ROW IS ON A ROLL!

Postby Seaboard Air Line Fan » Mon Feb 27, 2017 7:10 pm

According to O Scale Resource, Jay is taking over the track line from ProtoCraft so Norm can spend more time on car building and decals.

Sounds like things are looking up for Jay, Norm, and us modelers.

There's more to it than that so please read the blurb in the latest OSR.

BobD,

Thanks for the shout-out! Now all I have to do is figure out how to pay for it and get everything onto the website.

Sleep is overrated and maybe not as good for you as sometimes claimed..........

Boston University School of Medicine researchers found that adults who consistently slept longer than nine hours a day had a twofold increased likelihood of developing dementia, as well as a higher risk of having smaller brain volumes and poor executive function after 10 years, compared with those who slept less. The findings in the journal Neurology, based on data involving nearly 2,500 participants with an average age of 72, also showed a six times higher odds of dementia among those without a high school diploma who slept for more than nine hours daily.


This might explain some of the postings round here at times, :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Both are preset to 4:30am, although it looks like Lily is a bit slow :shock:

Larry, you must have missed the posts about thread drift!

Some drifts are deeper than others.

Your picture of Max is really great picture, shows a very relaxed but alert cat.

My cat, Genevieve, is preset for about 6:45, and has a "snooze" function,
pet her a few times and scratch her ears, and she'll go away for about a
half hour or so before she comes back. Then the process starts all over again! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I've gotten to the point that the process is semi-automatic and I hardly loose
any sleep over it--cat triggers the start, pet/scratch ears, she goes away, I roll over
and go back to sleep. Works every time! :D :D :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Works several times, until she gets in the "Feed ME!" mode at about 8:30.
But by then I am also getting close to the same hunger mode. :wink: So time to
get up and face the coffee and newspaper. Don't want to sleep all my retirement away! :roll: :roll:
Take care,
Wolfgang

Thanks Wolf...probably the best photo I've ever taken. Wish I could take train photos like that.

He's a good cat, but it's "hairball season" and I have to stay behind him or I'll slide across the floor on a slimy hairball :shock:, not a pretty sight!

The pro at the golf course I work at just got a kitten a few weeks ago. Named him Wrigley after the Cubs field. His grandad was a bigwig for Chicago & North Western. I'll have to find out his name.

He said once him and his mom were eating in a restaurant that had a RR themed decor. She looked up and said "That's my suitcase on the wall!!!" Sure enough it was hers when she was a little girl, still had the tags/stickers on it, that's how she recognized it.
