Funny scene? The Messy family house (left) next door to Mrs. Neatnik.  That is the Messy family dog visiting Mrs. Neatnik's lawn.  It is a much more pleasant and green place to do the dog's business than the unkempt Messy family yard.

Show me a scene that could have a PUN made about it.

Oops- selector beat me with a funny scene, so his request is the proper one, you betcha your ash.  Show an ash pit.

Here is a "work train" I used to service myself working on the staging yard a month or two ago.

IVRW how much did you get charged for those extra suitcases??

I think that question be better answered by my grandmother, who is more experienced in two or three times as many suitcase connectors. But in this case, none, because I hijacked the locomotive from the nearby excursion train. Big SmileWinkSmile

Show me a garbage truck.   Specifically, so as to avoid the confusion we had over the cement truck (ahem), a truck meant for collection and transport of household waste.
