Stacking our boards with 24,041 posts on every conceivable subject where you can spread Mica hate is an improper use of MJ. Obviously, if you run for his seat again, anyone searching anything about Mica, is bound to land on your pasted remarks. Goal accomplished?

Out of curiosity I did a quick search for Fayeforcure and Mica using the metrojacksonville search function,............and low and behold I found an astronomical 16 results out of a total of 996 posts made by Fayeforcure ( NOT 24,041 posts as Ock erroneously indicates),.......

Well, I just love it when big guys over-estimate my impact!!!!! ;D

And, Wow, I guess I was far more effective than I even imagined!!! 8)

Such an uproar by two moderators about 1.5% of my posts is obviously rediculous!!!

Oh, no, I don't use pictures like the big guy does  ;)

If HSR passes also will it share the convention center stop with Sunrail?

OCK'S Observations of the new CSX Sweetheart Deal...




"When one of the MJ boys became the new president of CSX, they immediately restored A railroad tradition!"






OCK, tried in vain to prevent them from allowing Faye to run the train.






They didn't realize until they plugged it in, that Europe, and the USA, use different electrical systems.






Florida had no idea that the new European train would come with it's own technicians. "Le Radiator  Messieurs, check Le Radiator! Oui! Oui! Franswah, it's obviously got no air in the tires!"






"Oy Vey! Some lady in car 3 needs a midol."






Bob and Ennis knew all along that a nuclear powered train was a bad idea.






"Under the new Transportation Incompetency Act, Mayor Peyton and JTA officials were immediately deported."






Mtrain swore he would never again look at a train photo, after his plan for the perfect railroad photograph went awry.






"Of course FDOT immediately declared the new train a huge success..."






Once again Florida allowed CUTR to influence the final decision on the train.




Just had to know if any of you can still laugh?
YIPPIE! Smile Y'all!

Ock, your extremist and grandiose thinking is well captured by the pictures and the subtexts  ;D

One thing was missing though,.............where was "Ock to the rescue"?

Any superman could have effectively prevented those disasters from happening, right?  :o

Was it "Faye in your way"?  ;)

Time to bury the hatchet. I'm over it.

Looking foward to my SAFE train rides in Europe soon.

Now THAT was funny Faye, ROFLMAO! Always been on the extreme, as in "Steal This Book." Guess the captions didn't explain all of this happened because they wouldn't listen to Lakelander, TUFSU1, (Another-5 Anom.) and Myself! HA! HA!  Extra funny to me because my personal dream life is usually very funny and in one dream, where I woke myself up laughing, I WAS a superhero... Get this... CAPTAIN CANOE! Must have been the Acid.

Have fun in Europa, if you get a chance check out the rails in Spain, only in a youthful lifetime have they gone from primitive railroads dating to the Spanish Civil War, to a modern Super System. Today, they are building the cars for Amtrak's Cascade Trains. Their super conventional trains are called TALGO. Say hello to Bosque for me. If your into New Age - Classical - Rock - Opera fusion, check out a group called B-TRIBE in Barcelona.

Hey Ock, I hope that was the Acid of yesteryears. Wouldn't like to think you're still doing that stuff  ;)

Thanks for the music tip, definitely like that music too. It's amazing how music unites us all. I will be going to a U2 concert in Miami in June, so eat your heart out!

Not that I'd probably give a flip, but yeah, all 23,503 acid trips were in long ago FRESBERG (Fresno) Wart of the World, and under the arm pit of the Great Frog!  A commune in a place called Dunlap, (near Yosemite) hiking the old Sugar Pine RR and tending a garden along Coarse Gold Creek. The creek BTW, where we would pan a tiny bit of color to buy the stuff we didn't grow... and OH BOY did we ever grow some shit!

Today, I wouldn't need it anyway, the VA sadly keeps me on a continuous "high", or I'm hurting too much. Anyway, to be honest, I always enjoyed it, so now that it's legal, it's taken on a life of it's own. If any of you ever get in that dreamy state of mind try these tracks:

Anyone hear about the monorails getting stuck in Disney? 3 of 4 were stuck, they were able to get 2 of the 3 moving to stations, but one could not and they needed to get the fire department to hoist a ladder to the train.

Of course Disney says they have "fixed" the problems, and life is "back to normal".
