Well 1st thing I would like to say is that. Iam getting better at asking questions but I am still a little shakey at certain things but give it some time and I know it will get better.And on the 2nd thing. The worlds Biggest music festival starts tommorow or better known as
Summerfest. [:D][^]

CW - Welcome to the club![:D][bow][tup][yeah]

Water! Need Water! Despite the weather supposedly being a little cooler today, you can't prove it by me. Of course two hours in firefighters gear this morning didn't start my day off any too well. My morning commute was interrupted by a structure fire in a neighboring district - 4th on scene, but no engines yet. We kept it down some with extinguishers until the engine did arrive and we could put some real water on it. Still smoke and water damage throughout the place, and a real mess around where it apparently started.

By the time we got done I was soaked to the skin. And I never handled a hose (chief's perogative - I did do the television interview, though).

Decided to take the rest of the day off from work, too. Of course as I napped mid afternoon, a gentleman failed to notice a stopped car ahead of him so we were back out again to deal with that. The funny part of that one (no one was hurt, by the way) was that the tailgate of the truck had the name and number of a well-known NASCAR driver on it - we joked about his having drafted a little close.

Sitting back and waiting for number three....

CW - Nice job!!! I wonder how many meals you prepared?

How about a burger and rootbeer?

[railfan619]

Hey I know that is a fun thing to do. I did it all of the time when. I would be driving my
bus I always aimed for the biggest puddles and of course people would look at me like
I was nuts but hey. It was fun and that's all that counted.

[CSXrules4eva]

All Hail the Great Cook. Congrats CW on reaching 2,000 posts!!!! Good, nno I should say Great accomplishment.[bow][bow][dinner]

Railfan619 congrats on your fist star. [:D]

Ok I went to school today and took my in class essay (test) on is it right for the Philadelphia school district to dedicate African American History as an entire course, as a requirement to graduate high school. I got my paper back on Amtrak's Acela and I got a A plus, thankx Carl for the wonderful editing skills!!!!!! Then I went to the gym which was beyond packed, then I went to Whole Foods Market for some food products, then I drove home (On the way home I drove my truck at 40mph through a huge puttle of water and I got my truck all wet!! That was fun, and a the people behind me thought I was nuts. But hay when you have a 6 inch lift on your truck you can do things like that lol) and got on the computer. Pretty exciting stuff huh??/ lol

Carl yes it was interesting that both of us were in the Diner eailer today. Ya know I was late to class because I was in here. I didn't really care though.

[railfan619]

I'd like to say that. I got my 1st star today I know it may not be big to all but for me it was and one day I just hope to get 5 stars. Just like some of you.

[chad thomas]

A big thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes.

And welcome railfan 619.[;)]

[Granny74]

2000 posts for Cherokee Woman!!!!Hooray! and to think that we have probably read all of them!! We are impressed--2000 is a lot of posts. And the menu for today sounded really good, especially all of those cookies!
And we didn't realize that this is a 5 Star diner! It's not raining here in Az where we are and the temp in Tucson is about 108.
Congratulations and thanks for all the wonderful posts on the train forum!

stay safe
joe

[railfan619]

Boy this is getting harder to write in here because you all have good storyies to tell and I only have one but I am sure you have already seen it. If not then i'll tell it . When I was little I got to move an Amtrak train into the station and the reason for that was I was apart of that big brother program and they though getting me on a train would work and weel it did. But anyway getting to move an amtrak train was the coolest thing ever and I hope one day. I get to do something like that again.

[Mookie]

Ah - she "Produced!".....

(OK, don't start with the rotten tomatos for that one).

Well,as CW said, we HAD a rain shower,fairly heavy for about 15 min. or so.
wound up with about 3-4/10" in the gauge;temp. went from 86 to 80,now back to
82,sun came out brightly. And of course you know what the humidity did!

Happy Birthday Chad [bday] Hope you have a great one!!!!

Congrats to CW on obtaining her 5th star;Well Deserved!!!! [bow][C=:-)][bow]

Willy,don't think I could have tied her to the chair,somehow shes got the dog
on her side,and 'dog' probably would have untied her.

[railfan619]

Hi good morning how is everyone doing I would like a LG Pepsi to go.
does anyone have any good train stories that they can share.

[cherokee woman]

OKAY, EVERYONE!! HERE GOES: MY 2,000TH POST:

IT'S RAINING HERE IN LOUISVILLE!! It's actually pouring
buckets right now. Been raining for about five minutes. Mutt got
the rain guage and put it out in the front yard. Will let you know later
how much we get.

And Carl, here's some limeade just for you!!

AND CHAD: [bday]. May all your dreams come true today. Maybe new
girlfriend will fix you a special birthday dinner!!

[CShaveRR]

Hi! Can you believe that Sarah and I are both here at the same time?

Happy birthday, Chad--and congratulations on the girlfriend. They certainly are fun and revitalizing, but they do take a lot of time (and somehow, one never regrets it!).

We had a family gathering for dinner yesterday (some of my wife's relatives from California; first time we've seen them in about 17 years). High point of my night was my six-month-old granddaughter reaching over and wanting to hold onto me. I guess she's claiming ownership there.

Cher, if you respond to this request for some nice, cool limeade, it should be your 2000th post. Congratulations (I might make it to 2000 by year-end)!

[CSXrules4eva]

CW thankx for baking those o so wonderful cookies!! I'll be sure to eat them up!!! yum yum [bow][dinner]. I think I'm going to also eat up some meatloaf and some and some mashed taters. That sounds and tastes good too!!

Railfan 619 welcome to the Diner, I'm sure our master cook CW gave you a formal welcome yesterday. [:D]

Chad Thomas happy b-day!!!! I hope u get everything you've been asking for for ur b-day. [:D][bday]

It's going to be a hot and muggy one here today. So, I guess I have to be prepared for that one. It's suposed to rain here, we'll see what happens. Ya know I'm also running late to my English Comp class, since I'm here in the Diner, but hay it's well worth it!!!!

Catch u all later on today..............[angel]

[Mookie]

mmm - Happy Birthday Chad - make it chocolate cake and I will help you hold your fork!

One for you, two for me....

Mook!

[chad thomas]

Hello all. I just wanted to stop in and say hi to everyone. I have not had much time to stop by lately. I have a new girlfriend and you know how that goes. Congrats to CW on your new star. Oh and today is my birthday so I'll take some cake please. Not that I realy celebrate it but a peice of cake sounds good. Anyway I'm not going to stay long, I just wanted to say hi to all my fellow forum members. Hope everyone has a great day!!!

[Anonymous]

C'mon CW, you know you want to do it. Mutt, tie her in the chair in front of keyboard. You know it's useless to resist. Let's all start chanting together CW!CW!CW! Go to the light in front of you, go to the light!
Am going into cookie coma if you don't stop cooking! [(-D] Willy

[jeaton]

Any extra cars on the train? Amtrak uses that train to bring cars out of Beech Grove to Chicago for forwarding to other points on the system. Delay could be related to that. Just a guess.

At least there is no way they were holding the train for the Governor for a ride up to Chicago. lol

[Tharmeni]

Anyone in the diner have a clue why the Hoosier State left Indy so late this morning? It originates in Indy!

[CopCarSS]

Congrats in advance for the 5th star CW! It's only appropriate that there should be 5 stars for such a fine dining establishment![bow]
