I have a bad feeling some people think I'm a star chaser. I've posted 41posts (this being my 42nd) in only 5 days. I was wondering if that's star chasing. Plus it seems nobody reads my forums. But I just need to be patient. If someone thinks I've posted a lot, it's because I like to post, OK?

See the thread on member rank...

Star chasing is posting useless drivel (as I mentioned in the other thread, things like "me too" posts - just agreeing with previous posters without adding to the topic). If you're asking questions and sharing your knowledge, no one will begrudge you your posts. Sometimes it helps to search the forums before you ask a question, though, as the topic may have been beaten to death previously. If the forum participants are thoroughly tired of the topic, you might get some curt replies.

Most important: Have Fun!

Any apple pie here in the diner? Some ice cream would be good with that, too.

BC - kitty could use a little pat....been one of those days.

Landpeople going to replace our carpet mid August. Throughout duplex. Carpet company told them, they will be responsible for taking up old one. I don't want a herd of people in all my 810 sq feet pulling up carpet, so Driver and I will try to do it a little at a time. Have heard nothing but horror stories about the dirt, the glued to the floor, etc. (The carpet has been down since Hector was a pup!)

Landpeople very nice - don't want us to lift a finger, but ....see above.....

Kitty has a headache!

Larry: Your brothers at Denver FD just pulled a General Alarm building evacuation test on our building again. I am still in disbelief that people would hide in the restroom to avoid heading downstairs (10 floors for us).....Hope they get a suitable nasty fine![}:)]

Hmm, you know what sounds good? Bostom Cream Pie...Yum.

He who might be called Fred, don't worry, it happened to me when I joined. I wasn't called a star chaser, because I couldn't post much with a dial up connection running at half-capacity and below. But, with the replies and all, some topics are hits, and some aren't. I know that most of mine haven't been. But, this forum is to learn and have fun, and that is easy to do.

MC and Tree - had another major fire here in heartland. Two men working on car, put gasoline into a styrofoam cup - it ignited and burned down a duplex - no not mine!

Then, they were caught again this morning illegally burning trash from the fire! Some people just don't learn, do they!

I've wondered what would happen if I made a new forum called "Depot Dinner & Coffee Shop." I wouldn't do that but it's just fun to thinhk about it. Another thing that I feel like saying is I've noticed most people are older then here (like 99% of the members). But still, everyone is usually nice to me. It's good.

[alstom]

I say that BNSF rocks the west and CSX the east! That;s what is on my mind! lol[:D][(-D]

[railfan619]

Well anyway hope everyone is enjoying the nice temps and CW I'll fill some buckets and send them your way. [8D][8D]

[cherokee woman]

[locomutt]

Joe,

Yeah,we've got a big enough plate for a "mess" of spaghetti for Matt.[:D]

[railfan619]

I can't beleave that summer is almost over some of the year round schools here in milwaukee start tomorrow and just over 4 weeks all of the schools start and. Well I have missed my summer break now I am ready for a week of doing nothing and sleeping until the crack of NOON [(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D]

[CSXrules4eva]

alstom I really do like the way you think!! CSX most definitly (spelling) rocks the east. Back in the in the Conrail days I would of said that the Big Blue rules the east, and it did. Goodness I miss the old BIG BLUE. Than again I miss a lot of things like the PRR days.........son on so forth ( I wasn't even born then in PRR days, and I miss them) Interesting....................maybe I should invent a time machine and get it patented.

Well, let me say this........ I'm READY FOR SOME RAIN NOW!!!!!!!! I don't care if it rains for 40 days and 40 nights I just want some rain. I need to see some flash floods, and lighting. I also need to feel the cool rain drops hit my face. I need to feel the wind too. Tonight I might get my chance since, it's suposed to thunder storm here in the Philly reagion. We'll see. Today at work I almost passed out it was so darn hot and humid. I was working in a building w/o AC and virtully no air circulation were I was working. Because the building sits directly in the sun if it's 97 degrees outside it's 120 degrees inside the building. I was so happy to get out of that building today.

CW I think I'm going to need a double sized regular plate for din din tonight because, I'm starving, and I happen to be really fond of Italian Spaghetti.

[espeefoamer]

I hope the air conditioning is working at the Diner tonight. It is really hot here,and I am coming over for spaghetti and some apple pie.Better have an extra tall iced tea ready[:p]!

[railfan619]

Why dont you come up to the midwest where it is nice and cool temps are down in the 60's now and the humidity levels are down around 45 or 50 it feels so great for a change [8D][8D][:D][:D]

[rvos1979]

Italian spagetti and cherry crisp and pie--you really know how to get one's stomach rumbling like an EMD 645, don't you, CW?[dinner][dinner] My sisters and I would probably clean you out!!

Sarah, have you ever heard of the Bach Dancing and Dynamite Society? They're pretty good.

Beautiful day here, just got back from taking Archie (roommates dog) for a nice walk around our little cul de sac. I think he's getting more powerful every day, must be the bull mastiff in him.

I don't think there's a plate in the world big enough to hold tonites special, so we'll start off with a small order.

What? You didn't make the Boston Cream pie for me? I feel left out....

No I don't, I'm home.[:D]

[cherokee woman]

I'm sorry Scott: I typed Zach's name instead of your's. Please forgive me.
I did not mean to do that. Didn't even notice my typo when I reread it. Again,
forgive me, please. But there is plenty, so anybody who wants some, can
have them: we all share here.

And don't anyone worry about having to have small portions: I have big dinner
plates, along with the "breakfast" plates, that are slightly smaller. So you can
have all you want of the spaghetti.

And along with the other cooking, I also baked some lemon bars. So we
have an extra dessert item tonight and tomorrow.

[railfan619]

OH well have a good night I gotts to get up early again tomorrow for another wonderful day at work but I hope everything will go goods on my new RT but anywho hope everyone eles has a good day at work tomorrow to and I'll talk to you all later [|)][|)][zzz][zzz][zzz]

[cherokee woman]

Sure is quiet in here tonight. Looks like I'm all by my lonesome in here to-
night. That's o.k.: I've just been sitting here, watching the layouts running.
But I'll be turning them off in a few. Don't want to leave them running all night,
do we?

Everyone have a good night, and we'll see you bright and early in the morning![|)]

[jeaton]

As long as the door to the frige isn't locked. I'll clean up after my late night snack.

Hot black coffee, darlin' and keep it coming. On the way home from work last night, I figured I just might have a few spare bucks left over after today's paycheck paid the bills. Then my water pump failed and my car is now sitting in a parking lot and I have to go meet the tow truck operator in a few minutes. I guess we can forget any spare money this month.

Spare money always finds a home, and it's not usually where you want it to live. The problem was that the car heard you talking about the spare money. A sad tale, but true, and many the motorist who has had the experience.

[cherokee woman]

Spare money: what's that?!?!?!

Good cool morning, everyone! We're at 64 degrees this morning. Man, does
that feel good!!

Breakfast this morning: turkey bacon, sausage, biscuits & gravy, eggs, fried
potatoes, cantalope, watermelon, and tomato slices.

Hope everyone has a good day today, and, as Joe & Matt say, "Stay safe."

It is a law in this universe that you will never have more money than paycheck!

....Beautiful, great weather in Muncie today....What a relief from the heat...! To be like this thru the weekend. Great day for my plumber to be here replacing my submersible well pump. Big hurdle is over...He has the old one out and pumping out dirt particles and cleaning with bleach, etc....and then installing the brand new one....Water 18 ft. below the yard surface....which is ok. Pump will hang down in well at 45 ft. level.
