What were we talking about???

I don't suppose I need to read the rest of this thread. I will catch it later. At least now I am involved in the conversation.

OK, I admit it, that was a pretty bizarre way to spend an evening, but it didn't take much to entertain us. We used to call all the trails a conversation would take, "building railroads". The same thing happens in thread drift and it can be fascinating to watch how people respond to a topic.
Don't get upset and call in the "fuzz" to bust the railroaders, just go with the flow.

Love the humor in this thread.
