Do you think that means that we all need to get lives? [;)]

that is alot ,maybe your right about all being off or out of school? I'm on leave so gotta get some info .
With everyone online at once would be kinda neat to have like a chat where everyone could go in at once and talk about different issue of railroding and get a better knowledge of the people that post or reply to post.
just a idea thrown in the wind. i have alot of respect for you guys and for me would be nice to know alot of you a little better , instead of just by post and names[:)]
not trying to sound weird just ,really getting into this and from where i live it's nice to talk to others about the hobby( not anyone that i know that is in it here.

Do remember, there was a huge ice storm going on yesterday. The kids here are out today, as well as surrounding counties. One county in particular has been out all but one day this week.

I'm not going to school today, for I have no classes that I need to go to. Why waste gas?

Work...... I seem to remember what that is...... Hmmmmm! Man I love retirement! I usually go online after I get up and have breakfast (that is usually around 10:30 or so). I stay logged in for the rest of the day even if I am not at the computer. The number are the highest today that I seen in some time. Yea for storms that let others do the same. [:D]

loathar, congrats on the change in color and added star. I will be there in 6 more posts!
