This is the thread that never ends.

It goes on and on my friends.

Someone started typing it not knowing what it was,

and they'll continue typing it forever just because,

(With apologies to Shari Lewis)

I hate eating crow, but it's beginning to look like this time I must. Ashamed [*^_^*]

 

Bet that crow would taste good with some Habanero sauce.... You might want to ask Dilbert's accounting department on the best way to cook crow Sign - Oops [#oops] - that was cooking pigeons, uh never mind.

Looks like the thread got hijecked by the sillies... A lot more fun seeing people blowing off steam (gotta keep a train theme here) by being outrageously silly than verbal fistfights.

Thousand-leggers are water-seeking critters. I drowned one in my tub three days ago, ground one in my disposall yesterday, and buttocked another on my toilet seat today. I love this place!!!

Almost forgot about caterpillars (back to railroads) We saw them in trainlike formations on East Broad Top's dormant rails between Woodvale and Alvan years ago. The only way to go in rough foliage. They squished in orange, purple and green colors.

Insulting PC on the QT in the old days would get you KP.

Now what about UP?

 I don't care what Mr. Van Dorp says, it is not UP's fault.   Unlike PC, UP does not have standing derailments.   At least ours keep moving.

Now a bunch of negative ratings would be unheard of in the Cafe thread.

Maybe its because we mentioned pie?

Do you need to get some sort of Cafe Thread approval before mentioning food here?

Donkey, Donkey have nice teeth, lets you eat pie filled with Beefs!
