Good Morning CTTFans!

It's 42F right now heading towards 70's with a chance of Thunder Storms coming in so maybe rain, maybe lightning which could spark more fires.   Looks to be one of those years again...

Mornin' Guys,

Quick run through, coffee in hand, as i escort the Princess to college.  We did laps around the high school last night to get her used to the manual tranny in the Pulsar.

Doug - Motor Vehicle Accident Thumbs Up

MikeC - the "arena" where the F1 race is about an hour North of me.  Mostly on the Palasades, where the vistas of Manhattan will provide a scenic backdrop to the festivities.  If I can get up there with mass transit, I will certainly make my best effort.  After all, what self respecting American of Italian decent wouldn't pull for FERRARI?

Jeff - good news indeed!  Angel

Dennis - yes, the Philly guys have had their share.  BTW, I have an article about your guys in HFD, if you could e-mail me your mailing address, I'll send it along.

As many of you, had left overs from Easter dinner, which was wonderful...again! Same on tap tonight as well.  No problems with that!!

OK, I'm off.  Work from1 to 6, so I'll try to check in then.

I am the monster in your head...And I thought you'd learn by now, It seems you haven't yet.

Morning.  Pretty day but 30 mph winds later.  Red flag day.  Remember fly with pilot buddy in L19 down east on days like today looking for fires.  Bumpy ride but fun.  Next Yankee cold coming. Angry  Why you Yanks can't keep your misery to your selves. Bang Head

Had good stay at lake house.  Worked on yard the whole time though.

Headed east to the farm and check cameras.  Friend Fred was going [set it up for him] and now he has to run the "school bus" [pick up Granddaughters at two different schools].   Sent me message that he was head of household and put his foot down.  What time leaving.  Short message right after that.  Debbie [his wife] has to work late so cancel my trip. Laugh Laugh  Now we know who the boss is. Bow

Calling the lady who has my camera.  Where are my photos?

Sounds like Bunny is the new boss in Fifedom. Thumbs Up

Later.

Store bought tomatoes are totally useless and tasteless. Yet granny buy's them for her salad cause they "look colorful".

Store bought tomatoes. UGH! Look good, firm, pack well, bounce like tennis balls, taste like cardboard.

 

Good morning. It's 67° and partly cloudy. The high will be 85° and there's a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms.

I don't know what was going on last night but I was quite dizzy for a while not to mention disoriented. I feel OK now. I have no idea about what I'm going to do today. Maybe I'll paint the trucks on the GP9 Frankenlocos as a start.

Good Morning

Got a phonecall from friend's wife..he is doing a lot better this morning..she is up there and we are going up there this afternoon!! Great news there!

We sent condolences to the musician friend's family...the children are going to be looked after by their one aunt there....both play as well so the studio he set up is probably going to go with them to the new house..aunt thinks it should stay with them...still don't have a clue as to what happened with him though...

Today, besides visiting I'll be working on my layout and hopefully get some of it done...hah! Like that is going to happen!!Laugh

Have a great day!!!Big Smile

Jeff.........that was most encouraging news about your Mom. Thumbs Up Prayers continue. Angel If SJ were in charge of the hospital kitchen, he would have had the Chief fly in some fresh tomatoes for her sandwhich.  Hang in there!  You KNOW how he hates the storebought ones that have the consistency and taste of a major league baseball.

Blownout......[angel] for the friend you lost, and his family too.  I hope the other one has turned the corner on his issues..

RaySP.......you must be relieved that your wifey's escapade was short, benign and also provided a postitive heart exan to boot. Angel

Fife.......you are blessed. Thumbs Up  Re your need for a larger yatchet to accomodate the growing crew (and us).....something between 45 and 50 feet would be appropriate. Smile, Wink & Grin  In the short run, the little one can supervise.

RT.......re my avatar with Maximus wearing the bunny ears, I have to drop a dime on my wife, it was all her idea. Surprise  This type of activity does have a canine training value.  The dog must trust the owners and tolerate what is asked.  That includes food refusal until the owner provides it, standing quietly for exam during a vet visit, or ignoring other nearby dogs going ballistic toward him, in tight quarters or outside on the street..  Maximus was the only dog in training class last month who wore his St. Patrick's day outfit the entire training class of a dozen "dressed up" dogs and won the "prize" of a free training lesson.

Later, gang.

