Murry: I had to do the same thing and read some of Bergies directions to boot. I am sure that I will appreciate the new site once I become aquainted with it. I do feel that it will be a lot easier to understand than the stock market these days.
Personally I'm glad to be the pay roll where I work. Kinda reminds you of the late 1970's in a way.

Wow...Go to work and come home to find a new and improved website.
It took me a while to figure out that I had to log out and relog in in order to post.
Wow. Remodelled and everything.
Did I hear pizza for supper? Hawaiian, please.

cherokee womanAnd congrats on your 3000th post!!
Apparently not. The forums deleted 29 of them somehow so I get to reroll that odometer over later I guess.

I can help get some pizzas ready and just changed the containers on the beverage fountain so all is fresh. I think I'll turn up the heat a bit as it's a tad chilly in here today.
OK, lunch is ready.
If CW can't get in for supper, we can all have pizza.
....Well, doesn't sound too bad, so go for it and have a good day of contacts.

.....Tom, C W, Good morning...I'm a bit early this morning so no use to toss and turn so I'm here with coffee and present in the computer room. 65 degrees here right now....dark outside yet, so can't tell what the sky looks like yet.
Possible rain forecast today later, but they did that yesterday too and it remained dry around here.
Very mild for this time of year.
Is this a good time {of the year}, for the wireless Tom.....?
All have a good day.
WOW!! Dan, I'm glad I move on the slow side first thing in the morning: otherwise, I might have fallen, coming in the door. Thank you for all you did last night. Everything looks spotless, and the floor is super shiny.
Our current temp, at 6:20 a.m., is 66 degrees, believe we're to get up to 81, 82, somewhere around there today, before the rain comes in late this afternoon.
Dan, keep on doing the little things to nicely surprise your new bride! And congrats on your 3000th post!!

Thanks Brian. I'm planning on keeping that kind of thing up. I'm glad to start today off with a milestone (of sorts) here in the FWC. I'll get the place cleaned up since I'm in a cleaning kind of mood right now anyway. Be careful in here in the morning-the floors will be freshly waxed too!

CNW:
If you want to know the truth about what is important I think you just covered it.
I hope your wife smiled at you when you dropped by and she then gave you a promise in her eyes.
What you did a lot of the high ticket folks don't do, will not do, and in a lonely moment can only dream about doing or having the wealth that you just described.
And as an old boss of mine used to say, BETTER THAN WELL DONE,
Dan, you're welcome! Will clean the fridge out after awhile, and then restock it in the morning, while everything's being updated around here.
Other than being two doors up at the Center this morning, haven't been anywhere to check local gas prices here. And, I don't believe I have heard any local prices quoted on our local news today. Maybe they did, and I missed it.
And, I've refreshed everything on the warmer bar, for tonight's Mexican Fiesta.
Joe, be sure to get your containers for work tonight.
Everyone enjoy, and have a great evening.
They were reporting gas in Bowling green ohio at 2.45 and here its down to 2.85. I went and caught some KCS belles this afternoon while matt was in school.matt was glad to see them on the computer.time to get some supper and get ready for work.
stay safe

Deshler Ohio-crossroads of the B&O Matt eats your fries.YUM! Clinton st viaduct undefeated against too tall trucks!!!(voted to be called the "Clinton St. can opener").
.....Within the past couple of hours here in Muncie, I noted gasoline @ $2.89. Glad to see it slowly dropping but they are still way behind what crude has dropped. Indianapolis is cheaper, yesterday...heard it was in the range of $2.69.

