One of the major western railroads reported that their container traffic was down by eleven percent a month or two ago. Liars, or what? 20 + U.P. locomotives are parked in a string nearby and have been for many months. Of course, they have thousands of the things!

There's a BSNF freight yard that's usually busy shifting well cars and containers that ties up traffic frequently in the 'hood. That is, it used to be. Now general freight is stored there. Eleven percent drop in container traffic? I don't think so, much of the Port of Seattle is idle lately. In a somewhat similar vein, the USDA reports a great wheat harvest is due this year. Horsefeathers, bread is gonna cost $7 a loaf for the good stuff soon enough.

Life might be easier if I expect to be lied to. Ya don't say?

Norbert the Narc was Fat Freddy and pal's nemesis? 'Twas a long time ago, not to mention the near infinite clouds from a Kontrolled Substance that interfered with clear hindsight.

Anyone know what "keep on truckin'" really meant? Not many of us are truckers as far as I know.

"Keep on trucking Mama truck'in my blues away."

Much the same as Keep mov'in down the road...":O}

As in, "hey you, no loitering?"

[cloasters]

'Loitering' is a funny sounding word.

Sure didn't expect Michael Jackson to die and I didn't expect that this news would hit me as much as it did. I had no idea that he was so miserable. Perhaps life was simply impossible for him. We will miss him. But he may not miss us.

Elite. Is that the brand of AMD hosting boards that used to be a great buy? But aren't good anymore? Hard to keep the details fresh after years of them.

Anyone else a Len Deighton fan? I swear, I think he re-wrote every page of his first novel The Ipcress File one hundred times. Love the guy's work.

Then crawled back to Herr Burns through the doggie door marked "Supplicants."

After painfully providing all of the details twice and qualifying for the Class Action suit against the lousy HDD's that IBM pharted out before their abandonment of consumer hard drives I didn't receive one penny. Garshk, I sure hope the lawyers cleaned up!

[Daniel ~]

Count on it! That's a major reason Corps commit crimes, they have a thousand lawyers to feed who NEED to push the envelope to justify their existence.

First, kill the lawyers. Works well--until you really need one! Got the first two seasons of Boston Legal(I've missed most of them on the air) recently. Keeping the bad people out of jail is annoying sometimes! Nonetheless, it's a great show. I need the laughs.

[cloasters]

Curb Your Enthusiasm? I'm not laughing at all. Does the show grow on you or simply bore you to extremis?

[cloasters]

Perspective? But I have astigmatism!

So whaddaya want, a medal?
