It would seem the "insiders" know much more about him, than do the trodden masses.
He can make the weather vane arrow on the Plasticville city hall point against the wind...
One of his prize possessions is John Henry's favorite sledgehammer, which, after a night of partying together, he won by beating big John in arm wrestling both righty and left handed.
Only he and Jimmy Rodgers know what the hag is all about. And that is ok with me.

Priceless, Rich! 
He runs his engines as a LASHUP and Rich Melvin approved it!
His beeps don't beep
They pronounce
Once, in order to get his safari team out of a jam
He MUed a pair of hippopotami together elephant style
At a time when he was serving as an unpaid intern in a Tibetan monastery, a man with a shaved head and very few words taught him the flying switch technique, a lesson that has served him well throughout the years.
His Geeps don't geep
Because he just won't have it
He uses the outer ring of the Pentagon as a around the wall layout.

He rents space in Paterson NJ just so he will be first in line for Trainstock
This is just awesome Rich!
You made me laugh. Good man
You made me laugh. Good man

He doesn't always play with trains on HO track, But when he does it's On30.
He doesn't go to trains shows; they just spontaneously happen on his front lawn.
While he has several classic cars, he has his own private depot at the local RR line right outside the gate of his estate.
And Amtrak only runs the line for him.
I would say you have to add Henry Ford.
Please check out this video, from the Henry Ford Museum.
All his steam engines watch HIM smoke.

There is no line for him.
He rides up to Trainstock in his own private elevator, and...
His elevator has its own layout, to entertain him on the ride up to the third floor.
He can doublehead Lional and MTH steam and noone has a comment
His Lionel stuff doesn't need a center rail to run correctly...
I'm looking forward to seeing Marty at the next York. Until then we will have to enjoy our Seattle and Boston teams from our respective corners of the country.
In the spirit of this thread and today's games I offer this for your consideration.
Ok, just one more time...
At one time, he had more simultaneous O Gauge projects going than Lee Willis
Then he discovered Dos Equis
Or bought a big screen TV, reports are mixed... Love you Lee!
He once held a tutorial on bridge building for Uncle Fester
Six months later they agreed to reconvene and perfected the art and science of O Gauge demolitions
Somewhat incognito, his silhouette is in all Lionel equipped cars
Mr. Cowen insisted he wear a fedora cocked to one side because his profile was so striking it detracted from the overall look of the passengers in the car
Wow... replies still coming to my Inbox from this overkilled thread... silly me.
Unsubscribed
It wasn't the most interesting thing he ever shared
But, he was known to use the saying in a time of crisis
Don't go away mad, Just go away
