Sun 4-12-2020 11:37 p.m. I just finished watching an internet posting
about Federal Reserve Representative Kashkari's economic outlook over
the next 18 months. In the best case, things could get back normal
quickly (a "v"-type recovery). In the worst...
Sun 4-12-2020 8:29 p.m. I use a spectrum of qualities or criteria to
rate the performance of ebay sellers. Approximately, 80% of ebay sellers
are failures. A failure of any one item in the following criteria means
a total failure: 1) Price: If someth...
Sun 4-12-2020 7:37 p.m. This post is about a proposed method of
packaging HO brass locos so that they can be tested in the packaging. I
have been extremely reluctant to sell any HO locomotives on ebay.
Unfortunately, I have heard too many ebay war st...
Fri 4-10-2020 6:54 p.m. I would like to suggest that bids for
non-operational HO trains (that is, locomotives) not exceed 50% of
market price for an operational locomotive. Many HO train modelers are

to make thrifty face masks out of a discarded turtleneck shirt. For
starters, I cut off one sleeve near the armpit area of the shirt. Then I
made a second cut near the elbow of t...
Sun 4-2-2020 10:04 p.m. Dear Alcoforever: Perhaps the word "senile" is a
bit too harsh. A friend in Tennessee who is an Athearn nut used to
employ the phrase: "A pickle short of a barrel." Of course, he is
eloquent and I am not. Instead of cooking up...
Sun 4-10-2020 9:57 p.m. Dear Alcoforever: Vent - Vent - Vent! And no, I
don't feel better. Simply put, I don't know where to go from here. I
just got a reply back from an ebay seller this evening about a purchase.
You would think I dropped a heavy st...
Fri 4-3-2020 3:13 p.m. Dear PrettyWoman: I am glad to know that there
are intelligent people in New Mexico (and in other Countries as well as
other US States) who are concerned with "social distancing." I found
your post enlightening. I was particula...
Fri 4-3-2020 2:26 p.m. Dear Mudshark... Some time ago, I wrote an ebay
Discussion Board post about free packing tape. I advised that usable
packing tape could be harvested from various cardboard boxes by
stripping tape off an underlying layer of pack...
