Patrick .... I wish that everyday ! My wife is a pure city girl .... refuses to this day as when we got married to live in any house she can't see a neighbor's house from .... crazy ... but true . She says it's " too SPOOKY ... it makes her have a real scarey feeling " .... LOL --- When I built this house it was in the middle of the boonies ... woods all around ... had to peek through one little area to see a neighbor . All the landowners sold the woods and people built everywhere ! Maryland's like that ... horrible .
RT .... for all that cat food and litter ... HOW DARN HUGE is that cat ?
And guys ... I never had daughters but took custody of my wife's youngest sister back in the early seventies . Well her date said he did'nt like my rules of taking her out and was'nt afraid to tell me .... my opinion a real loud mouthed punk .... he called and told her he was coming at a certain hour to pick her up .... I told her to show him in to the rec room ... I guess he thought he'd put fear in an old man's heart . When he walked in all cocky i was cleaning my remington 1100 auto shotgun . I pulled the bolt back and let her slam shut ... said
" you have something to jump on me about ? " Well ... it was " No Sir ! ... stareing at the shotgun ... those rules are just fine " . That was the last time he came around ... to my pleasure .... LOL . Sometimes it's good to be a redneck - grits eatin - hillbilly . You know the old saying
" Never bring a knife to a gunfight " .

RT, are you sure these are house cats.
Only one rule for our son's when at that "dating" age -- nothing good happens after mid-night, be at our home or hers. Period. Be home (or earlier) at 1:00 AM weekends ......... no need to be out at all on week night's. Yup, DAD with rules -- sure didn't hurt them, very successful teenagers and *** good ACT scores

So many roads, so little time.
Dang, I learn so much about parenting on this forum. Let's see: WWF t-shirt - check. bowie knife - check. Shotgun - check. business card with clock face showing midnight - check. Large cat - hmmm, where's the cat?My dishwasher has caught a disease from Kurts. Just staring at me without any blinking green lights. Just dead - and full of course. 3 mo. old.

88 - Too funny! Happy birthday, just in case I forget tomorrow!
Howdy guys - nice warm day here in St. Louis! Took an hour with lunch and drove across the city to a train store and picked up my John Bull today!
Edit: Doug - hope they can fix it, should be under warranty?
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
cnw1995My dishwasher has caught a disease from Kurts. Just staring at me without any blinking green lights. Just dead - and full of course. 3 mo. old.
I'm glad it caught Kurt's disease for your sake and not the Buckeye disease where the lights blink and smoke pours out. The fire department just ripped it out from under the counter and threw it out the door.
Evening all!
Doug: Sorry about the sick dishwasher. Call the manufacturer first, and make sure the diagnostic fee is paid as well as the parts and installation.
Brutus: Very nice!
Shotgun Hhhmmmm,,,,,All I have are small arms.....I still have a few years before dating age.
Beautiful day here! Spent some time in the yard with the girls, played baseball, soccer, went for a walk, and did some yard work. Ug. Need to do more tomorrrow. Spring clean up is miserable under all these trees. Once it's done it's done.

I seee one of my sneeky raids into Ohizo worked. Crossed the wires on several relays in that dish washer. Works every time. Now I do think Buckeye must have paid Mother Nature off. Still raining.
Another long day. Tomorrow is the same. Physcial in the AM, lunch with County Commissioner that suddenly wants to come to Roseyville and Town Board tomorrow night. Good night all.

See my temporary temporary layout on a card table, lol! Please pardon the dust, had to move my daughter's stuff out of the way so I could get to it.
Tardis is ready and SJ1 is falling asleep - soon, the banilla will all be ours, lol!
Doug, I'll bring the Sonic Screwdriver over, maybe we can monkey with that washer and get it fixed? Rich might be able to get another matter/anti-matter converter, that really souped up the one on the Tardis! Also gotta get Mike, Jim, Charlie, Doug, Don, Laz, Dennis, Chief, Jack, Patrick, RT, Ray and the rest of the guys - on the way!
Charlie - sweet Mikado!