Mornin' Fellas

A bit frosty this AM in MD. Supposed to get to 63 today. 30% chance of rain tomorrow... I need to get the fertilizer on the yard so I need it to rain 2 - 3 days after... I would like to get it down this weekend, we'll see. I really don't want to have to water the lawn if I don't have to.

Went to Pittsburgh for Easter weekend. Had a good time. Christina seemed to enjoy herself (she was the center of attention for most of the time).

Was able to get down to the trainroom yesterday and get some more work done on the mountains. I started a - Part II thread. The more I look at them I am inclined to do some modification work on the ceiling tiles above the upper tunnel portal. Thinking of cutting the left side at a shallow angle, just seems a bit to square, and possibly cut the left approach to the upper tunnel portal back some - maybe make the step effect a bit more dramatic? I hope to get to work on the left upper tunnel portal area tonight and get some more work done on the mountain base as well. Have to review my York list and possibly modify it some... Hard to believe it is next week!!

Morning All:

As some of you may have heard we have a horrible wild fire burning in the Long Island Pine Barrens.

Before I left work yesterday some of the horse stables put out alerts for anyone with trailers to help them move their livestock, which was heard.

A few homes have been lost already, we send our thoughts and prayers out to all the firefighters, most of whom are volunteers.

Hello all

A balmy 43 degrees right now on the hill. And no, Jack, I don't wear long underwear. Never cared for the stuff. Just pull on the Carhartt's if it starts to get really bad.

Jeffrey - good to hear you mom is doing better. SJ would be proud of her lunch choice.

Blownout - sorry to hear about your losses and continued prayers for your friend.

SPRay - glad to hear your wife is on the mend and it was nothing serious.

Kev - you might try HobbyTownUSA on the connector. I heard it was similar to some of the RC hookups. I had a brief glance the last time I was at the store in my area, but I was pressed for time and they have quite a bunch to look thru. Will keep checking the surplus at my local electronic supply store in the meantime.

OK, now for day two of my stint on the USS Iowa:

Back to the ship around 8AM. Coffee and morning briefing and assignments. Quite a few volunteers there on Saturday. Remember those annoying blocked off passageways I was referring to yesterday? Well, Luke and I's job was to remove those. Chase down our tools stored in the bow and return some to the crew working in the galley removing the scullery equipment and off we go. We were working w/ another volunteer for a few hours as well. The passageway combings were plated over w/ sheetmetal for the dehumidification zones. First we had to strip off the caulking and then grind off the spot welds. This was a two man operation for sure since you needed one person to hold the metal as it came loose and to provide a fire watch w/ an extinguisher on the other side. This of course involved more of the floating 3-dimensional crossword puzzle as you had to go up and over and around to find the other side of the hatchway. When we finally got these removed we had a clear run on the main deck thru to aft, and there was much rejoicing. We did the same w/ a few passageways up on the 01 level. Here we were in "officer's country" and a lowly E-4 like myself felt a bit out of place. We did get to see the bridge and armored conning tower though. We weren't allowed to take any pictures of the interior of the ship, but here is an exterior shot of the bridge from the port side:

The armored conning tower is a pretty small place and where the ship was steered from. Unlike many other ships even the bridge was fairly confined. Most of the important areas are within the armored citadel protecting the turrets, magazines, and machinery.  I also got to see one of the primary radio rooms and talk to a volunteer who was former Navy radio operator. For an old electronics nut like me I was in Heaven!  Here's my buddy Luke at the stern on one of our forays to find tools:

In the afternoon we started working on a plated over hatch thru the 3rd deck into the citadel above the propulsion spaces. 6" armor here, good thing the plating we had to remove wasn't nearly this thickSurprise We later got a tour of the forward distillation and emergency generator space. One of the crew working for the Pacific Battleship Center was assigned to the ship in the 80's and this was his duty station. At one point we were standing on top of the tank decks pretty much at the lowest portion of the ship. We were looking at the two six cylinder diesels that provided emergency power. They were actually ALCO switcher units (I, of course, approved:). Alco had hoped to sell a bunch to the Navy, but in the end they only provided sets for two of the ships. While we were in this space the tanker in the background in the next photo steamed passed us on the way to the dock. Whoah!! I guess we really are below water...

So far the ship only has ship to shore power. No plumbing hookups. For  a couple months they had no power either and anything below decks had to be done w/ generator lighting or flashlights. For facilties we had portable toilets on the dock. I found this particularly amusing as at long last I was able live out Otis Redding's lyrics:

"I'm just sitting on the dock of the bay, wastin' time..."

Big congratulations, Fifedog!  Prayers and hope all are well!

