  • hey guys

    i just had an idea... i know kinnda strange right? it dosen't happen offten. lol i think we should start a little forum group just us and we could start a "fund" to A pay for the forum and B we could "adopt" a steamer or rail car the engine we could put on  a display or the rail car we could recommission and have it run w/ our logo. also train groups get discounts a particpating hobby shops we could have meets some were and train shows... it sounds kinda stupid and expensive acctually lol Sign - With Stupid [#wstupid]

  • I can see where he's going but you must remember that most of the people here may not hold a job. I wouldn't have a problem with it but people would rather talk, I think, and would rather do what they always do. But if you would like to start it go ahead. It may become popular, you never know.

    Anyway, things are going well for me. Nothing new to report for you guys, So keep on a trackin.

  • I am gainfully employed. During the summer, I buy old junked out locomotives, fix'em up then sell em at a local train show over the summer. I also am a shooting instructor at the local gun club year-round. To keep me occupied during the winter, I am a hunting guide. My family owns some of the best hunting land in the entire county. So I can charge high dollar.

    You're all so spoiled.....

     Senior pranks day? That's EVERY day at my school! Like that one time me and a friend burst into my chem classroom and had a lightsaber fight during a lecture...that was classic.

    If we can get three pigs, we're going to release them in the school.

    They'll be numbered '1', '2', and '4'.

    Mwahahaha. 

    Your totally did not take my idea lol. I live out in farm country and I live on a farm but we dont have pigs but I know people who do, I want 3 piglets, cover them in vasaline take them in the school and give each one a boot, and they we take of running and squeling just no one will beable to hold on to them if they do grab them. But I like the numbering idea. LOL Mike

    so what do you guys think? $50.00 down payment should do right?

  • worth a shot.... even if 50 seems more than a bit low....

    how about 30,000 monthly payments of one dollar?

     

  • Hello...

     Just saying 'hey'...schools almost over for me, cant wait! Smile [:)]

     Oh, and just to be clear, I myself want NO part of this whole plan with the locomotive or anything else that is being mentioned... I got too much other stuff to do!

     I'll stop in here and chat every now and then but thats about it! Wink [;)]

  • NOTE: Having re-read my post above, I realized that it may come off as harsh, and please understand that it is not meant to be harsh or hostile or mean or anything...I am just stating where I stand in order to prevent confusion later.

    Am I paranoid? Quite possibly ! Smile,Wink, & Grin [swg]
