Momma had eye surgery so I got a few days off from railroading, thought this site was a good place to spend some of that time I never had. Oh, and up my post count...
High ball!

The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side

Diverging clear, I'm assuming your freight? I'm OBS with Amtrak. We still share the love of the rails and RRB......

I see your sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side and raise you 5x^-2y^10 over 2x^-1(-3x^-3y^-1)^-2

You have assumed correctly...I had 25 years of public service b/4 I went RRB, Freight doesn't talk back..

I know a bunch of younger guys that went over (moved me up quick in seniority) and they love it.

I love my job too, it's my employer that sucks...

Man you got that right, sometime I thing about going T&E, but with OBS, 1 weeks vacation is 18 days with my regular run. I really enjoy my free time, the pay is about 30K less then what I make now so I think it's a fair trade..... Diverging Approach Medium, be safe brother!

From one "*** clown" to another, I sincerely apologize. It's all in fun.

Also, I wish you and "Momma" nothing but the best and I hope everything goes well.

Funny I thought this was the off topic forum but apparently some people get there panties in a knot if they don't like the subject.

I read on another thread somewhere if you don't like the topic why are you reading the thread and getting all hissy?

I don't think I read anywhere on this thread anyone accusing anyone of being "not cool" or telling someone to use the forum like they do. It was an observation I made with my own opinion but apparently you are only entitled to that as long as it goes along with yours.

I like your dramatic use of capital letters.

You get quite emotional for a moderator don't you?

How about pushing and pulling the count. Everyone starts at 10K and from that point you decrease in a logarithmic fashion to a predetermined level at which point the total is divided by 2 and subtracted from an arbitrary number based on the weather. Then the count is increased in a linear fashion to a determined level based on the whim of the moderator and weighted by the gender. Simple as a pimple IMO.
