There's got to be a story behind the privy scene! And there's not enough money in the world to get me down that ski jump ! :O>)

I grew up in the Iron Mountain area; I have high school friends who were ski jumpers. It is a wonderful sight to see them go off that slide. (Skiing is a way of life in the UP- another thing I miss about not being home.)

"There's got to be a story behind the privy scene!

To borrow, in part, from British slang:
That is obviously an "Ig-loo"! {smile}

FRNash...I often don't agree with your ponderings. BUT you've hit the nail on the head here! :O>)


By kay Moore (Mskatie) on Friday, January 15, 2010 - 11:45 am:

Groooooooooooaaaaaaaan! I can't believe I used the word "head"!

Hey, we're on a roll now, eh?
And I hope it's not a roll of TP! {smile}

Kay and FRNash...I think it's time that you "wipe" the slate clean :)

Can anybody help me. I am trying to find information on a Bagley Railroad. All I was told is that is use to haul wood to Chassell OR it use to drop logs in the canal to be floated to somwhere, I am really not sure. The person also said it was located around Jacobsville. Any help and/or information would be greatly appreciated. ;O) I will check back later or tomorrow. thanks.

Alex & FRNash...oh you guys are good!Your humor has me "pooped" out!


By Jacobsville (Barb) on Friday, January 15, 2010 - 09:14 pm:

I googled Bagley Railroad with quotes around it. This website shows information:
http://books.google.com/books?id=pGXdFB-hYd8C&pg=PA109&lpg=PA109&dq=%22Bagley+Railroad%22&source=bl&ots=Wk9M-MMj7W&sig=L-10yYePqTWnAFCnadHPCBPIZNk&hl=en&ei=ayBRS6HIHJOGNrPTiJQJ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CBYQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=%22Bagley%20Railroad%22&f=false

I should have added that this is a book:
Houghton County, 1870-1920
By Richard E. Taylor


By FRNash/PHX, AZ (Frnash) on Friday, January 15, 2010 - 10:52 pm:

Jacobsville (Barb):
That's a huge, nasty URL for the link to the book, and worse, not all of the URL was turned into a link.

Suggestion:
In the future, when posting a link such as that one, use the \newurl{} formatting tag, for example, write it thus:

See the book: \newurl{<URL>,Houghton County, 1870-1920, By Richard E. Taylor}.

… but copy that big ugly URL (all of it), and paste in in place of "<URL>" in the above.

The result will not only be a whole lot less messy, but it will turn into a clickable link too, like so:

See the book: Houghton County, 1870-1920, By Richard E. Taylor.

Now you can click the link in the line above!


If clicking on that link leads you to a page that includes the following:

Page109

… just click on the page number shown, then you'll be able to scroll through the book.