Special Occasion? (Rhetorical question).
Reminds me of the old saw - "What makes a woman's mind work?
"Giving her flowers for no apparent reason....."
Paid $3.259 for gas last night - about the lowest in the area from what I've seen. The way it's been dropping, though, the end is not in sight yet.
I'm even more encouraged by what this might mean for my fuel oil bill this winter.
Been thinking about work lots lately...I'm just glad that I have a job! Seems some folks in town feel that they have a "right" to have a $100k salary for doing nothing and are pretty vocal about it. I can put food on the table and keep the roof over our heads. It's better than nothing!
Swung past the CN Neenah yard this morning. All that was moving was two locals: one NB and one SB. Saw an IC Scale Test Car (IC 100120) which was a first for me. I haven't seen one in person before. On the way home I decided to stop by my wife's work and drop off some flowers and candy for her.
Thanks for the burritos CW. I'll pop back in later!
Looks like we've been a tad bit slow this morning, here in the Cafe. Tuesday Produce went fairly well today. We only had 66 people. On the truck today: potatoes, romaine lettuce, diced green peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, packets of butter and maple syrup.
I've got the first round of our Tuesday Mexican Fiesta on the warmer bar. On today's menu:
1. Burritos (beef, beef & bean & beef enchilada style)
2. Tacos (both soft shell and hard shell)
3. Fajitas
4. Chimichangas
5. Shredded lettuce with diced tomatoes
Hope you all have a very pleasant afternoon. Think I'm going to go take a nap. For some reason, I'm really sleepy this afternoon.
Mild start here in nw ohio this morning.rain possibly this afternoon.matt is on the bus and the trash is at the curb.Cw thanks for breakfast.time for a nap.
.....67 degrees and partly cloudy skies starts our day here....Possible rain later today. Still really nice for mid October.
Good Tuesday morning, everyone. Very pleasant temps here this morning; temp is around 66 degrees, w/hardly any breeze blowing. If any of you watch Good Morning America, you'll see their meterologist, Sam Champion, broadcasting the weather from Louisville, this morning. Louisville is hosting the National Weather Service Convention this week. They're right by the Ohio River.
Mudchicken, good to know you all made it home safely, and didn't land in any traps along the way.
Coffee, juices and our other morning beverages are ready. And on the breakfast/warmer bar this morning: turkey bacon, bagels, bear claws, sausage, scrambled eggs, biscuits & gravy and tater tots.
Only have two people outside waiting for Tuesday Produce. I see the sisters are back this week. You all have a good morning, and I'll see you all later.
$2.67 at Hays, KS... $2.99 at Cincy and Peoria....$3.42 at North Platte...$3.20 at Walnut, IA... $2.87 in Columbia, MO....$2.83 here in Denver .......................all since Wednesday
Crawled in in here at 1:30pm today.....have seen a DumpTrain working, the carcass of an NW-5 (BN 994), an S-1 carcass (BRN 71), a Lima 1000SW (CUT25),an 0-6-0 NYC switch engine rust bucket, an S-1 in NYC paint switching, a RS-20 LeTourneau heavilly modified GP7.....but not Mook's mystery engine....and I zoomed through Lincoln at 1:30 Sunday afternoon......busy week.
Lurch thanks Western NE for washing the bugz off, but not the electrical problem.
Q: Gas here at $2.67 in two places I saw.
That's less that a gallon of milk. Can't do without either!
Got my 401K on a 3x5 recipe card. Guess they didn't think it was worth putting in on big paper. When it comes on a rock through the window, will have to seriously think about changing something!
I-80 - we used to be flyover country. Now we are still flyover and drive really fast past it.
Lots of feathers up and down that highway - from the fastest chicken in Colorado!

afternoon
a beautiful day here in nw ohio.Was mowing the yard and brown van pulls up.My wife ordered some train things from a catalog and matthew kept quiet about!!! quite a surprise for our anniversary.matt also got a "super" sticker on his last spelling test too.Cw I can help clean out the fridge for wednesday for the computer change.Its nice that Inspector Bergie and crew keep this forum running.Time to get cleaned up.
.....Jen, was in your state this afternoon.....{by phone}.....securing some insurance changes....Omaha.
Also just looking on a map, noted we passed right thru your fair city {close}, on I-80 many years ago on an auto test trip to the mile high Denver city......{M C's land}.
.....Sure Jen, Gas prices should have gone down much more than they have so far....Using round figures 40% drop in crude prices, and gasoline should have followed {according to what they've been telling us now for some time}, which would put us in the general range of $2.50 / gal. We all know that isn't happening in most places.
Just this morning our prices went from 2.99 here to 2.91. Down in Indy, roughly 55 miles south....2.69. Supply and demand...Baloney.
But check out the market.....A good day.....In another 15 min. it will close and looks like over 600 point gain. {As it appeared a few min. ago}.
Edit: Closes at 936 points up.....!!!!!!!
Dale, you must have been reading my mind! Today is your lucky day. There is pumpkin pie on the menu today, along with pumpkin cookies.
Today's menu:
1. Roast, taters, carrots, shellie/green beans, broccoli, cole slaw, homemade biscuits, beef gravy
Today's desserts:
1. Chocolate cake
2. Pumpkin cookies (and used a pumpkin cookie cutter)
3. Pumpkin pie
4. Yellow cake w/caramel icing
5. Ice cream
Sun has been out for about a half hour now. Before that, it was overcast all morning. Supposed to get to a high of 84 this afternoon.
You all enjoy your meal, and have a good afternoon.
