I'll say that Chemical Plant Zone is easily one of my favorite Sonic acts, not to mention that the music is a banger

Every time I've had bloodwork done I usually need to stay seated for like a minute and every time they always ask if I need water or help up (which is funny considering my age lol). Same lady, super sweet, and I've even been called "hon" once.

Breaking and entering, grand larceny, and probably false imprisonment.
Also what game allows you to burn oil wells lol

Like when the GN built the Cascade Tunnel and it's subsequent 73 mile long stretch of electrified mainline, it ultimately shortened it by 9 miles and the elevation of the line through the Cascades went down by about 500 feet. Imagine the cost reduction of SHORTENING LINES

Is.. that an actual scene from the movie?

There's quite a bit in there, so maybe it'd make more sense to adapt the Dark Empire trilogy with the same caveat.

Just watched the pilot and WOW that was wild. Also looked up the influences and apparently Gooseworx said she was influenced by I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, but taking more of a comedic approach, which I LOVE. I Have No Mouth is one of my favorite short stories

That's wild! If it's truly the case, and depending on the date, I may make a trip to Albuquerque this year..

It was a disaster on wheels. A D&H employee said "every time we sent her out a machine shop had to go with her."

I believe the booster is a separate system, but the way it works is steam is sent to a HP cylinder on the right of the cab, the exhaust sent to an IP cylinder on the left of the cab, and then that exhaust is fed to the two massive LP cylinders up front.

Oh absolutely! On top of the Dabeg rotary poppet valves, it was a triple expansion engine, had a 500 psi water-tube boiler, and a six wheeled booster on the tender that ran straight off the 500 psi steam.

L. F. Loree, unique in many ways, an interesting one being that it was the only locomotive built in 1933. Testament to how bad the Depression was

I've noticed it's a symptom of the internet. No matter where I've gone, or what website I've used, I usually see it somewhere.

And when they gave 4449 whitewalls on top of that it's even better.

Been getting some nasty wind too, paranoid that the power might go out. It did last semester, nearly took us 13 hours to get it back
