Jeez, I hope your luck starts improving Matt!

Sounds like you need to evict your roommate. Ol' Murphy was living at my house for a while but it sounds like he's set up house with you now.

I do think Ol' Man Murphy has set up shop in my house. Either that, or karma is catching up to me.

Murphy was an optimist.

Sorry for the late reply Matt, had a Bummer attack shortly after my last reply, and some serious surgery , and am now getting back into the swing, I'm familiar with Mt. Morris, right near Flint, in fact they were hit by a serious tornado in 59 if my memory serves me, anyway, it's great to hear from someone from the Flint area, and also a Model RR inthusiest, I plan to visit the Museum in Chicago sometime within the next few months, maybe me we could meet for a coffee or? If you are interested, will keep you posted when I will be going.

Duane,
Sorry to hear about your run of bad luck. Hopefully you are recovering nicely.
Which museum are you going to visit? The Illinois Railway Museum is just a bit north of the city. I think it is the museum of Industry that has the huge HO layout. I have not been there. If I can break away, I would gladly meet you for a cup 'o joe.

Well, it is good to be back. My computer went belly up last month. It is all fixed now, but it seems that I missed alot. Including the kitbuild challenge. I had to abandon the kit to rebuild the computer.

Matt, you should submit the computer as your entry in a build challenge
