    The Weather Channel's gone downhill ever since they switched to Land's End from L.L. Bean.

    And how many shows for tow trucks in the snow do we need? And now they have a home improvement show, too, that used to have Almost-Paul Walker on it. Just stick to the weather and some storm stuff. Don't need a show called Why Airplanes Crash, either.

    I've probably mentioned this to you before @SeleniumFalcon , but Joseph Esmilla (he of https://jelabs.blogspot.com/ fame) is a pretty serious photographer (besides being a professional musician, audiophile, and skilled amateur/DIY hifi component designer/builder). He has or had family in Hagerstown and still spends some time out that-a-ways. I don't recall many choo-choo photos, but he has an exceptional photo collection on Flickr at https://www.flickr.com/photos/je2a3

    If you're on Flickr, I'd encourage you to "follow" him. Heck, even if you're not a member at Flickr, I'd still encourage you to peruse his images on there now and again. I suspect you might enjoy them. :)

    "JE" is also one of the nicest human beings I've ever had the opportunity to know.

    As an almost-completely-irrelevant aside, our son went to that college that used to be Western Maryland College, in (not-particularly-western MD) Westminster. ;)

    "our son went to that college that used to be Western Maryland College"

    A one-room college in a railroad caboose is quite unique ! 😲

    The tuition was quite reasonable. B)

    Yeah, yeah... it used to be WMC.
    It grew up. ;)

    The caboose's still there, though, AFAIK.

    Thanks for the link, very cool indeed! Some nice photos of Hagerstown and Frederick, my wife is a volunteer at that museum, which is a real jewel.

    Completely independent school, AFAIK. It was the perfect place for our son, and he excelled there.
    Found his sweetie there, too... :blush:

    I was just kiddin' around. I was fairly certain it wasn't associated.
    I just remember those commercials and thought that the weirdest, most confusing name for a learning institution. It was like a mobius strip of school naming that just got lazy after realizing what was going on :D

    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    You REALLY have to worry about the ones that would see this in their rear-view mirror at a stoplight and repeatedly BACK INTO it on purpose. :|
