Smoking Hot (2)


That's an old engine from Galveston Rail Museum (some of you know already this work), kinda too oldie and forgotten... they still rebuild or repair the Museum after the Ike's devastation, as well as they work on those old tramways... the weather was pretty nice today, so I took a trip to the ocean, so I just checked today the "situation" in town, and the result is nothing new...

Today's joke:

It was the first time the blonde was eating Thanksgiving dinner without her family. Trying to re-enact the tradition, she prepared a dinner for herself alone. The next day, her mother called to see how everything went.
- Oh, mother, I made myself a lovely dinner, but I had so much trouble trying to eat the turkey! said the daughter.
- Did it not taste good? her mother asked.
- I don't know, the blonde said. It wouldn't sit still!
