HoopleSawyer: You may not be an idiot, but just because you 5'11'' and 188 doesn't mean your invincible. At 5'7'' and 150 I can take down my friend Victor who is 5'11'' and 217... And he's a noseguard. Looks like we share school colors, my school is green and gold. So is the highschool... Good thing the pack is one of my favorite teams.

I know Mark, I was just joking around. And you have to admit, it does make someone not want to mess with you though.
I thought you were a cowboys fan (Packers and Cowboys have met quite a few times in the playoffs).
der, checking out that video clip now. (EDIT: good work )

Afternoon everbody, What’s it’s about time we got around to Pie. I’ll have pie, pie, beans and pie. And some more PIE! And the Ham, pie, pie and pie. What kind? Oh the left side of the pie case will do just fine.
Galaxy- After picking myself up off the floor from laughing. I sobered up and realized you have quoted MANY a conversation around here. Usually they are in a different order such as
Starts with 5 Then Me saying :what” then 6, then me saying “what” then her saying 9, 4. Me again ”what”. Then 3, 7, 1. And this all happens in 2.
Ray- We have something that goes 0-200 in less than three seconds. The wife’s blood pressure. After I say “And…. You want me to do…what?” POW! 200!
Robby -Nice Job!
I’ll go set with the others and see what’s going on with PIE

After long and careful thought, they have convinced me. I have come to the conclusion that they are right. The aliens did it.
Being the idiot I am, i forgot to say Robby, I've got about 10 billion miles to go bewfore i catch up to your weathering!!!!
Evening everyone
Looks like Jeffrey might be able to start an old fashion "gas war" with all the pumps that has for the station. Don't forget your friends and save some gas for them!
Der.. Your clips of your layout are great. Can't wait until I can aquire more "property" so I can expand.
Cederstrand>>> My first loco was a docksider in "N". It still runs and its over 30 years old and a Bachman to boot!
Zoe Will you please get me a large slice of PIE and a RBF. Thank you.
I'll be at the corner window watching for the late freight.

You guys are right, I'm going to have to lay a lot of track for all the engines that I'm going to be buying up, but oh well. Well, today was a great day for me, I busted my tail working, did five brake jobs, two tune ups, and replaced the alternator and a BMW (that was a...a...something I can't say on here). Well, looks like my search is going to soon start for finding engines (I know, I probably shouldn't start looking for engines when I don't even have a building yet, but I don't care!), and maybe finding a WHOLE lot more covered hoppers (preferably CSX, or the forming companies that made CSX (Family Lines, SCL, Chessie, ConRail, ect).
Zoe, I'll have a RBF and a order of cheese fries, please.

You were grouchy about pie?
Well, I don't want to feel left out, so I'll take a piece of apple PIE!!! Sadly, my geometry exam today didn't involve pi(e).

Calm down and have a piece of pie. you'll feel better!!
I think I'll have a piece of pie now myself. but I'll have to go with a slice of chocolate PIE!

Oh well I'll finish my pie and get back to sorting Art and Poetry. HELP I"M IN PERGATORY! THE PILE KEEPS GETTING HIGHER.....!!!!!!! Opps, that's the pile I already sorted.
Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO
We'll get there sooner or later!
Since we are all having pie, I'll take a slice of Lemon Meraunge and Apple pie Ala mode.
Luke, you should get 3.14159 26535 89793 23846 26433 83279 50288 41971 69399 37510 pieces of pie. Hopefully you'll feel better.
Looks like the F45 I had pre-ordered will be here soon. Standard hobby isn't showing anything about pre-order, back-order, or reservations.
Vincent
Wants: 1. high-quality, sound equipped, SD40-2s, C636s, C30-7s, and F-units in BN. As for ones that don't cost an arm and a leg, that's out of the question....
2. An end to the limited-production and other crap that makes models harder to get and more expensive.
To join in on the pie fest, I'll have two slices, but make mine pumpkin with whipped cream on top.
Wife & I moved the old couch and chair into the train room. Not too much RealEstate lost and it is important for her Dad to have a place to sit when he's here. We discussed the table plans and mine keeps getting smaller. At least she has backed off the idea of all sorts of tunnels, just a couple will suffice now. Other than a Bigtop and a roller coaster, she decided she had enough circus/carnival stuff now. Next project will be building her table and my shelves. We decided her table will be the height of one of those old folding card tables. That way her layout can be viewed from the couch.
Still much to work on tonight. Rob
Rob, sounds like you're a busy guy!

