Holy Cow, I am not a Troll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (What is Dennis B Smoking?)

[Anonymous]

I don't know about the dust bunny thing it was just something that lotus098 tipped me off on. I think he said it to me as a meens of dismissing my negative feelings about the UP charges that I was posting about.

Anyways that snarky comment really openned a new world to me about the new and exciting world of Dust bunnies and dust bunny collecting. Who knew there could be such variety. Check out www.dustbunnies/forums/collecting/landscapes.com. It changed my whole outlook on my hobby and I am tearing down the layout to build my new collecting space.

At least on the dust bunny forum no one comes around with beligerant and half formed "facts" about why my opinion on UP and thier fee collecting is wrong.

I also found this, not sure if this was before or after***I didn't look at the dates:

http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=24806

Again I find the Model Railroader general Discussions to be the best and freindliest forum here on the Kalmback site. You guys can get serious and have fun.

This was before I started posting here. That guy doesn't sound like me at all, I tend to be very long winded, and use a minimal of smiles. How could you mistake Ted E. Bear, for me?
Can you spell SLANDER!

Well you made your point over there (CTT) several times over I think. So why are you complaining here (MR) about something that happened there? Why don't you write a message to Dennis B instead of doing this so (semi) publicly and in a forum that has no knowledge of what caused this squabble.

I rather liked the whole humor deal, he did paint a good picture, and I fell for the link.

I said something to the effect that if you could not afford the UP licensing (gave an actually number), you should probably get a cheaper hobby, like collecting dust bunnies. Of course, it is a joke.

OK, here's what I think about this "problem." It's so easy on this and all other forums to be someone your not. Put any name, have aliases, be a troll or a flamer ,and it doesn't matter, cuz no one knows who you are! A while back someone on one of these forms suggested that we ALL use our real names. What would be so bad about that?

If you get right down to it, those of us who choose to be "who we are" are actually quite reachable. If you use some common sense, our profile and our name, you could actually find us. (Maybe that's a bad thing nowdays). But I like it when I look at a post or in a profile and actually KNOW who I'm talking to. So, Mr. Lotus 098, I'd like to think you're a young fella, but unfortunately, as someone else above said, maybe you're NOT. If you're who you say you are, blow it off and stop worrying. Cuz it really don't matter what the rest of us think.

'nuff said.

Amen.

The dust bunny thing was a way I was dissmissed for my short sighted and borderline communist views on UP fund collection methods. Apparently I spend too much of my time in a pro-Up-bashing area and I needed to be taught the err of my ways. The dust bunny thing was a way of dissmising me and finding me a slower paced less expencive hobby with no licencing worries. Thanks again it's changed my life.

I would have been quite happy to leave it be, however he couldn't he had to come over to the Model Railroader side, and make a greater claim. Just how would you suggest I could have done that, I can't email the guy, and I wanted to warn others?

Would you and "Lotus098" knock it off!! This dust bunny stuff is irritating!! Just live your life, forget about things and keep model railroading and don't collect "dust bunnies"!! Of all things to think up Lotus098!

You got this all wrong, I think the humor on the dust bunnies is great! I am sitting here reading all this now and instead of looking for an outcome, I am having fun.

Which is what we all should be doing...

I don't know about everybody else, but tis whole thing seems like a waste of good web space. A big crowd has gathered around to see the school yard fight. It's like when you see an accident up ahead, everybody slows down to see if they can see how bad of an accident it really was. Yes I know this sounds morbid, but it is just human nature. I read this forum a lot, I don't make a lot of posts. One star or fifty stars what difference does it really make? Our hobby is relaxing lets keep it that way and forget about who said what. After all, not all of us are still in grade six.

Might be a waste of space. Actually I am home schooled, so I am in the 8th grade in English and the 10th in math. Nope, not bragging. I see that with traffic accidents all the time.

I had a couple of questions about modeling trains but you all scare me. I will ask them some where else. This forum is for fighting???

[Anonymous]

I am working on my dustbunny model of a UP GP-50 and unit trailer train.

I know what you are going to ask so I will beat you to it. No I am not going to pay UP a dime.

I started by unravelling a yellow sweater over a sheet of paper. I then carefully tipped the paper up and made a "dust ball". This step is tricky because the rest of the model is built off this base. The color of the model is due to the dust used.

I found that the best place to get sweaters for this is a thrift shop. It takes several sweaters in various colors and some time to build up a nice dust train. It is also tricky to find a good work area. A good wind will distroy minutes of work so it is best to work in a corner or other protected area like under the bed. When you are done some hairspray will set you dust bunny model and it can be carefully transfered to your dust bunny landscape or layout as we call them in the US.

You can see a gallery of my work at www.dustbunny/models/landscape/gallery/emmmaandy.com

What do you think? Surprising likeness right? I was trying to go for a weathered workhorse look. Would love to hear you comments.

What brand of couplers did you use? They look a little over scaled. Sorry but just trying to get my dryer going so I too can start collecting them.

Drew22, I'm not like these guys. I wouldn't even open a string like this much less read it and then post a response. Doesn't anyone want to talk about modeling? I'm having a heck of a time trying to model Pheasants in HO.
