Morning folks, sorry about that full size photo. I'm still new to this tablet thing. When I posted the reply, I was shocked, the image is huge! I assure you, I'm not trying to compensate for a lack of something.


You work in N Scale.... you are not compensating for anything.

Had an exciting morning. Went to get some gas from the corner market and was paying, when all Hell broke loose. Seems the guy behind me (name was Jim) was cheating on his wife. He was supposed to be out of town, and was taking his GF home and stopped to get some gas. But then along comes his wife to get some gas, too.

I’m standing there doing my pay thing, and the door barges open and a shrieking woman comes in. She’s screaming and digging in her handbag, and pulls out a .22 pistol. Now, I’m standing right next to “Jim” and I don’t like the idea of being shot, so I grab her arm and point it to the ceiling. I hold on, and she’s wiggling, and thank God she didn’t kick me.

Some of the locals that usually hang there, grabbed her, took the gun away, and escorted her outside, talking nice. All the time she’s screaming at Jim “Don’t you ever come home, ‘cause I’ll cut your f**king d**k off !!!”

Woof ! All I wanted was some gas. But how could you be so stupid as to go to your local neighborhoold gas station, that you know very well your wife goes to, and all your buddies are hanging out there every morning, and your teenie GF isn't eve'nt that hot, and just what the hell were you thinking, Jim? You deserve to get winkie whacked. You are too stupid to reproduce.




Exciting times in a small town, John. They'll be talking about this one for a few years.

Much less exiting, another angle on the bridge (hopefully the image uploads). I had to pull our an older camera (less pixels) to get it to upload.

Enjoy your weekend.






This one is worth quoting! Amazing detail work, John!

Germs don't worry me, like you said you can't see 'em. It's the stuff I could see that was grim!


You know, Martin, keyboards are pretty cheap to replace!

Fantastic work, John!

Don't worry about being OT in THE THREAD!!! There is no such thing here.

Besides, there are several N Scale fans here, even though my trains have been packed in the attic (2 different attics) now for 9 years.

I make plank on frame 18th century wooden scale model ships. Always thought we were THE **** hot modelers, till I saw Louisvillan's Diablo Canyon diorama. I am beyond impressed.

Ciao. John

Are you on anything to help ease the pain? I hope it lets up soon.

A step in the right direction, and pun intended (sorta). You get well, man.

They did, Glen. LOL Honestly, the kids run the show as a great learning experience. Each year, they go through a traditional ceremony to honor POW/MIA's by setting a table and place for them. It's moving.

You could watch TMTSNBN and maybe be so enraged as to distract you from the back pain... Just a thought!