Yes, yes, I do have TOP honors, so order up folks, the tab's on me. By the way, I'll also have the steak and lobster (darn you Jeff for showing it!). Hmmm...anyone have any suggestions on what number Kadee coupler will fit in my GP40-2?
Did some one say PIE FEST?....I'll have a slice of chocolate please...Thank You....Jerry
BamaCSX83Hmmm...anyone have any suggestions on what number Kadee coupler will fit in my GP40-2?
Evening, Diners! Chloe, I'll have a root beer float,
side of ribs (anyone wanna help me finish this off?),
a salad.
and.. oh, for dessert, how about a nice...
slice of apple PIE with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!
Gee, all this talk about pie today got me hungry - and we know what a bunch of chowhounds there is in this Diner... Thanks, Chloe!
Luke, I don't think it's possible to be in here. Now, maybe that's because Vinnie took our last Topic Cop out back, and that TC's never been seen or heard from since then., y'know.... Of course, if you have a good slice or two of pie (with topping of your choice), that will likely help you feel better any time of the day.
Ray, maybe the Arthur Murray places were a Midwestern and Western kind of thing back then. I sort of recall he had some TV program (back in the days...), but I don't recall lots about it. I think back then he was kinda not 'cool' or something with my age group. I do recall that I learned some dancing after school at one girl's house so I knew how to dance at the after-school "sock hops" (basic stuff - whatever it was that was around after jitterbug; jitterbug was more like my folks' kind of dancing). (Our younger Diners can do a search on Wikipedia for "sock hops").
CederstrandI've always like that tailings trestle. Just think of all the wee little folk could get into with a track to nowhere.
Bama - with all your business today, you maybe could even put $10 into savings for the MRR'ing stuff! Sounds like a busy day, all right. Is that your usual day (so far as number of jobs to work on)? On your coupler for the GP-40, that depends on who the manufacturer is - Athearn, or someone else?
But it sounded like (if he ever gets the phone call from his son) Ray might've had a busier day than you did. Did you get everything fitted in, Ray?
Not at all like mine was - in the morning, I didn't have any calls or people to see in walk-in or crisis (my co-worker only had one person in walk-in); when I got back from lunch, I swung by the phone operator for the building, and about begged her to give me some phone call, something I could put down on my time sheet for the day! About 4 p.m. I got a call from a local ER, wanting info on someone who - we'll just say, was having an extremely bad day. Rob, ask your wife if the phrase "four-point restraints" means anything to her... So I got something to put down - didn't want to jeapordize my job security and have them thinking they don't need us anymore!
Barry, you were reminding me about that phrase - about "making my words soft and tender, in case I need to eat them tomorrow".
NS Joe - is your hand sore from writing all your Spanish exam answers down? And didn't your geometry test even have a pie chart?
After reading Galaxy's and Ray's posts about women, I see why some of ya are in the Diner a lot - less time to get in trouble at home!
Robby - after the cocker spaniel got into the candy, did you have to hold its head when it got sick? I've seen that sometimes when a dog gets some kinds of people food. Heck, on that RI hopper, it barely looks weathered! I'm used to "good and rusty". But as you said, more to be done on it, right? Oh, I was looking at the 'before' photo...
Vincent - your post reminded me of my math teacher in my last two years of high school (at a military academy), Capt. (or was he a Major?) Hilpert. Our room was one of those older ones, that has the moulding strip high up on the wall, about a foot below the ceiling. So he had found a lonnnnnnggg strip of paper, and had printed pi to about as many places as you had in your post (maybe more...) all the way around three sides of the room. He made math fun for us! Great teacher.
Gonna try to w**k some more tonight on the Walthers modular warehouse (I still have to wait on two addiitional DPM module kits I ordered to get my background one going). May also have a phone call from a lady in the KC area I've been emailing, but don't know yet on that. I also got in the MRP 2009 I had ordered, and want to take a look at that, too.
On the 'necessary' list, I got my tax receipt (pers. prop.) in today, so with tomorrow being payday, I need to get the license plates for the car taken care of (before the end of the month). Not quite as many things on my plate as some of our Diners, and I'm thankful for that.
Prayers for comfort and healing (and for pipes that don't freeze up) for those in need of 'em. I'll be heading out after I finish my
Blessings,
Jim in Cape Girardeau
DID someone mentionPIE!?!?!? Great!---I'll have 2 slices of Lemon Meringue Pie please-----O ---and a large Chocolate Milk as well please----
Seems to be a lot of hungry people around of late-----
Wow! ........... Are you guys ever chowing down!!!!!!!!! .......... Steak & Lobster...... Ribs........RBF's.......... and PIE! .........
Is there any pie left?
I worked a little on a heavyweight dining car (CB&Q prototypically correct) that I am building from a kit from NKP Car Company. http://www.nkpcarco.com/index.html This is my third car from a NKP Car Co. kit. They are fun to build.
On the layout, I am making a stream. I am using the same WS stuff for the water that Sue is using. It will have a waterfall and a coverd bridge. Some other area in my new scene are done.

