Way late and out of order and after the time limit, here is a movie theater.  But in the poeriod I model, the first show was not until noon except on Saturday.

Mom parked one spot away from front of theater to avoid fire zone, but the kids standing agt the curb can't see she is there to pick them up because she is not RIGHT in front.

I was late and out nof order so let's lumber along to simon1966's request.... lumber yard.

7:43...time's up on the movie theatre request.

Show me some fall foliage!

 Sorry, my mistake.....Okay, apparently we are not using an EST time stamp....if we go until 8:43 without a movie theatre, then show me some fall foliage. Sad

Oops!  Guess we're looking for something that goes over 100mph.  Anybody got a piledriver that'll do more'n a hundred? Laugh

Well, I've got double headers:

...and double steaks (on the hoof):

...and stacks of lumber:

...I've even got double stacks of lumber:

...but I don't think any of those is what was requested. 

Since the two hour time limit has elapsed, show me a piledriver.

Someone said, "show me rules". Then the rules were shown, but nothing new was requested. Are we done, or can I show breaking the rules and request something?
