Dangers of Carpet Central RR's

Here ya go, Scott Smith.  Nothing keeps the Mrs happy like a model railroad she can't see.  In this case, even visit.  Well played, sir.

I going to go spill some smoke oil on the beige LR carpet and see what happens. Thanks for the tip! Fred

Audi;

Let us know what hospital to send flowers to. 

Keith;

How you must be suffering.

Way to go, Keith!  Talk about a "man cave"--you have definitely gone first class!

Aw, poor baby, wife made you play with your cho-choo trains in the shed (though wouldn't mind that shed in my back yard!!! :-)

That will teach her. Now all you need is a cot and a Refrigerator. Good Job.

WOW! What a lady, and this is all due to some oil. I could just imagine if it were black grease instead.

Way to go!

I need a step-by-step procedure for doing this, that's an idea I could get behind!

Thanks for the replys.

Casey LV, I do have a small Refrigerator, Cable TV, small Bed, DVD player with Railroad DVD's and a full bathroom. I still need an microwave oven and coffee pot. I do let the wife store her Christmas boxes under the layout.

If it were me I would get that microwave and coffee pot in a hurry then contact the Post Office and file a change of adrees card! Maybe you should take some dirt in from the backyard and tell her you need to use the microwave to dry it out and kill the bugs! Bet you would have that microwave in no time........

Beautiful Keith!!  So proud to have you as one of the Mid-America 3-Railer group!!

POW/MIA YOU ARE NEVER FORGOTTEN

I'd personally ask her to move her Christmas decorations into the house, probably somewhere on her clean new carpet.

...Then again, I would not want to push the subject.

Sir Johnson,

You make my day.  I see the air-conditionning unit...  Good move!

Now she will wonder why there is no husband to walk on clean white carpet.

It has always amazed me why someone would install white carpet in the first place - then get surprised/upset when it gets dirty. Some things I will never understand.

But at least you got a train house. Cool!

Keith: you don't understand, The cot was for me.

That's terrible! How could you damage her carpet like that? You should be ashamed of yourself. No wonder she sent you to the dog house. LOL!! I want to come and see your dog house it looks real cool.

I almost got kicked out of the basement for taking too much of it.  I threatened to build my  own train barn.  That was the end of the discussion, I got to keep my claimed portion of the basement.  She knew I would build it and "move out of the house".  Darn!!!

Looks like a great space and it's your own!

Dan

Must be tough living like that.
