Despicable Train Set

[Tom Dempsey]

Have you gone out and met those anyone's, they're all idiots!

The fact that anyone spends money on this drivel boggles my mind.

If ya wanna talk "drivel," oh man, I could suggest quite a list fer ya, but such yammering was not part of the original poster's intent, I believe. Sooo I'll cut the messin. Can I just mention "Mary Poppins," though. Ugh!

(HI, Wayne.)

Which drivel are you referring to specifically?

Really?

BTW, the sequel should be out later this year.

What's your beef with Miss Poppins?

What's your beef with Miss Poppins?

She nauseates me.

You're not taking your medicine with that spoonful of sugar.

Wayne, sorry. My use of "unsolicited" is correct. I did not ask for a scriptural lesson whilst discussing (by title) a train set, hence it is unsolicited.

Second, I refer to the film referred to in the advert, Despicable Me (and Despicable Me 2) in my comments about the social messages. You are speaking to a different film than I am and not the one referred to in the advert.

Its all fine, because I really erred in posting here (or reading, for that matter) in the "Lounge", something I told myself I wasn't going to do anymore. Now I remember why.

As to the other question, no you didn't miss it. It's due up on the May issue.

Yes, but, Sarge, I always look for your moniker when perusing the various threads here. Your perspective is often quite unique and a pleasure to read.

You have the last word Sarge, I enjoyed the exchange of thoughts.

Thank you for the heads up, I am looking forward to the May issue (my latest issue is February.)

In reference to Mary Poppins. Did not like the movie or story at all.
However Julie Andrews is a long time favorite.
I admit to having strange tastes in many thing; movies, books, music-oh,anything at all.
I am also glad that I do not need to explain why to anybody. My main reason is because fun is involved.
That is the same reason I am a user and fan of MTJ. I don't care what others think of MTJ or me.
Hmmm. Seems to be some thread drift here.

...snip... Julie Andrews is a long time favorite. ...snip...

Her best role was in My Fair Lady. That was the first lp record that I got; a gift from a radio station program director that Dad knew. I was probably the only twelve-year old that knew all of the songs (and could sing most of them; at least to myself) from that long-running Broadway play. Professor Higgins (Rex Harrison) has a really great line in the song "Why Can't the English":

"Arabians learn Arabian with the speed of summer lightning. And the Hebrews learn it backwards; which is absolutely frightening!"

Note that I found a record of the movie sound track with Audrey Hepburn; she could not hold a candle to Julie Andrews as Eliza Doolittle!
