Our university is letting Tommy Lee (Motley Crue, Pamela Anderson) film a reality show here on campus.

He's "attending" classes and causing quite a stir. The university is doing it - not for the $ mind you, but for the publicity to let the people know what a fine university we have here in good ol' Lincoln! I hear he is taking History (he has a great one), Horticulture (probably grow better plants) Chemistry (after the plants are grown) and Womens Studies - I am not even going to comment on that one!

I am going to a corner of the diner and sulk

[#wstupid]


Cool, last movie I saw with Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee was certainly......entertaining........[:0][:D]

Well, this is my first time in the diner here, and I gotta say it seems like the place to be. I am trying to read through all of the pages, and made it through the first 10 pages tonight, so I figure in the next week and a half I will be able to make it through all of it. I have to know what's going on to keep up with anything!

(I figure that it will probably take me as many cups of coffee and tea to get through this as have already been cosumed over the time here[:)])

Oh well, time to turn out the lights and prepare for another big day tomorrow!

Where's the beeeeeeeeef [?]

(Wasn't she just so cute [:)] )


It is raining, and it is about 1:10 am. The humidity is grrrrrrrrrrrr. The door windows are up as so to are the windows. Muggy? Yes very. [:(] But Jim is going to be cheap and not turn on the air conditioning. [:0] And just think, Walt wanted to turn off the ceiling fans. No way Charlie, they are needed tonight big time. Think I will have some iced tea to help cool down. [;)]

And someone . . . p l e a s e . . . keep the ketchup away from Mikey. [}:)] [;)]

Anyway, I think Mikey needs some popcorn and butter anyway. [:p] [:D]

Well, "Trackside" turned out to be a bust: at least tonight, anyway. Eighteen
minutes into it, the video goes, and then the audio goes. And at 7:30, "I Love
Trains" was about road equipment: dozers, graders, etc. bummer

Just had another bowl of that good HOT five alarm chilli for supper. Gets better
and better each time I have it. Just wish I had thought to get some ice cream or
sherbet for dessert, though. shucks.

BTW, tonight on RFD-TV, there's a couple of different train shows on.
Trackside at 7 p.m. eastern, and at 7:30, I Love Trains.

Uhh, sorry about the chicken. It's all in our cooler, ready to be seasoned tonight and cooked on Sunday. 500 halves.... We start serving at noon. Support your local fire department!

Well, I see Jim left the coffee on. Since it's 9:40, guess we'll have brunch , even
though it's not Sunday morning. Brunch will consist of:

Jim's leftover cinamon buns, doughnuts, danish rolls, cantaloupe and water-
melon.

Hmmm, wonder where Scott has been, don't see any turbines on the HO layout tonight. Well that is ok, I guess I will just run my Spectrum 4 8 2 Mountain around the layout. The Frisco mountain can pull some of my Frisco heaveyweight passenger cars. [:D]

Tomorrow I guess we will have to find a Big Boy, just for Mookie. [:D] [;)] [:D]

I wonder if Chris is going to furnish us any squirrels for some stew? He can keep the "hat" though. [:D] [:p] [:D]

Why is there ketchup on the ceiling? M I K E Y [}:)]




UH,since it's starting to get cool over night,didn't you turn off the ceiling fans[?][:D][}:)]

I know of a recipe that is interesting to make; it's called a Mad Dash. First you put oil in a pan and than you put some potatoe wedges in. Add a little seasoning and then you serve they are crispy brown. When your mother comes home and sees the mess you made in the kitchen, you run like blazes hence the name Mad Dash.

I could go for a popsicle right now[:)].I used to put potato chips on my hamburgers when I was a kid at camp.Once when I was cooking hamburgers,I thought it would taste better with some BBQ sauce cooked into the meat.It didn't work. The meat all fell apart so I ended up with a great tasting mess.Come and get it,it's on the stove now[:)].

Ice wines are nice, but very expensive! I'm not sure they are worth the price. I'll stick to my California grapes. For taste and value there is no match in the world!
