AND LET THERE BE LIGHT!!! CW and Mutt I'm very glad to see and here that your power is BACK ON THE LINE!!!!!! I know this is a little bit late but, I missed both of you here greatly.

What is this I hear about Chicago getting 8 inchs of snow? hehehehe. I know I wine about snow all the time but, I really do want some. I haven't been able to go snowboarding all but one time this year so far due to NO SNOW! Do you know how hot it was here in Philadelphia today, it was hot enough to wear short sleves, it felt like spring. Now, I like spring and I like summer, and autum but, when it's winter time I'm expecting some SNOW!! This is way I'm over here in the great state of Pennsylvania to experience all 4 weather seasons. Well, thats not the main reason I was born here. lol

[railfan619]

Good eveing everyone how are we all doin tonight fine and dandy. I hope well the snow we got last night has already has started to melt which is a very good thing because I really don't like snow cause. I'm ready for spring and the warmer temps to come back but anywho. Well that's about it from this end Oh Cw is there any pizza left or aleast I think it's pizza night since it has been awhile since I ate here at the diner. If so I'lll be in later tonight. [:D][:D]

[CShaveRR]

Joe, it sounded to me like Nora and Rick's Chicago weekend wasn't going to have much time for railroading. I'm looking forward to their return later in the year, though!

Our weather: it was ugly when I drove to work last night--couldn't get above 35. Much of the time was spent behind drivers who were going 20 and straddling the lane lines (oh, yeah, sure, they weren't visible, but still, the curbs were!). The snow didn't affect work too much, thankfully. It kept up until about 4:00 where we were, but by the time I got off, a little before 7, the sky was clear above, with a wall of clouds to the east.

I wonder if Cher remembers what I like on a pizza. [;)]

[cherokee woman]

Joe, I'm making up said pizzas right now. They will all be ready to go in the oven
right on schedule for tonight.

Our current temp is 46. Been holding there. 46 was to be our high today,
according to the weather guys this morning.

[JoeKoh]

well we sent nora and rick on to Chicago after a brief stop in Bryan off the turnpike.after they got back on we followed the old wabash line and caught a triple crown coming north at the ohio/indiana line.the wind makes in a little cooler today but the sunshine is nice. will be ready for pizza tonight.
stay safe

Sorry, not me. It would be my luck the man would show up to take ramdom samples. Ya know what I mean? [;)] Plus I like my job. It's not train service, but I have a regular schedule and know when I work and don't work (well for the most part, I did get an OT call at 8:30 am for 11 am the same day) . Plus 2 days a week I get to drive one of the railroad's truck. [8D]

...All the nasty stuff really must have passed and headed east of us...Haven't checked the radar but we are maintaining a partly sunny day and pretty good wind gusts here too.....Did some walking and it was a bit nasty on the face but temps are now in 40's....So we're not doing too bad.....Lunch time, must head out to the Pizza King...{Has anyone ever heard of that brand}...It's famous around Muncie town...Also known as Sir Pizza in Florida....but have never seen one of those down there. But it all originated here in Muncie. Over a dozen of them here.

Already tried the wind machine here - didn't work, although I do have a gust of 27 mph recorded on the weather station..

Nice and warm yesterday, if gloomy at times. Rain this morning, but changing over to snow as I type...

[cherokee woman]

Jim White, thank you for preparing breakfast. Do happen to like eating shrimp.
Hope you made enough for everybody, cause I do share with others!!

Lunch today will be served around noon EST, and will consist of burgers and
fries. Don't want everyone to be too full for the regular Saturday night pizza fest!!

Everyone, have a great, safe day today, and be back in here by about 7,7:30
tonight for the beginning of the pizza fest.

[Modelcar]

.....And now {8:30}, the clouds have cleared and the sun is bursting through just above the horizon...and the bulk of the sky is now clear...Wham...the sun is on my computer screen....Looks like Jen's warning of "weather" has gone above us...

