Welcome. I and some of the others here can probably use your help. (The others can speak for themselves.) Assume rocks has to do with music rather rip-rap on the Lake Shore.

Precisely, make mine a double..Kerry is speaking as I type this[:(]

Maybe I can claim sick time, go home and drowned by dissappointment with train video's, maybe what I need most is to veg to the sounds of a geared Climax grinding its way around a bend, or the soothing sounds of a K-36 winding its way thru the New Mexico mountains[V]

That and the Long Island....

Mookie, maybe when I'm feeling better I'll tell you about a drink thats BETTER (and stronger) than a Long Island, its called an "Adios, MotherF****r!" but not today, must veg...

The diner will hold a pity party for about an hour this evening and then we will all go back to being just what we all are - (and what that is, I am not sure. Maybe just Americans?) Sorry Canada - your pity party will come later....

Marty, you can have the steak, eggs and coffee. But you KNOW we don't
serve alcohol in here!! I'll make you a pot of extra strong coffee for your
hangover, though.

Snakes, I can understand: don't like them either!!

Anybody ready for some veggie soup and cornbread? Or how about
meatloaf?

Well, you will get two aspirin and no alcohol. We are alcohol-free.
But we do have our share of small furry creatures - and I think I see one that needs my attention.
