I have been having a good laugh tonight reading some of these last few posts. I was just thinking, maybe zardoz and I could combine the Humor Thread and the Diner/Coffee Shop. We could call it "The Coffee Humor Shop" or "The Humor Coffee Shop". [;)] [:D]

I just had some Cream of _____ Soup. Remember I can't say "it" because someone doesn't like it. But I do so I will eat it for both of us.

The 3985 is out of state now. We also had the circus train here over the weekend. It was the "Red" unit. The way it was parked I just couldn't get a good shot of it. One thing that really should out to me this year was the number of "dishes" that the train had. The passenger cars are made so that each car can carry two families. I don't think that you can go from inside one family unit to the other one without going outside and around the car to do so. That is just my guess, I really have not been inside one. Each car toward the end of the train anyway had a "dish" for satelite TV reception. I don't know if the dishes come off for travel or are mounted permanently. Maybe someone else knows the answer to that.

Well I have to go now. The engine is runing out of steam and I still have to stop by the humor thread. [;)]

We may share our strawberries, if we can pick enough tomorrow. It requires a trip into Indiana for us (and maybe we'll have time to come home via Dolton and Blue Island!).

Sister Mook, I'm already "down" to skim milk, and only on the cereal in the morning. It may surprise you to learn that I've gone months without ice cream, and even longer without cheese on my burgers. However, if everybody else has pizza, I'll join in.

Jim,

You mentioned that you prefer chicken & noodles to chicken & dumplings. Over the
last several days with my teeth, I've had to eat nothing but very soft food. Last night,
Paula got me a Banquet turkey & dressing dinner. I usually don't eat the mashed
potatoes, but I did last night. And the peas were very soft.

Tonight, it looks like it's going to be Denty Moore's chicken & noodles for me. And
she has stocked up on Chef Boy Ar Dee's mini ravioli for me.

Jim, I've subbmitted one picture to Rail Pictures.net, and they excepted it, but I tried several others and they didn't like them for completely silly reasons. I'm going to probably submit the one I sent you from last night's train later, but we'll see.

I love my milk, have at least a nice tall glass a meal, if not two, I can't live without it. I still think we ought to buy a cow, might save us some money in the long run.

Local was here again last night, really early too. I got some really nice photo's. They had one car they had to set out because of a problem. The part that holds the airhose up by the coupler broke. I heard them say on the scanner that they were going to take it home, but then the conductor remembered the new rule that they can only fix break equipment til they can get it to a place to set out, which is what they did. Now I'm waiting to hear a MoW crew on the scanner down there fixing it.

I'm already older than I or most of my family/friends thought I'd be. Who has time for milk when there are so many hardworking brewers out there that are trying to put their kids through school!

Besides I eat cheese on just about everything. It's just milk in a glass I don't like. Milk products I eat all the time....daily.

Congrats Carl. That losing weight business is tough.

It is officially summer, so we must eat lighter. Don't want to drag a lot of heavy food around all day - so we will have fresh fruit, assorted dry cereals and whole wheat toast for breakfast. Coffee/Tea or Milk. Skim milke, that is. Yummy! [angel]


Doesn't sound very Atkins friendly......

I'll take steak and eggs, no hash browns and a side of bacon...heck and one of ham too.

and coffee please ..strong hot and black ..........milk.........yuck......homey don't do milk....things fermented inside cows.....

Dan - bet you drink water and guess what fish do in water!

Dan,

I'm the same way: for me to drink plain milk, it has to be so cold, it's almost frozen!
But I love to drink buttermilk!! So, give me a big ole glass of buttermilk, with a
grilled cheese on whole wheat toast, please.

Lactose intolerant huh[?]

Actually join the club,I dont' do milk anymore.


It's not that my body can't handle it.....I have garbage can stomach.....

It's my taste buds that can't. Some time around the age of 14 or so, I just lost the taste for milk. If that's all there is, I'll drink it, but it has to be cold, cold, cold. Milk products...cheese, ice cream, sour cream....I love..they don't bother me at all, I just don't like drinking milk.

...Jen, by coincidence there was a '37 Buick in the group I mentioned above...and the only difference [from '38], would be minor chrome and such....and I too remember the little square seats in back...[in a coupe]. Believe they folded to make room for hauling things. I never collected any antique autos but very much appreciate looking at them and talking to their owners, etc....The fellow with the '49 Chev and I were really on the same page in our conversation that it was scary....but fun. But as you can see from my name...used on the forum here I do have a collection of model cars....and reaching back into that era....

White walls about 4" wide....and the interior was mostly original and really nice. Just new floor mats had been installed. So I imagine the little stove bolt of 216 ci shoud still be in pretty good shape.
Q - I watch a lot of the old cars drive around Lincoln. Lots of nostalgia around here. I rode around in the back of a '38 Buick as a kid - with jump seats instead of a back seat. Perfect for two little girls to play house in! I didn't like it when they did away with the old whitewalls, but now that I am many years past them, I don't see what I ever thought was cool about them. Ah memories!

Mutt, they were barbecued ribs, and very good. Three freights went through in the hour or so we were there, too. Unfortunately, my five-pound weight loss was partially negated...
