    John - no self respecting southerner would use instant grits to weather a laser-cut model kit! Apologies to My Cousin Vinny ;) Thanks for these pics, Jeffrey - I'm adding them to my wallpaper collection!

    Good luck CSX - keep that train budget going lol! Nothing going on here, but Lionel is apparently cancelling some things including the Hogwarts people pack I had preordered :( Oh well, more money for other stuff I guess. Good email talk with Sir James tonight and an on-the-run email from Doug...

    Hang in there CSX - sorry if I've made it harder to be good. I've been through this too. Dieting is easy - I've done it a 100 times. Hang tough, dude. A guy at work went to see the clone wars on a sneak preview showing and said it nearly ruined star wars for him. There is a gay version of...

    Jeffrey, check out http://www.woodlandscenics.com/ A1896 Farmers Market (HO scale) Three farmers and a lady customer. There are boxes of berries, apples, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes and more produce. Also, wooden baskets overflow with vegetables. One farmer has a sack of potatoes over his...

    That's a nice locomotive, Jeffrey! Love that KCS. I wish Athearn would make O gauge trains along with their 1/50 JD and Ford stuff. I was going to do drywall today, but instead we went out for a lunch where I had a big salad with tuna = very sensible, CSX :) Then, we went to the hobby store...

    Looks like a lot of dvds to me, Jeffrey! I've got a region free dvd player that automatically plays PAL or NTSC. It's just a cheap Philips player. They sell them all over the world, so the chips have a code that can be changed with the remote. You open the disc tray and enter a sequence of...

    Jeffrey and CNW, I ran into that big time with my lego collection before I switched to the O gauge trains. I had all those Harry Potter lego sets including the trainset (operating) and every kid that walked into our house had to take something apart and screw with it. :( They're all in tubs...

    Sci Fi movies/tv - I'm a big fan. We have the Star Trek movies and the next Gen series on dvd. I think we are missing a couple of the movies though. We have, too, man other sci fi movies like the Star Wars movies. Yes, the Star Trek cartoon series is out on dvd now. Jeffrey, I sent you a PM...

    Oh, maybe it was Pepsi Cola in the pic.... But, there was plenty of sweet tea. If we were sick, we got honey and vinegar, served hot by the tablespoonful. It worked, but I've never had it since then!

    Hey guys, sorry - storms hung around my house until bedtime, so just read some train magazines and hunkered down! TomPM - prayers for your foot too. Sweet tea is good for kids, Chief. I've got pics of me as a baby walking around with a baby bottle full of it - and look at me now, perfektly fine!

    Storms are rolling in here right now, so I just switched to battery - lightning and thunder! Prayers for Ozzy/Rusty/RIR for the best possible care and good results. Hope all are well - might be back online later....

    There is a recent track book I bought that compares all the different O gauge track systems and has a lot of info on gargraves too. This might have been based on the same article? Trackwork for Toy Trains by Peter Riddle.

    CSX - I think I just ordered that DVD a couple days ago - how is it? So I wouldn't "waste" the shipping cost, I also bought a truck for Thomas :-^ This was done for sound economic reasons, of course. HOT - heat index is like 105 outside, so I'm inside on the computer. Kidneys, man - Kidneys!

    Good work, Jeff! Had a spicy grilled catfish filet for dinner and then some icecream at Sir James' house, so I'm full. Hey, where is Laz lately? Oh, did he go on a trip too?

    Good morning - storm woke me up, but I had overslept anyway. Need to fix a toilet or just replace it, can't decide. I'll probably just do a fix on it - the supply column inside the tank is leaking so the toilet is draining off and on through the day. No leaks outside or anything though, just...
