Opie and Anthony made him look like an asshat, and it was funny as hell to watch/listen to. All you have to do when discussing something with Jesse Ventura to shut him down is give him a little pushback, because he is so used to people listening to him without question.

I saw a set that was 44" across. Under the tree?

And where would said train set reside? -- at the mancave?!;) Unless your fiancee is also a train fan -- I know these things take up a lot of space!:rolleyes:

ETA: clearly not alone in my 'concerns'!

Train sets are one of the (very few) things I am sad about missing out on by having daughters instead of sons. I can't get my girls interested in baseball either.

I have a friend that built his train city on a huge piece of plywood that he would lower from the ceiling in his garage, when he wanted to play. The engineer in you should be able to do this.

I am really getting sick of the e-cards that are clogging up my work e-mail. Sure, the thought is nice, and I know it is "green" to send non-paper cards, but this is getting ridiculous. I work with 5 people from a single law firm -- I got the same e-card from all 5 of them in about a 7 minute span.

I suggested to a coworker that we have a community bottle of booze and all take a shot when an e-card comes in. I would be hammered now if we did that...
