AMEN to the weekend! I love the 3 day variety especially when I get paid for one of them!
Any reason for using the horn staccato style? I heard a CN this morning that sounded off in that fashion. 8 or 9 short, sharp blasts.
Usually it's a warning for anyone (or anything thing) to get off (away from)the tracks.
Although around here about three blocks from the house on the NS main line, when
two trains pass each other, they seem to have a "running conversation"! At least 15+ blasts on the horn from each train.
Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!

AND YOU THINK THE DINER'S FRIDAY FISH FRY IS BAD!!!!!!!
Don't think I want to go here!!
Good afternoon, folks! For our lunch today, we have MEXICAN FIESTA DAY!
Today's menu includes tacos, burritos (beef, bean, and beef/bean/onion), enchiladas, quasadillas, tamales, shredded lettuce with onion and tomatoes, refried beans, Spanish rice, etc.
For desserts, we have all the regular dessert menu items: chocolate cake, white cake w/white icing, yellow cake w/caramel icing, and the usual cobblers: apple, cherry, blueberry, blackberry, peach and strawberry; and the following pies: chocolate, apple, peach, cherry and pecan.
Also just finished replenishing the iced tea, lemonade, fruit punch, grape Kool-Aid, Tropical Punch Kool-Aid, and brought in more Gatorade tanks.
So, sidle on up to the warmer bar, fill your plates, and if you wish, head on out to the patio, or grab a table or booth here inside the DD/CS.
My father often enjoyed sliced tomatoes sprinkled lightly with sugar (more of a treat before the advent of the "5mph tomato"), a delight I still occasionally partake in, but one which led to an amusing anecdote...
My uncle, a sheriff's deputy at the time, stopped by the house one summer Sunday afternoon to join us for our usual Sunday afternoon barbeque. Now, to ease the application of the sugar to the sliced tomatoes, we kept a separate salt shaker filled with sugar. Uncle Jerry, eager to enjoy his freshly grilled burger, grabbed what he thought to be salt, along with the pepper, to season the morsel. We offered to grill up a fresh burger for him, but he toughed it out....
Larry Resident Microferroequinologist (at least at my house) Everyone goes home; Safety begins with you My Opinion. Standard Disclaimers Apply. No Expiration Date Come ride the rails with me! There's one thing about humility - the moment you think you've got it, you've lost it...
Good Tuesday morning, all! Another nice, pleasant evening around here last night. Slept fairly well. Mudchicken, when I could eat tomatoes, I'd always put a little bit of salt on them. (Are there any tomatoes, w/out seeds?!?! I'd love to eat some tomatoes.)
Cannonball, thanks so much for your kind words. And you're right: those tests yesterday were no picnic! Usually, getting stuck to have blood drawn, doesn't bother me. But yesterday, it hurt like heck!!
Now, on to nicer things: coffee is ready, as well as fresh juices, tea and lemonade made and ready. On the warmer bar this morning: bacon, sausage, biscuits, sausage gravy, bagels, scrambled eggs, bear claws, and cantaloupe and watermelon chunks.
You all have a great morning, and I'll see ya after Produce Tuesday is over.

I've seen one or two of them in museums, but never flown in one of those.( DC-3s another story, I don't get sick when flying, but DC-3s...............tail draggers!)
I do have a few hours in "Fixed Wing" Aircraft, but most of my time has been
