PC: Thanks for the photobucket link. Take a look at the signature.
I also got a new avatar. It’s football season, time for a little Jason Witten, my favorite player, and who I try to be like on the field. No one has knocked my helmet off though… If you’ve heard of the Cowboy injuries, apparently Romo actually might play this sunday. Nobody knows…
Hoople; Good to see ya, especially as I need a hand with my Football pool ever since I got home from sea I have been taking a real a kicking! Lisa was picking my choices before and was getting 100%
Maybe Morgan can give me pointers as well[:I] Please!!!
Evening Gang: Well we had a good time tonight. We went to our favorite German resturant and had a ball. If any of you are in Ft Worth go to the Eldelweisse and Tell Bernd that I sent you. He is one fine fellow and puts out very good food and a fine show.
I do use word when I have a bunch of things to say or many replys. Most of the time I just make it quick and use the reply. The problem seems to have been fixed. There is now a line down the right side of the reply box and the line is doing what it should do.
Fergie the diner looks good. So who is that in there?
Thank you to all for the annervesery wishes. I really hit the jack pot with Mary Ann. I must say that when I saw her coming down the isle I was really sure that I had the ONE. Tomorrow we’re going to the Gaylord Texan Resort for the night. Mr Clark gave us a gift card this spring for doing the train show. It’s a swank place that we would not go to otherwise. I’ll see you all Sunday if I don’t get to a puter tomorrow.
I’ve been so busy applying for high schools lately. I don’t think I’ve had a good nights sleep in about three weeks. But nonetheless, its good to be back.
Today I turned 14. While my family didn’t seem to notice (though we had celebrated a few weeks earlier the same time as my grandfather aunt and sister) my friends did. Its good to be closer to driving…[:-,]
Go Bucs, Bulls, Gators, and Rays BEAT BOSTON!
Tomorrow my parents and I will go to see the USF Bulls play Syracuse. My mom’s boss had box seats but he gave the tickets to us.
Oh no, You don;t want advice from me. Try Sawyer. He actually plays. From where I come from, Football+Pool=Senior guys embarrassing themselves as they sink like rocks. I know nothing of the sport.
Diner lookem’ good.
Happy Anniversary Paul.
Jim: Nope, I don;t have the link. I nwever anticipated it going away…
Sawyer … I hope your cramps go away soon and your does well next game.
JP …Good to see you in the diner.
Lee … The stools was a neat idea for a gift.
Fergie … I like that diner.
Paul … Happy Anniversary to you and May Ann!
Mark … I hope the dance was enjoyable.
Jim CG … Any progress at the club layout?
Duke … who woke you up?
Morgan … I hope there are some good deals for you at the train show.
C&O Terry … Praying for your health.
PPC … You really do like stirring things up, don’t you?
Sad news from here. Our good friend at church still has cancer after all that surgery and chemo.
More sad news. A real tragedy. At a home in the rural lower corner of our county near Fort Campbell Army Post, four family members were stabbed and their house set on fire. One survived. Dead are a 5 year old boy and two teen age girls. Senseless.
Morning all boy new web hosting and new dinner can we aford all this I gues with the prices flo charges we can [wack] up the back side of my head sorry flo .
Fergi Have you heard from Teffy scince the last huricane and if so hows he doing?
This is my first stop in scince the new web hosting. Seems to be coming together fine I’m finding things are getting added little by little as now can find colors and fonts which I didn’t see the first couple of days. Now if I can just get that spellcheck to work on this putor lol.
It’s 53 and clear. High today should be in the upper 70’s and it will be partly cloudy.
Did a little work yesterday with changing out some of the structure lighting. Also did some work on a pedestrian bridge that crosses over the tracks. It’s a Model Power copy of a Faller kit and doesn’t have the fine detail of the of the more expensive European manufacturer. On the other hand it will give my people a safe way to cross the tracks. It’s not handi-cap friendly though. Had a slight interruption yesterday when the power went out. Turned out that a tree behind my parents property fell over on the lines. The power was out about 45 minutes.

Mark: the pool works like this: You pick a winner and a loser for each week, Can’t pick a team second time regardless if you chose them to win or lose last time so once you’ve used a team that’s it! You’re allowed one “by” for lose and win and you get two points for every right pick. And here is my choices up to last week. By the way it all went down hill after I came home from sea and started to do the picks myself. Should’a let Lisa continue but she said it was “My Pool” and I would have to work for it!!!
It’s a beautiful sunny Fall morning here in the mid 'Lantic region, which for me means honey dues and no model railroading. Later I’ll be taking my 10yr-old to a soccer game and while that’s going on, I’ll try contacting a group of my fellow Alabama railfan friends from the coffee shop across the street. They’re known as the Alabama Rail Gang [ARG], and they’re having a meet in front of the Irondale Cafe [where the movie Fried Green Tomatoes was filmed]. I’ll be calling one of them from my cell phone and he’ll put his phone on “speaker” mode, so it’ll be like a conference call between me and all the 'Bama guys. Gotta love this 21st-century technology!
Zoe, I’ll have a vegetarian omelette with extra tomatoes and green peppers. [hey Cape Jim - at what website do you find all those pics of the food you’re ordering?]
Jeff, your right about that! It makes a world of difference being able to have the headlight stay on even when a train is parked. Best of all, now I can easily hostle my locos in my engine terminal - something that’s nearly impossible for me on plain DC.
Duke, it was only a matter of time. I saw too many good conversations on this side to stay away for much longer. Hope you and your fellow Michiganers are doing OK in these troubled economic times…
Fergie - that’s a fine looking diner. I suppose you’ll be putting a few LEDs under the roof?
Garry - That cancer’s nasty stuff. A close friend of my wife’s has been undergoing a series of
Wow, What can I say! Congratz to say the least. DCC [wow] As to the Train Room Computer small steps small steps. I maybe looking down the road at that when we replace our present Computer, which is presently about 7 years old. Whether or not it will have the right stuff to drive signals and CTC functions is something I will have to look at. Then again a Laptop might also be a possibility. Yes Son number one is looking at University for next year. I’m hoping he can keep his average going so he will be eligible for scholarships. The kid is a heck of a lot smarter than his old man was for sure! And Brass aquisitions have all but ceased on the MESS due to lack of fiscal restraint during our trip to Toronto last week[:-^]
I’ll second that. I love me some biscuits and gravy!!! Now with me having a southern accent, people up here just love when I say biscuits. I don’t know why. Dang Yankees [8D]
I am going to start on some tree making today, and maybe work on my scrap yard some more. Ok guys, I will need some tips or if you have the topics saved. I would love to see them.
I think Aggro had a way to make some great trees.
A good cheap way for a fence (chain link). I was thinking with the bridal vail. My wife works at a craft store and I could use here discount,
I can do the tree trunks, but I bought some filter and I don’t wanna ruin it.
