Hey Fabiola, you are a lot prettier than Queen Elizabeth, course then so is Tom so I don't know if that is much of a complement or not. ;)

Tom · July 18, 2003, 12:05:51 PM

:DWhat a laugh I had over that remark, Mark. :D

Fabiola · July 18, 2003, 12:10:07 PM

I know that Mark, ;)but now I am also as important as her since I have my own coin!!!!!!!!! :D

Well, so much for Queen Elizabeth joining the forum. Mark fixed that, Jeff. :D

Fabiola · July 18, 2003, 12:18:15 PM

Do you belive she would? :D :D
She is probably realy boring person.

Tom · July 18, 2003, 12:37:23 PM

She was probably standing in a long line of monarchs who want to join the forum. I'll bet she's really jealous that I am prettier than she is. :D

Thanks Fab,
You look great.

Definitely not a disappointment. I knew if I kept begging and pleading you'd post one for us. I use those tactics at home all the time with my wife. Please dear, all I want is a new LT 70. Well the pleading will have to continue a lot more and a lot louder I guess. Let me see, what are her favorites?
Note to any school teachers out there:
Do not try this in your classroom, it could be dangerous and it doesn't work.

Speaking of the Queen, a few years ago my company took us to England to visit the Caterpillar plant that makes the Telehandlers and some of the compact construction equipment. Our flight was delayed and we got to London pretty late in the day so we were tired and decided to take a nap. I woke up about 2am and thought "DanG we slept through our first night in London!" I went down to talk to the doorman and ask if a person dared take a walk at that time of the night and he assured me it was a safe area, so my wife and I decided we would take a little stroll. We walked along the river and came across the bridge by Big Ben and then walked back up to Trafalgar Square. By this time is was around 3:30 and there were only few people out. At one end of the square is a big curved building called Admiralty Arch so we walked through it and started down this one street. As we walked farther it got darker and we saw a few police cars with their lights on. Cindy said she didn't really like the looks of this neighborhood and I was a little uncomfortable so we decided to turn around. Needless to say we got a good laugh the next day when we found out the we were walking up the mall to Buckingham Palace. :D

The Queen wasn't home by the way.

I won't mention the part where were trying to figure out what the building with the razor wire was that was at the base of the Big Ben clock tower. Turned out it wasn't a prison after all. :D

It's always fun when hayseeds go to the big city, especially a foreign one.

This thread has must have set a record for the number of views and replies in the shortest time. Yet no one has talked about a tree or sawmill or a board yet.