Prayers for sick loved ones and friends.  Also praying for your friend, Blownout.

Back to work today - yeah, very glad to have the family back home and everyone doing pretty well.  Looking forward to the York Trip.  John, sorry you won't make it on Friday - hope to see you at the show though, you were my sponsor to TCA a few years ago!

We had a warm day today, but now it will get colder and highs in the 60s etc.  I need to mow the lawn again, but didn't feel like doing it on Easter like my neighbors.  That just doesn't seem right to me.

TARDIS is ready, so let's get a move on guys!

RIP Chewy - best dog I ever had.

Time to call it a night. I painted the trucks of my H24-66 this morning and liked the effect so much I did the same with my two SDP40F's. Now if you look at the two locos you'll see they're different in several very important aspects. The most obvious is the trucks.

505A has Flexicoil C2L C-C trucks.


505B has A1A-A1A Blomberg trucks.


Good night.

Good evening everyone.  Tired, been a long day, but at least I am off call.  Thanks guys for the kind thoughts.  It does get to you a bit.  I just hate how casual so many people are towards life...it is a precious thing that goes all too quickly.

Congratulations Fifepop!  I am sure she is a darling.  Now, I know you won't spoil her too much now, yeah right!  I can imagine you at your son's cleaning a weapon when her date comes to pick her up in about sixteen years.

Blown Cylinder, sorry for the loss.  Will pray for peace and comfort for family and friends.

Rich, some of the guys sent me messages about the Philly fire.  Tough thing.  They are no strangers to LODDS, we went to the funeral services when they lost six brothers back a bunch of years ago.  It was great to see all the guys from the IAFF who had also been in Hackensack when we lost some guys, but it is sad to have such occasions to meet.

Well, I have a couple of big cases in the morning.  Hope to check in after.  May God bless Y'all!

Ohayō,

I have a few minutes to post during my lunch break.  I went to renew my Japanese Compensatory Insurance this morning but I found out this car is not due until next year.  It is required every two years and it is pretty expensive; around $500 for his car.  This is a requirement here and is in addition to regular insurance and the road tax (annual).  The road tax is due this month and will probably cost around $200.  The weather is fantastic and the older boy’s baseball team I am coaching has its first practice tonight.  It’s Spring Break week here so I already know about three kids will not be there tonight as their families are on vacation. 

Blownout – I’m sorry about your recent losses.

AF Ray and Jack – Exactly, I’m not worried about the 0-3 start.  The Yankees are beating the O’s right now.  I believe the Sox will still be competitive – even though I hope they aren’t. 

Kev – Nathaniel is in my prayers. 

Jeffrey – I’m glad to hear that about your mother.

RT – The last I saw Wallyworld was taking a hiatus from the forum in protest to what he believed was a lack of tinplate coverage in CTT. 

Sayonara,

Joe

Good evening all,

It is still mild in SE Indiana but that will change overnight.  Anjdevil2, that is an idea.  NJ would be closer than Houston although I hold out hope someday it would be back at IMS.  If you do get a chance to go, do so.  While the 500 is still dearest to me, there is nothing quite like the sights and sounds of F-1.

Keep on training,.

Joe, Jack , & John

Thanks, Nathaniel has never tried to say words or did baby talk. They say that the baby garble is good because they are learning to use the things they need to talk. He never did any of that. His sister talks enough for a few people. Maybe that is why he does not try.

 

Kev – Is your grandson communicating (speaking baby language) at all? Our 21-month-old son only says a handful of clear English words, but he has some great conversations in baby speak. We understand this to be an acceptable development of speech. Our older two kids were not as chatty as this one and they both speak well now – every child is different. I’ll pray for him.

KEV......

my first granddaughter was pretty much the same way when passing just short of two years of age, quiet as a church mouse, much to the consternation of the entire family. Then somebody flipped a switch and the floodgates opened. Angel

Kev, I would not worry about your Grandson and the speech issue. My son was the same way. We had him to early Intervention and he would actually work the therapist over. She would bring out toy farm animals, ask him what they were and he would imitate the sounds they made. He turned out fine.

Spent the day fighting with IT again, Humm

Later guys, Right now I feel like shooting any computer in site.

Oh well not a lot going on tonight, hope to get some screws to mount track to shelf layout tomorrow, then work on the layout starting next week when I'm off for 9 days. Big Smile

Jack Wife just came down and said you where just so wrong for putting those ears on the doberman. (laughing as she is saying it)
