Fifedog ... yea they've got dozens upon dozens of those overpriced huge mansions built here they can't sell . What burns me is now the ones who overbought are getting severly reduced deals on payments for them . NOT FAIR .... we who invested wisely are going to pay through higher taxes for years to pay for them ! Don't feel lonely on not getting a new engine .... I've been bidding like crazy and watching folks pay overblown prices for engines everyday .... amazes me ... of course I would'nt want their plastic bill ... LOL . My wife works for citicorp and says all they keep doing is running them up = credit cards = and redoing their accounts to try to pay mega huge bills . You would'nt believe what some pay every month on them !
Ole Timer - No. I believe it. And by the time they finish widening 70 thru Frederick, gonna be time to widen it again...
Back from Dr. Fife, got more than pinched at my physical. Well, at least it was a female Dr. I think all Irish named O'Hare should be bannished. I think they were the worthless clan that could not make it.

CHIEF!
How the heck did you do that? You must have control over Gremlins like so many other things!
Have a Happy PATRICK day !

May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of His Hand

njalb1 - You do have a way with pictures. I echo laz57 KEEP UM COMIN.
Chief - Can I assume the change in title of Pot #5 "is a GRITS and Sweet Ice Tea Free Zone" means there is no charge for these items? Or maybe the Yanks have taken over.
only took one of you slow rebs 2 days to see it and it means the yanks have taken over and it means no Grits or Sweet Ice tea
Thanks for the s fellas.Buckeye - I'm hoping we win the NIT... wasn't thinking we would get into the Big Dance, and kinda glad we didn't. IMHO we really need a couple big inside guys before we can get in...Fife and OleTimer - What gauls me is they build these HUGE homes right up on the highway and then complain about the noise and demand noise barriers (unsightly concrete walls) be built to reduce the noise... umm... HELLO IT IS CALLED A HIGHWAY!!!!!!!! That's like building your house next to a railroad and complaining about trains passing by... ummm.... oh yeah my wife did that

Don't count on the chief as I hear thru the grape line he keeps sneaking into yank territory not to spy but to become yankeeized You did notice he lives in NORTH CAROLINA didn't you?
got to keep them wondering guys
Just 'cause we live here don't mean we've been assimilated -- I'm just an overt Yankee SPY!!!
Just think, in the next Civil War, the SOuth will WIN -- Only because us YANKEES are here!!!

Mike: Yup Soccer! 4-yo wants to play soccer with the Twp. league again this year. Last year she didn't want to go onto the field.
Did some painting today on the Grainery, and yardwork. Played basketball with the girls, and played in the sandbox. We were searching for burried treasure! Yaaarr!

Lordy, Lordy the Stars and Bars are in trouble again. General Lee where are you when we need you?
Happy St, Paddy's Day to all and Happy Birthday Brent.
Had a pretty good day at work, although we have had lots of mischief. Nothing very serious but still too many discipline situations.
Made homemade pot pie for dinner on Sunday. Not as good as my Mom's but still pretty fair for a first effort. Had left overs for dinner. Tomorrow is a late night. Job Fair so I will be busy interviewing new teacher candidates from about 4:00 until 7:30 or so.
Friday night is a PTA event, Saturday is birthday dinner/celebration for Mom and BIL so it will be a busy weekend. Next weekend is a faculty bus trip to NYC, should be fun.
Last Saturday, just by accident I found a new train shop in Smithsburg, MD, J & B Trains. Smithsburg is just a little bit north of I-70 near Hagerstown. We were looking for a place to get some lunch. We found great little restaurant, on week days it is a diner that closes at about 2:00 PM, and then on weekends, they re-open about 4:00 pm and it is rib joint. Didn't go back to get any ribs but might have to go back there and check them out. Nice train shop, pretty good variety and owner was very personable.
Well, I am going to close for now.
Have a great day.

Good evening
Wow what a great day,so many windbags in the south the southern breeze took us to the low 70s. I even went out for my walk today. I think that it was so nice I could have seen a box of instant grits and not flinched.
Patrick something in my breakfast was green but I can't remember if it was the eggs or the bacon :).
Maybe when Brutus gets here with the thingy we can go back and do today over. Banilla is ready so come on in....S.J.

Think he has chest pains now, wait unitl I get through with him. And the one in Florida is not too far way either. The long arm of the REB army can reach him too. Patrick, don't worry, something will get their "goat" in a few months. Yankee skalawags. Those that moved South are still CARPETBAGGERS. Only thing is, the Princess is becoming a Southern Bell and not a Yank. Look again big mouths. Bob Keller, I'm calling Bergie on you.
Town Board is over and I'm heading home.
Brutus, fire her up! Happy Birthday Brent! Happy St. Patrick's Day Y'All! Brutus and Charlie, nice looking trains, look forward to more come SPF. Regarding protecting our daughters, I think we worry because we know how we thought and what we did when we were that age....revenge.
Wife had told me over the phone that she was going to take the kids to the store so she could buy the son a new pair of sneakers. When I got home, they had gone and bought all these clothes and accessories for the cruise....but honey, I have to save money for York....She don't care
We had the new guy do two cases under our supervision today. He did fine, but will need to get used to the routines. I am looking forward to this guy taking some call.
Brent, from what I know about image stabilized lenses, you are better off with regular lenses, or having IS turned off when using a tripod. When hand holding, the IS is much better. I plan on keeping all my lenses.
God Bless,Dennis

RT -
You were right, it took them days to notice! You ROCK man!
Rich, too funny! Watch your daughter
2 Add-on cars for the JB arrived today. Sir James 1 and Charlie say I should run them and not save them to sell "someday" - I think I shall do so!
Brent! Happy Brent Day! Sounds like you got some good stuff, hope that city comes along nicely!
Tardis is ready - we can go back if you want! I did not wear any green today, but couldn't get any of the ladies at work to pinch me! Darn, well, it seemed like a good plan a the time
RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.
lionroar88Fife and OleTimer - What gauls me is they build these HUGE homes right up on the highway and then complain about the noise and demand noise barriers (unsightly concrete walls) be built to reduce the noise... umm... HELLO IT IS CALLED A HIGHWAY!!!!!!!! That's like building your house next to a railroad and complaining about trains passing by... ummm.... oh yeah my wife did that
Brent....Did you know that now if you modify a highway such that it can carry more traffic and relieve congestion, the homeowners use this to get noise barriers. In other words, if you change out the shoulder to a buses only lane, the existing lanes can carry more traffic and that equals noise walls.
