Well not much happening in my neck of the woods today, have to be at w**k at 2 this afternoon, expecting delivery of my SD40-2 tomorrow, as of this morning, it was in NC and heading this way. Looks like I’m going to have to get my parent’s to bring all my old MRR stuff from their house that way I can have some track to at least build a loop to run my -2 on. Just hanging out at the house in-town today as I had to run and errand for the better half and well, there was no point to going back up to my land.
On the front of hunting, I got squat! I spooked one on my walk in and didnt’ see diddley doo doo the rest of the afternoon. Oh well, there’ still the rest of the month. Well, guess I’m going to be getting the rest of the stuff set-up now that we’re moved.
OHHH, and the first round is on me…y’all eat up!!!
Well, as the thread that I´d opened just disappeared by pure magic, this seems to be the new location of our Diner - so, again, a big n´ hearty [#welcome]
Evidently not… He locked the other one, and the old diner so we can’t leave a working trail to this one… Guess the move was made with CSX this time…[:-^]
Zoe my cup of coffee got spilled all over in the move, so can I get another cup of dark roast in a FGLK mug? Thanks!
Have to go out and deliver a few posters and check out the local dollar store to see if they have picture frames for certificates to be given out on Saturday at the NMRA Meet. So I’m gonna take my mug with and get to it!
I apologize from the bottom of my heart on this one y’all. I didn’t realize that Ulrich had hooked to the other end of the diner with a switcher too. Well this page and the next are on me. Ulrich please sir, have anything you want, I didn’t know we were both moving at the same time.
Ohh, I just checked on my SD40-2 here before I get ready to head into w**k and its in Doraville, GA (Atlanta area), so I might get it late this afternoon depending on how long it stays in GA before heading off to me, besides, Doraville is only about 3, 3-1/2 hours away.
Hey BAMA CSX and ULRICH: looks like “great minds think alike.” Kudos to ya both, even if the Kalmbach yardmaster did get a bit confused…[swg]
SAWYER: Yeah, getting clonked in the scrums just doesn’t sound like much fun. Sounds very British though… “ye, the laddie got hisself clonked in the scrums” (said in a Monty Python style, heavy Cockney accent).
Or not…
Having a zero motivation day… waiting for the next “winter weather event” to hit. Snowing already in Cedar Rapids, still have partly cloudy skies 35 miles to the east (Clarence).
Have a good, warm, SAFE rest of the day… Rerun and I will stop back in later for burgers. Looks like a good afternoon for a NAP!
I knew it was about time — we’re moving on here–what—every third week? We’re going to have to apply for federal aid to expand this switching yard if this keeps up—[:-^]
Got a bit of a break in my work here so’s I be restin’ up.
Chloe, I’ll have a RBF please----might as well set fer a spell----[swg]
A scrum is actually the way the ball is restarted after a stoppage other than a score or the ball going into touch (out of bounds). here’s a youtube video and another one
…maybe because you have a chap like this as a neighbour? LOL
RobbyP:
…I was thinking the frequency was increasing. The Diner XXI lasted 3 weeks, the trail is blocked further back than that using “bread crumb location”. Thought about trying to access an archive to check it. But I’d rather be mrr-ing! However, I did also wonder if we would be up to Diner version XLVI by the time Super Bowl XLVI rolls around? It could be a close call…The last two Diners lasted indeed 3 weeks and small change. SBXLVII is what? 54 or so weeks away? So Version XLI by then, at this rate…Hmmm, not so close after all![sigh]
Sawyer: The Youtube vids were helpful, especially in bringing us up-to-date! I see where StarTrek has pervaded this arena too, with the final scrum command by the ref being “Engage!” Also, the “Touch” Command gives a terrific opportunity for a Vulcan who happens to be playing Prop to administer a deft nerve pinch. [:o)]
Getting towards Dinner time, a nd Rosie-the-Dog, whose usual water dish is still missing after the storm (although the bird feeder that blew away in the same storm turned up today) is beginning to make noise. Chamber of Commerce tonight, so I may not be back in. TTFN.
Fairly dull day so far. Went down to my parent’s place and did some laundry. The Home Health nurse came by and reattached mt wound vacuum and redressed my foot then she changed the dressing on my central line. Antibiotic treatment continues though by mouth at this point. Looks like one or both of the rear brake wheel cylinders on my car are going out. I’m thinking about just having the rear lines blocked off. I’ve done that on a few other cars and drove them for years that way with no problem. Maybe later today I’ll get some of the junk cleared off the layout. Right now I’m just so tired.
Evening all. Chloe, I’ll take a bacon cheeseburger and a RBF, thanks.
I have practice tonight at 9:10 , but this rink is an hour away. So I have to leave here at 7… And I won’t be home till 11:30… Joy…
Question for the audience:
Say your girlfriend (of 3 weeks) is supposedly cheating on you, but she denies it. BUT, the person she is cheating on you with basically confirms it. Would you trust your girlfriend and stay with her, or would you trust your friends (and the evidence) and break up with her.
Cause this is happenning to my friend. Everyone knows that shes a, well, I can’t say it here but you know what I mean, but he doesn’t think she is and that she is cheating on him.
We’re all trying to convince him that she is, but he won’t believe it. Here’s the evidence:
She refuses to tell her parents that they’re going out.
She didn’t want to talk to him because she thought he was mad at her. He said he wasn’t, and asked why she was, but she refused to tell.
SO, what would you do???
Well, I have more homework, and I’ll catch up if I can get to it before practice. If not, then I will tomorrow after school.
