maybe it shows... it'll be gone before long.

Such sleekness.
It looks like it wants to sprout wings and fly.

Ourcrazymodern? · 07-23-2009, 10:54 AM

Still feeling the lust,
embrazened by your mettle,
I've driven westward.

I love you.

ring · 07-23-2009, 11:00 AM

Mettle.
Such a fine word, you have there.

That lovely train Jet posted would probably have me there,
in no time flat.

I want a Disk!

BadNick · 07-23-2009, 11:42 AM

Jet's famous train is called the "Aerotrain". As a younger boy, I rode in one from Philadelphia to wherever it was...can't remember since I know I was heading to Toronto via train but the Pennsylvania RR Aerotrain only took me part way. In any case, at the time I was highly impressed by the swoopy design.

The reality was not quite as swoopy:
"...The plan was to develop a stylish, comfortable, high-speed train (top speed: 100 miles per hour) with low fares to lure passengers back onto the tracks. And with this new train being lightweight and fuel-efficient, the railroads should be able to return to profitable passenger service. General Motors was approached to create such a train. And its Electro-Motive Division came back with the Aerotrain. A futuristic blending of Fifties highway and railway technology (with maybe a little Buck Rogers thrown in for good measure), the Aerotrain fits right in with the GM concept cars of the period. It didn't take long for the trouble to start. It quickly became apparent that the Aerotrains were underpowered and prone to mechanical problems. Passengers missed the spacious comfort of standard streamlined trains, finding the downsized Aerotrain "buses" confining. And with the shortened wheelbase and air suspension, the ride was terrible at anything close to top speed. After only a year or so, Pennsy and New York Central returned their Aerotrains to GM. Thanks, but no thanks..."

A different transport:
I saw a similar type plane fly over this morning.

The sky is full of planes.
The EAA (experimental aircraft association) in Oshkosh will be happening soon.

ring · 07-24-2009, 08:57 AM

Ha! I've not heard that before. Humorous stuff.

If I had a cellphone, I would choose a ringtone that sounds like the old rotary phones,
I recall from childhood.

Jetée · 07-24-2009, 02:07 PM

To top the charts above 'WA', this must be shot to the moon.

Ourcrazymodern? · 07-24-2009, 03:06 PM

Consider me shot:
I experienced joy,
but there were blisters.

MexicanOnABike · 07-24-2009, 03:24 PM

i have nothing to add but i want to say that this is a thread i might not really post in that much but i do have a lot of post in and that is why i am adding another post to add to my long list of posting in this thread like the over 2000 posts i have in this thread like a few others before me as you can see in the listing for this thread and on that note right here and now i will go back to my regular life not in this thread with everyone else including the ones i previously mentionned in that list earlier in my post from this thread that i don't ususally post in anymore for reasons that i don't want to get into in this thread.....THREAD!

Ourcrazymodern? · 07-24-2009, 03:49 PM

If I could, then, laugh,
I would do so the same way:
you throw the ball well.

ring · 07-24-2009, 04:13 PM

Jet, I don't know what 'WA' means. edit: 'WA",
Is that 'other' thread that shall not be mentioned...zing, it clicked.

Sometimes I am very dense;
and other times you have to tie a rope to my ankle to keep me grounded.

@MOAB:
This sounds rather sad.

Your nothing to add was a large something.

A long bike ride can provide some peace and joy at times.

Peace and Joy to all!

Jetée · 07-24-2009, 04:15 PM

nobody shall mention 'WA' by name in this thread, for it is our rival (or at least it was last year... maybe management decided we have a new rival?).

ring · 07-24-2009, 04:18 PM

^^^^see above editito in my post.

Jetée · 07-24-2009, 04:22 PM

I know I had an idea to post something that may have been moving in nature in this thread, but my mind lost its image.

ring · 07-24-2009, 04:29 PM

My mind has halted to a grind;
a piece of rotting melon rind.

O' where O' where, can I find,
the monster on whom my brain has dined.

fun silly ditty I wrote in 1982

It could be a matter of looking at it sideways.
I achieve sucess with that, about 62.5% of the time.

Ourcrazymodern? · 07-24-2009, 04:29 PM

Why don't you call me?
I've been trying to call you.
You understand this.

My lying beneath
recognizes your essence
& it does want it.

Jetée · 07-24-2009, 04:39 PM

Man, people love not thinking at all and posting just one word... I don't understand it.

I'm still trying to remember what I forgot to post here, even though no one cares once it's done.

ring · 07-24-2009, 04:47 PM

I care,
and I frequently go back and read parts of this thread.

There are many gems within.

Ourcrazymodern? · 07-25-2009, 08:24 AM

Family jewels
included within this thing
glitter & gleam.

ring · 07-25-2009, 08:43 AM

Your Palindrome is showing.

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:31 AM

I saw this elsewhere... I felt inclined to experiment here...

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:33 AM

now should this work some?

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:35 AM

whoa, did you see what I did there? I'm revealing my trade secrets right before thine eyes (but hedgehogs, though, seem to look quite blind at birth)

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:36 AM

ho-oh, willing, and with zero interruptions, the throne could be usurped soon... (cute critters!)

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:37 AM

and so this onsluaght shall continue

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:39 AM

can you believe the multitudinalness? It's as mad as a March hare, wouldn't you state it as so?

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:40 AM

I once reign supreme as the master and decider of Doppelgänger divisions

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:42 AM

d'oh! I have misspelled the word "onslaught" previously... forgive my oversight, please.

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:43 AM

My reprisal:

onslaught
n.
A violent attack.
An overwhelming outpouring: an onslaught of third-class mail.

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:44 AM

and so ends the baby hedgehog story... what storybook shall be unveiled next, I vonder?

DaniGirl · 07-25-2009, 10:46 AM

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:50 AM

please try to upload your pictures securely, because if you solely use google and hotlink it, they will invariably never show properly, as exemplified by your image above, which is broken.

Jetée · 07-25-2009, 10:52 AM

ring · 07-25-2009, 12:16 PM

Perhaps she wanted to post an image of a dead one-eyed white square within a frame.

Unlikely, but possible.

I hope the next storybook is not full of too many reprimands,
but I fear there may be.

The Book Of Names For Your Baby Hedgehogs

The next best-seller coffee table book.

Ourcrazymodern? · 07-26-2009, 06:08 AM

You can't judge a book by its cover
& so I've chosen to be an open one:
Will you not read me while I'm righting?

ring · 07-26-2009, 06:10 AM

Right on, man.

Clark Kent · 07-26-2009, 08:03 AM

I still can't decipher how you do that. I'll study it further. Congratulations on what is likely the longest baby hedgehog thread of all time.
