Joe;when I was in college,wish we had means of "downloading" the proffessors
boring lectures,that we could listen to under better conditions than some of the
classrooms that we had then.

Mook;very glad to hear your news,I'm sure it at least brings some relief.

[Mookie]

Yeah, he was so relieved, he took a page out of Mookie's book and a 2 hour nap afterward! This from a person that a nap consists of 20 seconds during a commercial and only if the world comes to a complete halt, so there is total silence!

That's a going away shot.....

Best Wishes

Mook

[locomutt]

Mookie;due to some of your posts on various threads today,
that's about the fourth time I've had to get off the floor from
laughing so hard !!!!!!!!!

Thank You for ALL !!!!!

[CShaveRR]

Congratulations, Mutt and Cher--I didn't know!

And best wishes to Ed, Sis! I think you've finally found the right person to help. (And I'm not at all surprised that she's a female! Maybe they ask the right questions more often.)

And I'm glad that the snow is staying to the east of us, for the most part. Could you blow a little bit (say a foot or two) down to Philly for our deprived friend Sarah?

Mutt & CW - CONGRATS!!![tup][tup][wow]

Carl - I'm sure some of the 100 or so motorists who found themselves suddenly no longer on the road would be more than happy to ship some of this snow south. All the kids enjoyed their day off from school, though, and the snow enthusiasts are downright gleeful!

[cherokee woman]

Thank you all, for the anniversary wishes. It's been a great 19 years being
married to Mutt!! Wouldn't trade him for anyone else! He's the love of my
life, my soul mate forever!!

Now, let's get down to some really good business: LUNCH!!

Lunch today will be open-face roast beef sandwiches w/mashed potatoes
and gravy, with your choice of peas, green beans, or lima beans, and corn.

Have a chocolate cake, or apple cobbler for dessert.

Anybody have any requests for supper tonight? If so, please let me know
by 1:30, so I can start preparing supper.

....Sunshine here again today....Sounds like I missed a bunch of news that's related above...so best to all. Visited Dr. this morning to keep a 6 month scheduled check....A bit colder here today...17 this morning. That's the coldest in weeks and weeks....maybe since a time in December. February is moving right along.....and that's great in my eyes.

[blhanel]

Hey, Mutt and CW, congrats and wishes for many more happy years. My wife and I made it to 25 last year. How about a steak dinner to celebrate?

Thank you for the invitation !!! But due to my teeth (or still lack of) may we take
a raincheck on that ?(same goes for "corn on the cob" right now.)

This one would be MUCH more than it is now,had I found the RIGHT
person the first time !![:D]

[edblysard]

Courtsey of the muncipal water supply, Temple, Texas!
Canned exclusivly for the PTRA, by an officers relative.

The UP and BNSF grab a case when ever they are out of theirs and are pulling an engine out of our service rack, I am surprised they havent been seen more...
Enjoy your Port Light!

And for Walt and Paula...congrats...turned into a pretty good ride, yes?

Well the "major" weather change is here. I am not sure it turned out to be the major change they predicted but it certainly is not the spring like weather to which we have become accustomed. Our temp is 39, but with a 13 mph wind from the NW the feels like temp is 31. So it definately is coat weather. [:(!] You guys up north are probally happy the single digits they predicted are not happening. Yet they are saying next week will be a little worse. We shall see. I always take a wait and see approach. Weather a week away is too hard to predict with any real accuracy, well that is what I think anyway. [;)]

I hope I am not forced to work our next Monday holiday. I have Tuesday and Wednesday off as they are my normal days off. I am taking a Safety Day on the Thursday following President's Day. So hopefully I will have a 4 day weekend and will go to Missouri (weather premitting) for a late Thanksgiving and Christmas. (I have unopened Christmas presents waiting for me.) They are saying since I missed Thanksgiving and Christmas that we will be having a nice TURKEY dinner. [:D] [:p] [:D] My turkey dinner here was a TV dinner and it was no so good. [B)] [V] So I am looking forward to family, friends, and FOOD. [;)] [:D] [:p]


Hey ED

I was servicing a train Saturday and found something a little different. I opened the icebox (as I always do to check it and throw away "JUNK" of needed) and found silver cans. At first I thought they were sodas. Then I saw a star on them. I thought oh no . . . someone had BEER on this engine. [:0] So I quickly put them into a blue ice bag and carried them off. Later, I decided to look at them again. The large white star has a blue, red, and white "Texas" centered in the star. Then in the upper left hand part of Texas are the letters " P T R A " . By now Ed is already laughing as he knows these cans are just their "bottled" drinking water. All the other railroads use real bottled water, this is the first time I have seen "canned" bottled water. [;)] [:)] I have 4 of them I am keeping for souvineers. [8D] A guy, who will be retiring late this year, said he has a whole case of them. [:0]

Well, got to go, tons of stuff to do before time for work.

Everyone TAKE CARE.

[cherokee woman]

Okay, here in the Diner, there will be steak and baked taters for supper,
with your choice of a side salad, or a Caesar salad (know Carl will like that),
along with creamed corn and crescent rolls.

Plenty of cake and apple cobbler left for dessert tonight.

[CShaveRR]

Carl and Caesar don't get along, but save some of the side salad for me, please (wish I could be off work for the steak!).

Since the cobbler's left over, I wouldn't mind taking some of that with me!

[cherokee woman]

Sorry Carl, I'll fix you a garden salad. Was thinking you liked the Caesar salads.
And there's a container of apple cobbler to go for you.

[JoeKoh]

wow cw and mutts anniversary! congratulations! supper sounds good tonight and I got my container ready for work.
stay safe

Happy Anniversary to CW and Mutt [:D] [:D] [:D]

And of course, Many More. [:p]

I'll make the Cake. [^]

It will come in sections. (train sections) [;)]

First sections will be the engine, a steam engine of course.

The second section will be the tender.

The last section will be a passenger car.

That is certainly a special cake for a special couple. [;)]

Enjoy [:)]

[chad thomas]

Happy anniversary Walt and Paula. And may you have many more.[swg]

Woo-hoo! Normally I can get by on an 8-ounce sirloin, but here in the Diner I'm sure I can put away a Texas-sized slab, so bring it on!

[mudchicken]

Congrats Walt & Paula.....there is hope for BossHen (she'll just say she spent too much time trying to train this old bird)

Whilst munching on my gyro and onion rings, had a really good guffaw today. Seems that a local land speculator had a survey done for a new subdivision up near Copcar's neck of the woods. There was this weedy set of old unused rails running through it. Landowner insisted that the tracks were "abandoned" and had town council declare them abandoned and reverted to the adjoining landowner (the developer). Two days before developer starts procedings to file for construction permit, BNSF asks what's going on around their branchline right-of-way????........[swg][swg][swg]