DougM.....you've done it again. Made the mistake of taking a sip of soda when I started to read your post. What a mess, almost choked to death laughing. "What evil lurks in the hearts and minds of fathers with daughters?" BTW, check the inside of the dishwasher for your cat.

IF IT WON'T COME LOOSE BY TAPPING ON IT, DON'T TRY TO FORCE IT. USE A BIGGER HAMMER.
Mornin' Fellas.Well hopefully today will go better than yesterday. Had some issues with hardware yesterday... I've been putting off some non-train related purchases and finally got them done yesterday. Picked up 2 new batteries and a wireless remote for my camera on eBay... OK yes they are train related because I'll be using them to take some pictures . Also picked up the lens with image stabilization (wide angle and zoom) about a month ago. I kept the non-IS lens for back up and also because I will still use them for other photography projects.Susie-Q is taking me out for a light dinner tonight for my b-day so I won't be able to get into the trainroom again. Definitely need to get into it tomorrow so I can measure the space for the town. I'm toying with the idea of building the town similiar to the hillside towns along the Ohio River in Pittsburgh... Not sure how that will look/turn out may have some scrap lumber to start messing around before the weekend. Also need to get that curved stone arch bridge started...Looking forward to York!All this talk of dishwashers... Susie-Q wants a new stove with double oven and I want a new dishwasher, either the two drawer variety or a deep well, tired of the plates getting knocked around when we open/close it... one of these days the china is going to get damaged and you-know-who will be madder than a tasmanian devil backed into a tight spot!
Good morning all,
IIABSDISEI with temps near 70. Happy St. Patrick's Day! I did weights and dribbled the soccer ball around the outdoor track for two laps (about 1.5 miles) at YMCA. The "saucy wench" is also my barber so I had a haircut as well. Watched parts of "Dancing with the Stars". Lucas had some bad news about summer work. He was supposed to have 15 hours a week at the library and he went there yesterday to see if he could get more hours. Instead they told him two other people wanted more hours during the summer and so they had none for him. At least he found out now but I wonder if and when they were going to tell him. Maybe he will find full time work elsewhere. Long day at work but actually accomplished something. Beacon is lit. I had bran muffins on the dining car for breakfast this morning. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,,
Mike C. from Indiana
Good moirning again,
I have old timers this morning. Happy birthday, Brent! Nice pictures of John Bull, Brutus! Kurt, did you say you played soccer last night? Cool.
Keep on training,
Morning all. Suppose to be getting up now. Out the door for physical. At least its a lady DR. Mike C, hope Lucas gets a good summer job. Will remember him. Also, not wearing green so the ladies will pinch me. Everyone have a great day. BTW: cloudy and rainy. Nothing new. I do think it is suppose to clear out sometime today. Later
Top O' da Mornin' to yuz boys. Happy St Patty's Day. Damp and 41 here in the green hills of the Mid-Atlantic region. Everyone's getting new engines but me. Gotta work OT tonight for those who revel too hardy. Maybe a donnybrook or two, or tree.
All this talk o' keepin' the lasses safe from evil suitors wid' ill intentions. Nothing a cement pill box and some razor wire in the front of the dwelling can't fix.
Brutus - MAybe the only 3 rail engine that actually looks at home on o-27....and it's green!
MichRR - Nice engine. Would be better green.
88 ---> (Now go buy that stove...a GREEN stove)
fifedog 88 ---> (Now go buy that stove...a GREEN stove)
88 - Yes.
laz - Ol Mil come in green?
Ole Timer - Always love seeing those McMansions springin' up right beside I-70. Nuts.
Chief - You should avoid being pinched at your age. Those bruises could last for months.
BRENT:
Nice John Bull Brutus, Nice Engine Charlie!!
I have FINALLY joined the ranks of Legacy owners, I got the last one from the LTS at a discount, and so far, it's pretty neat!!
I wore green today, only for my Grandmom. She always loved to dress up in Green for the senior citizens party and went to far as to dye her hair green one year. Took hope the prize for most green worn that year. This ones for you Grandma!!