[jeaton]

Winter wonder land! Wonder when my step son will get up to get the 5 or so inches off the driveway. Temperature now in the high teens but forecast to get above freezing by mid day. With the sun out, the roads should be in good shape by the end of the day.

I won't complain too much. By 10pm last night, a small town on the state line east of here reported 7.5 inches and probably got one or two more on top of that.

Coffee for now. Got to look at some other stuff.

Jay

[Modelcar]

...It's a bit after 7 here in Central Indiana and the "it's coming" warning from Jen yesterday seems to be false alarm.....Nothing on the ground. Just went out to the mailbox for the paper and one or two snow flakes in the air with 39 degrees.....And if it's moving like they said it would I'd say it's already east of us...Actually I think the bulk of it went across Michigan and the top edge of Indiana and so on...Did hear a once or twice sound of thunder last night but didn't even get much rain....

[Anonymous]

CW, I'm so sorry for your loss, but it's a great feeling to see you back to the usual, however, I must now insist we prepare for you some of our faves. So sit down and relax! You've been through quite enough and deserve a break.

How does shrimp with homemade horseradish in cocktail sauce sound for an appetizer? Main dish is beer chicken over hickory, cooled and sliced in a white rice pilaf. Baby spinach decor, sauteed green and red peppers with onions. I know it's going into the morning on the east coast, but this would be great for a 4 O' Clock dinner. Actually ... come to think of it, this would make a pretty good breakfast.

Kick your shoes off. You're at home here.

[JoeKoh]

cw thanks for the carry out box. it made a great snack.the last I talked to nora she was still planning on coming this way and heading for chicago for a concert tonight.it was a little wet when i let the dog out but that wind is starting to howl.so we'll see what it looks like later this morning.
stay safe
Joe

Good late night-morning everyone......

Well, the "dusting to a half inch" of snow predicted by NBC 15 in Madison turned into four inches or so, made for some interesting driving this afternoon when I went to fill the truck up. It quit snowing a little while ago, but in the open areas, the roads are now covered in a sheet of ice.

I'm very pleased with myself tonight, I went to play in Badger Poker's free tournament and managed to last to seventh place, which is the best I have ever done in a live tournament. I even earned a free t-shirt just for making it to the final table. I played pretty solid all night, didn't make too many mistakes, and above all, just had a good time.

See everyone later for breakfast-lunch.

Randy

[Anonymous]

Got 5 Inches so far as of 10:15PM CST.

[jeaton]

What snow is getting passed Brian is being dumped right here. The very wide band is slowly moving east so we should be OK soon.

[cherokee woman]

Well, at 9:40 p.m., we have a current temp of 62 degrees F. Don't want to see
any thundersnow around here, for awhile at least.

Have popped some corn for tonight. Hope you latecomers enjoy the Friday
night treat.

And a BIG [#welcome] to Bob Flemming and switch8frog! Have a slice of
chocolate pie, or a slice of chocolate cake on the house, as a welcome to
the Diner.

[Modelcar]

....Just light rain here Central Indiana at a bit after 9 pm....and really expect possible snow flurries next 24 some time but temps are not bad at all.....Believe most of what is being talked about is going north of us.....

[blhanel]

Well, we were supposed to get maybe 2 inches, but it looks like we've got four so far and it's still snowing. The radio reported that some locales in Iowa were getting thundersnow. No noise or light show here, though.

OK, peeler is in the back pocket. Luckily, the pants are fitting much looser these days.

[Anonymous]

CShaveRR,
Yes I did notice that it is raining along the BNSF Chicago Sub at the moment....

Yes you did, but that's no fun! What's a diner without a fight between chocoholics?
Welcome back, CW and Mutt. Can I put away my potato peeler yet?

Brian,

As CW said earlier,for right now,you can put the peeler up;but I do have
a suggestion for you about that;just carry it in your hip pocket,and it
will be there when you need it. ( I almost just sat on mine[:D])

When YOU least expect it,it WILL be needed.[:(][(-D]

And Bob Flemming [#welcome] to the Forums,and particularly the Diner !![8D]
