5-7 17:41:29 DAZed not me
5-7 17:38:05 rvn2001 Is anybody buying the America 250 car from Z Track Magazine?
5-7 17:36:02 GNFan So should it be "Six Flags and a Cut of Meat Over Texas"?
5-7 17:33:55 rvn2001 :D :D
5-7 17:33:36 stonysmith alternate name.... Brisket :)
5-7 17:33:25 stonysmith Sorry again mike... Texas used to be a country on it's own
5-7 17:32:45 rvn2001 True, Mike.
5-7 17:32:27 GNFan Conveniently, there's no such country as "Brisket". ;-)
5-7 17:31:26 DAZed Freedom Fries are cooked in brisket tallow. :D
5-7 17:30:39 GNFan ...which may come as a surprise to the Athenians!
5-7 17:30:07 DAZed Stony from the top ropes
5-7 17:29:56 DAZed whoa
5-7 17:29:43 stonysmith Correct mike.. they're cooked in Greece
5-7 17:29:33 ejshelton He has so much trivia in there I'm surprised he gets any more to fit
5-7 17:29:30 stonysmith ... and smells jusut as much
5-7 17:29:25 GNFan ...which was kind of silly, since french fries aren't French.
5-7 17:29:00 rvn2001 A rose is a rose by any other name...but still has thorns..
5-7 17:28:17 DAZed Mike, yes exactly. Or French Fries being named "Freedom Fries" when France was opposed to some of the post-911 war activities.
5-7 17:28:11 GNFan "Brain capacity reached. Please immediately remove any unnecessary memory."
5-7 17:27:38 rvn2001 It will fit...I just might not be able to find it in all the clutter in there.
5-7 17:26:58 GNFan I was about to guess that. Same as "frankfurters" being renamed "hot dogs" during WWI.
5-7 17:26:44 ejshelton You learned something Thom? Will it fit in that filled up brain of yours lol
5-7 17:26:12 DAZed I just read that as I was googling about the Marklin Mikado
5-7 17:25:43 rvn2001 I just learned something.
5-7 17:25:40 DAZed ha, me neither
5-7 17:24:42 DAZed (since Mikado referred to the emperor of Japan, the 2-8-2's were referred to as MacArthur's during WW-II.)
5-7 17:24:39 rvn2001 I've never heard it referred to as a MacArthur.
5-7 17:23:39 DAZed or a MacArthur.
5-7 17:23:34 GNFan That's what I figured.
5-7 17:22:57 rvn2001 That would make it a Mike (Mikado).
5-7 17:22:13 GNFan The loco is not identified, but it loks like a 2-8-2 (?)
5-7 17:20:34 DAZed or an explosion
5-7 17:19:53 stonysmith or spills out on the rails and causes slipping
5-7 17:19:28 rvn2001 Just watch to be sure that the sloshing in the tank car doesn't derail it..
5-7 17:17:53 DAZed tough crowd Thom
5-7 17:17:46 GNFan Being Marklin, to keep things from stalling, I''m runing well above scale speed. The oil in the tanker is being sloshed around on the curves!
5-7 17:17:15 rvn2001 Mikado?
5-7 17:17:06 rvn2001 Mikaod?
5-7 17:16:08 rvn2001 Is the steam locomotive a "Mike"?
5-7 17:15:28 GNFan But Doug asked. ;-)
5-7 17:14:58 rvn2001 I read it too, Mike :D
5-7 17:14:33 GNFan Oops, *Doug*.
5-7 17:13:51 GNFan It's a Marklin "regioanl" set, Thom. GN steam locomotive, gondola and caboose, plus a tank and box car.
5-7 17:13:49 ejshelton Figures,,,He should know your schedule by now....NOT
5-7 17:13:43 rvn2001 Thanks for upholding the tradition, Mike. I am running the usual 4 Z scale trains.
5-7 17:12:35 DAZed hi Thom
5-7 17:12:35 rvn2001 My neighbor showed up to borrow a tool.
5-7 17:12:26 DAZed What type of train are you running Mike?
5-7 17:11:54 ejshelton Hi Thom
5-7 17:11:51 GNFan *There's* Thom!
