CS,
We always "nuke" bacon around here, It is easier. Especially with "Turkey" bacon,which is about all we buy anymore.

Joe,

Tell Matt he can have pancakes anytime he wants them. With or without
strawberries. He can even have them with Mrs. Butterworth's Syrup if he
wants.

Hey people!!

Got some FRESH corn on the cob today. We'll boil it on the range (stove) so that Carl
can be sure to get some. Along with anyone else who's in a hurry to get to or back to
work. Also have plenty of tomatoes!!

I'm normally a Pepsi person, but will gladly buy the Diet Coke with lime (they tried it with lemon, and that stuff was awful, but they got it right with the lime). I don't think it comes in two-liter syringes, though.

Diet with vanilla...good stuff, no matter who puts it out.

Try the Diet Vanilla Coke - it's better. You are paying for all that fun time spent in archives, aren't you! Now you have to work to make it up!

Noah [8D]

I can't remember what I paid for my first Proto 2000 E8/9 but it was something like 85 dollars. The next two were like $95 dollars apiece, but at least they were new.

Certain models of certain railroads are very hard to find. If I see an engine with Frisco on it I usually try to get it. Model runs are limited in number, well some are anyway, and if you don't get one when they first come out you are just out of luck.

I hope you had it insured.

Until its replacement arrives I just finished my cake from home. So I will be more than ready when the replacement arrives. [:p] Don't send any ice cream tho, it doesn't travel to well. But feel free to send nuts, and butterscotch topping. [;)]

Sorry Mookie: didn't have chicken tonight. Walt had spaghetti and I ate a bologna
sandwich. That's all I wanted. Not sure yet what's on the menu for tomorrow.

You got any ideas?

Well Jim, she didn't get much acompliched anyway, as somebody left the refrigerator open and she started drooling all over the dishes she had just "cleaned" in her own way. By the way glad your back around here, things were getting caotic in more ways than one!

I wouldn't be suprised if they only relese them once an a while, as they usually are fairly expensive. This was the cheapest one at the show. He was asking 45, but I asked if he'd take forty, but I should have asked 35 first, as he was pretty quick to take 40.

[#ditto] on the coffee, Mookie.

How about some pancakes and bacon this morning? Have some turkey bacon which
is really GOOD. Especially for those of us who are concerned about the C word.

Dinner was good, but no baked potatoes (they take too long) or corn on the cob (not in store). Had a fresh spinach salad with the burgers.

I don't worry much about the C word, since the medication appears to have things nicely under control. Those will probably be the only beef I'll have for about a week, though.

I spent about 60 buck yesterday, including my new bueaty a really nice E8/9 model made by Proto 2000, a division of life like. Runs like a bueaty.

I have 3 of the Proto 2000 E 8/9s all in Frisco paint. [;)] [:D] It is good that you grabbed one while you could. It tooke me almost 2 years to get my first one, and it was second hand but supposedly never used and still in the original box. The guy told me they bring them out about every 5 years or so. A year ago Christmas I found the other 2 and had them set back until I get get there for them. I think they do the limited runs on purpose to create more demand for them so when they bring them out they sell like hotcakes.
