As punishment for my last poll. I was told to not log on from work. So it’s been 10 hours since I logged on. I kept reaching for the mouse and eventually had to remove my Mongo screen saver.
This place is addicting.
When the shakes stop, I’ll start cruising the posts.
MR needs to give us a patch.

ROFLMAO!!! Chip you are definately one of the main reasons I hang around here so much. Was the “punishment” delt out by yourself, your wife, Bergie, or …?
Glad you managed to find a way to get back to the forum.
Good Work man you cc-c-c-c-c-c-c-an d–d-d-d–d-d-d–d–do it. Ke--------e-e-e-e–e-ep trying.
Good luck! Forums can be addictive like cocaine…
Carefully remove the mailing label from this month’s issue and apply to the appropriate region of your body.
Upper Extremities - Access or permission to run, build or type about a model railroad has been denied or severely restricted.
Lower Extremities - Time, family or access restrictions have prevented your planned or desired railfanning outing from taking place.
Upper lip or cheek - The wife, significant other or co-workers refuse to listen to any more railroading conversations.
Forehead - Thoughts of things not railroad related have cluttered your mind or demanded an attention level that prohibits more important musings.
Chest (Left side) - Effective when you really feel you have to get something done on the pike but your heart just isn’t in it today.
Buttocks (Either Side) - Possibly a necessity when driving home from the LHS and the register tape bears an amount that far exceeds this month’s mortgage payment.

IF you center the patch, it is good for curbing the urge to move all the ties on a flex length .005 closer so as to get an extra tie in every 2 feet to match your prototype.
dwRavenstar,
That is one of the funniest posts I’ve ever read! [(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D]
Thanks Pennsy [:)]
If it even came close to being as funny as Chip’s description of his journey into NJ I’d feel like I’d reached a very high plateau.
There was one application that I’d not listed (Aside from the one Mouse offered). You can put the patch over your glasses when you’re reading the forum and you just can’t see the sense in any of it. Luckily the least often employed use, according to a now long ago deleted poll. [}:)]

You get time off for good behaviour, Mouse. Two days for every day “served” while awaiting trial, just like in real jail (gaol, up here in the coool nooorthhhh). [:D]
If you desist all day Monday, we’ll call it square. Deal?
The problem was I got stuff done and my wife noticed.
I hate it when reality sets in.
cold turkey?..I thought you were just a turkey!..LOL…sorry about that chip…you left yourself WIDE open for that one…yes it is tough to be away for too long…I had to go all of last week when my sister -in-law and her daughter were visiting without the forum…i’d try to sneek into the computer room and immediately was summoned back by my better half for some inane honey do …honey? honey? come here honey!..you would think i was a bee or something…(I wouldn’t make a good polygemist…three women in the same room gaggel’in like a bunch of wild banjees can drive a man insane) then we had to visit all the sites and attractions in the area…that meant…you guessed it!..designated driver…no trains either!..( i did manage to acquaint myself with many of the bars in our area because I draw the line at standing there with the three of them…shopping)…kind’a wish my relatives would stay home more often…[:D]…chuck
Ah, Chip. You’re going to blow it for all of us! You’ve got to learn to manage the wife’s expectations.
You are a bigger man then me!
Hey, shouldn’t this be part of the “Something else a Spacemouse can’t do” thread?[:D]
Now that’s funny right there.
The second day was easier thatn the first. I still found myself grabbing for the mouse a couple times.
I still want to know who imposed this “punishment” on you. You know there are laws concerning Cruel and Unusual Punishment even in Pennsylvania! [:D][;)][;)]
Good point! The supreme court could do a lot to whoever put this on you [;)].
As I recall the methods employed in my previous home state (or Commonwealth better said) of Pennsylvania it seems Space Mouse had earlier suffered even crueller and more unusual punishment by enduring a winter journey into New Jersey. [:O]
dwRavenstar
ROFLMAO! But that was self inflicted…[;)][;)][;)]
Man, you guy’s are meciless! Those poor folks in New Jersey can’t help it that they’re next to New York![:D]
And I still think this should be part of the “Something else a Spacemouse can’t do” thread?[:o)]
