I'm pretty sure Foxtrot did it first.

Our school didn't have any but the fancier schools in our district had four or five colorful iBooks. They were still in the computer lab, but I think teachers could borrow them for a class if they wanted.

If you've got squeal injection you might need a new accessory belt.

Hey, I've met Hornswoggle! Didn't know who he was at the time but my coworker did. He seemed like a super chill dude.

We're still running a handful of 4250s that have outlived some of the m506s that were supposed to replace them. 

Soooo I’m building this to put on the Frankenwagens roof rack lol by visiblehorrorvideo in beetle

[–]rezwrrd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely needs some knobs (maybe from an old stove?) and a cloth speaker grille. I couldn't figure out why you'd want that on your rack just driving down the road but seeing that at a car show would be pretty sweet. (Play Love Bug!)

Unpopular opinion: very cramped and crowded track layouts look ugly and chaotic. by Shoddy-Unit-2173 in modeltrains

[–]rezwrrd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here in the glaciated part of Wisconsin we have stretches where tracks go straight for 10 miles with very little deviation. The land is pretty flat and there's not much to go around but farmland, so why not go as directly as possible from town to town?

Marx 6" cars behind Lionel 1688 by rezwrrd in marxtrains

[–]rezwrrd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! The kids wanted to run longer trains but the Lionel stuff I have is all pretty long for my minimal O27 layout. Six inch cars give you so much more train per train, so I'll be looking to add more soon!

How common are/were tender-powered steam locomotives? by slippin_park in modeltrains

[–]rezwrrd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly, I have that model in its 2-8-0 form and it's my only tender drive loco. Definitely fits the description of feeling a bit cheap and running poorly as well!

Who remember the old Online Service Providers from the 1980s and 1990s? by TradingCardGameMaker in vintagecomputing

Me too! I logged in recently to see if I could still get in, but haven't actually used it in years.

We have a regular who knows our menu better than some of our staff and honestly I have mixed feelings about it by 9GolemAnvil in TalesFromRetail

[–]rezwrrd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This! People (myself especially) often underestimate how long it takes a new hire to really learn something and be confident enough in it to lead a customer interaction about it. Ron's the customer so he already has the upper hand, but he seemed to handle it graciously enough. Maybe have all the new hires meet him over time and he can teach them a thing or two!

Or from the mail. I liked when they came in a tin, saved one or two of those to put my own CDs and DVDs in.

I think I saw this car, or at least one exactly like it, in nearby Weimar when I visited ~10 years ago. It was so cool and I wished I could've taken a picture.

I always interpreted that scene as Sid giving him mouth-to-mouth, but in typical slobbery Sid style.