Yeah, Athearn Blue Box GP40-2, probably 15 years old now. No, normally I do fewer jobs than that, but I dunno, it just seemed really busy today, I think that tomorrow I'm going to start out early and try my best to finish up around 3 in the afternoon and try to make it in here in the evening. Well, since everyone else is ordering up the good stuff, I'll go for another RBF and a bowl of mixed vanilla and chocolate ice cream.
JimRCGMORay, maybe the Arthur Murray places were a Midwestern and Western kind of thing back then.
Oh.... You meant Arthur Murray the dancer. I was thinking Arthur the avocado tree at Mad Magazine.
JimRCGMOBut it sounded like (if he ever gets the phone call from his son) Ray might've had a busier day than you did. Did you get everything fitted in, Ray?
Yep he called me back. Truck is now at the dealers awaiting a new battery. No, I didn't get everything else done. But..... There is always tomorrow. By Friday I will be answering angry phone calls and e-mails as to why they don't have all the art and poetry back at the schools! I also realized I am completely out of the little award certificates (1/3 of a page) that I need to print out the Honorable Mention awards. I won't have them in stock for about a week. More phone calls from the schools as upset parents are calling the schools to find out why I haven't done my JOB! Of course all of this is volunteer.
Sure is good that I am now retired and have all this "extra" time on my hands.
CAKE!~ Who said cake ?! We don’t want no stinkin’ cake! Unless of course it’s Texas Sheet cake or maybe a Mississippi Mud cake. You know I think I’ll take a piece of both.
Bama- Might I assist you ….. Female canine. And I agree with Jeffrey Kadee #148’s
Joe- Worthy of a chuckle on the Pi/pie thing
Ray- Sounds like your semse of humor is something I can identify with. You mention Methodist a lot. That wouldn’t happen to be your….um…choice? It is mine.
Rob- Luckily you’re in N-scale (correct?) You are wise in letting her have the lions share of real estate.
Oh for Pete’s Sake I guess I’ll have what Jeffrey’s having AND what Jim’s having. I’m gonna weigh 3,000lbs
Jim- I could use those 4 point restraints for my wife when I ..um.. Lets say “don’t understand“.
Well I guess I better scoot on home. After I eat of course . Little woman is bowling tonight so it’s me and the dog.
Prayers for those in need.
Todd, yes, yes, that's it. What you called it! Well, looks like tomorrow might be slow. All I've got on my plate so far is checking the brakes out on the church van (no big deal really), and that's it, but I'm still going to just hold court there till about 3 in the afternoon, then hopefully come home and "play" on here.
Good Evening!
Thanks everyone for the...... PIE! I'll have the Steak & Lobster, a Baked Potato, and a Coke.
I got an email today saying my PikeStuff Small Modern Enginehouse shipped, so it should come tomarrow........ maybe Friday.
I be back later,
Cool deal, Luke, just remember guys, order on up, its on me!
