Maybe to them, these 3 or 4 would regularly attack and belittle other's opinions without provocation. At times I would use the same style of snarky commenting I employ here on them.

I just switched meds this weekend and I have felt like HELL.
I know it's an adjustment period but I feel like I'm drunk on them.
My head has been so dizzy and it's making me feel nauseous.
I got up this morning and I wanted to walk straight, to the bathroom. Instead I wound up crashing into the dresser...LOL

She said to give it a week, but I'm not sure I can function like this all week at school. I hope this adjustment period isn't very long.
Synthroid 225mcg.

Cool locomotives. I darned near interviewed for a conductor position with BNSF railroad. The hours and commute would have been annoying. I would have if I was 10 years younger.

Aren't you a pretty young dude still? The odometer just rolled over 45 for me recently.

That's how we roll in Canada.


No, at the end of the line they use a siding to run around track so they don't have to shove the entire train in reverse.

Did you like the whistle? lol

I had to sleep in that caboose one chilly May day. lol
Back story, please.

[quote=Magnatomicflux;36497384]We also were restoring a 1941 Alco S1, and an S2. Both of those also worked here for the ETR.

And then we restored a 1911 Canadian National K5 Pacific, #5588, for static display at the river front.

Turn down your volume. lol

Oh, yeah, I agree. I'm not a train person, per se, but I love the way they sound.

I think that's the healthiest way to deal with them.

SD, you could do what I did, get a Degree in Psychology/Sociology/Criminal Justice then promptly go out and open your own Trucking Business.

PS ~~ My odometer is stuck at 53 for another 3 weeks.
