Speaking of "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Poka Dot Bikini," my bro has that on a CD, with "Don't Worry, Be Happy," "The Witch Doctor," "Purple People Eater," "Does Your Chewing Gun Lose its Flavor," and a few more.

Well, what about something along the lines of "The Engineer's Breakfast", or "The Pennsylvania Special?" A name that doesn't say "Creamed Chipped Beef" or "S O S." Kind of makes it more interesting. Or, it could be served on a thick piece of texas toast (toasted so it's nice and brown) and call it "Beef on a Brick."[:p]
Yeehaw, it's about to rain here! I like the rain!
I feel life making some Boston Cream Pie, anybody else want some?

Howdy all, I'll take a #4(I eat like a rhino), with a nice strong cup of cappacino, french vinilla flavor. Not to much exciting going on around here right now, been raining forever though, and I was hoping to go on a bike ride too. There's a UP/run by WSOR crew ballast train in Rock springs right now, just heard him on the scanner. I don't have much to do right now, but I might go work on my model scratchbuilding project for the contest one of the MR forum members is holding, but for now I thought I'd come keep you people company.

Mook, your breakfast casserole sounds real good!! I'll have a helping, please, with
black coffee (and a glass of ice water, please)!!

Locomutt was sitting next to his grandfather (now deceased) when that song first
came out. They were in a car, chasing down family history, looking for people who
would know their family. Grandfather's reaction to the song:(quote) "DAMN! They put
something like THAT on the radio!!" (quote) : He was a minister!

Just put the coffee on, killed a few flies that accidently got in when someone left the back door open and want to look at the paper - I am sitting on the sports page, Joe - reading it as we speak! Be done in a minute.

A lot of us have tomorrow off, a lot of us are off every day. Joe's Matt has a birthday on Monday - he will be the big 3. So early Happy Happy to him.

Breakfast casserole - a heart attack in a pyrex dish - our special today. It is yummy, but you will want to schedule a nap afterward.

Wow, I don't think I have ever found so many people that like creamed chipped beef. Or, yes, SOS, as it was called in the Navy. I learned that from my grandfather about 11 or so years ago, when I was just a lad. Only afew of my friends from school like, or even know what it is. Well, enjoy!

Black coffee for me, and something cool: tuna salad sandwich, and icecream: too hot and humid today for me. And it's not officially summer yet.

TrainFreak409, I LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEEEEE chip beef on rice. Especially with just a little tiny bit of brown sugar on top.

Yesterday was another exciting train day for me. The WSOR ran a inspection train up on the line the past three days, they stayed overnight in another town further down the line Monday night, and stayed here in town Last night. The left about an hour ago, I heard them leave on the scanner. I got some good pictures for the WSOR calender contest. You get 500 bucks for getting the cover photo, 250 for getting the inside cover photo, and $100 for each month. I hope I get one of them. I'd love to spend the money on another engine.

Well looks like S O S will have to be added to the Diner's menu since it seems to be such a "hit" with the Diner's customers. But you know we can't call it S O S, we need a nicer name than that. [;)] If you know what I mean. [:p]

Well Duchess got me up at 9 am. So another short nap, pretty much my usual. [:(] Now you see why coffee is such a necessity for me. As I have said before, black, hot, just the way God intended coffee to be consumed. [;)]

<yawns>

Yall have a good day. [8D]

I just had Tomato soup. In a short while it will be bedtime. It is just after 330 am here.

Is it safe to come out now? Anyone remember the song about "banging in the kitchen, banging on the pot and pans? [;)] Well the number 10 cans make great drums. [;)]

Well I think I will turn in soon. [^]

Later guys and gals. [:)] [8D] [:D]

I'm really surprised, that ;that many people know what S.O.S. really is!


P.S. I REALLY like the chipped beef!
Jim, CW will join you for the Tomatoe soup,she loves it!
