Jon, another nice reefer. It's amazing how many there were. I keep waiting for the Ballantine's one, but maybe there wasn't one or it's not that attractive.

Dennis, they sure bleat when they see you coming! Where did that sheep thing start anyway? I don't mean within the fiction, but in actuality. It must be somewhere back in the earlier Jungle pages, but I'm sure not going to look.

Pete, I hope you knew I was joking about the word veranda. It would be fine in that sentence.

Dennis, just wondering how things worked-out with the prototype Gomer?

Dennis, Sorry to hear about your pooch. Hopefully it's curable. My mutt, Pluto is approaching his 16th year and his health is rapidy declining.
Tramp, Yep, those Atlas reefers are addicting. I think what really sets the Coors reefer off is that quality ballast from BRENNANS!!!! :wink:

Pete, a nice Pennsylvania mug arrived today; I assume it's for D since the lads were drinking cans. Thanks for the other goodies. I'm getting quite a collection of Maine Central and Boston and Maine timetables, etc. Thanks again. You send out more gifts than anyone I've ever known.

The following is an exchange of correspondence between a customer and the Irish Railway Company

Gentlemen,

I have been riding your trains daily for the last two years, and the service on your line seems to be getting worse every day. I am tired of standing in the aisle all the time on a 14-mile trip.

I think the transportation system is worse than that enjoyed by people 2,000 years ago.

Yours truly, Patrick Finnegan
~~~~~~~

Dear Mr. Finnegan,

We received your letter with reference to the shortcomings of our service and believe you are somewhat confused in your history. The only mode of transportation 2,000 years ago was by foot.

Sincerely, Iarnrod Eireann.
~~~~~~~

Gentlemen, I am in receipt of your letter, and I think you are the ones who are confused in your history. If you will refer to the Bible and the Book of David, 9th Chapter, you will find that Balaam rode to town on his ***. That, gentlemen, is something I have not been able to do on your train in the last two years!!!

Yours Truly, Patrick Finnegan :D

Happy Monday, Kurt

one more

Living will

Last night, my wife and I were sitting in the living room and I said to
her, "I never want to live in a vegetative state, depending on some machine
and fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens just pull the plug."

She got up, unplugged the TV, and threw out my Beer :D

Jon, no wonder we stay on this side: too many geniuses with butter obsessions over there. NOW, let's drink some beer! I'm buying. Dennis, you in, brother?

Man, Jon! Frank really don't want you on the 3rail side. Is he sponsoring the forum, now? I don't see his name or company on the home page. :roll:

But on a lighter note, I'M IN. I'll have the biggest draft you can muster, and everybody gets a chip, on me.


Tramp, that's a beauty! But it's blocking what appears to be an heirloom clock. What's the story on the clock?
