Hey Moni!
I hope you don't mind me reprinting your post here for lrdmarboro and anyone else to enjoy. I find it to be my favorite anecdote in W&W and I thought this was a good place to resurrect it.

The party falls on their butts on the tracks as the car speeds off without them!
1st Samurai: "OK, the light changed, see if you can bring it back now"
pull: 'CLICK' (wait)
Paladin: "Yeah, the light changed again! It must be coming back!"
2nd Samurai: "Oh cool! It spins when it stops! This ought to be fun!"
1st Samurai "OK Let's try again, everyone hop in."
pull: 'CLICK' WHUMP!
Priest: "Dammit! Oh Blessed Kerah, forgive me!"
1st Samurai: ::sigh:: "Let's try again."
pull: 'CLICK' (wait)
Ninja: "Heh heh...Lets stay here on the tracks and jump into it when it gets here"
(JUMP~Land "in?" the cart)
pull: 'CLICK' WHUMP!
Ninja: "OW! I just got stuck with a level 1 lockpick! I knew I should have sold these things!"
pull: 'CLICK' (wait)
Paladin: OK, Let's try again & you, Wizard! Make sure your robe is not getting caught on anything back there!"
Wizard: ::mumble grumble:: "I have a flamestrike that ought to take care of this thing if you people want to step back."
Priest: "Now now, let's watch out tempers, friends, we don't want to offend the spirits that watch over us!"
Ninja: "Shut up & get in Mr. Holier Than Thou!"
1st Samurai: "Let me try the lever this time! Move!"
pull: 'CLICK' WHUMP!
2nd Samurai: "Well we obviously aren't heavy enough for this thing!"
1st Samurai: "Well wasn't it you that was whining that we have too much stuff, let's go back to town & sell it?"
pull: 'CLICK' (wait)
2nd Samurai: "How was I supposed to know?"
Paladin: "So how do we get heavier? We can't eat!"
Priest: "We don't dare kill off the miners just to see what they have! It can't be much! They are poor miners for Kerah's sake!"
Paladin: "OK, get in! Get in! We can do this! We are heroes!"
pull: 'CLICK' WHUMP!
Ninja: "OW! Darned lockpicks! Why didn't you remind me to sell these too!"
2nd Samurai: "Sorry!"
pull: 'CLICK' (wait)
1st Samurai: "I'm getting tired of this!"
Paladin: "Well, me too but we can't rest either!"
Priest: "What shall we do?"
Ninja: "Try again, DUH!"
pull: 'CLICK' WHUMP!
1st Samurai: "I am REALLY getting tired of this!"
Priest: "I think I broke a potion, my robe is wet! It will get all muddy!"
Wizard: "I'll take care of it for you. Step into that cart & let me throw a Flamestrike or two! My spell finger is getting itchy and you are getting on my last nerve!"
pull: 'CLICK' (wait)
Paladin: "You guys REALLY want to try again or should we head in the virtual realm and see if we can get some help?"
2nd Samurai: ::looking at the cart:: ::sigh:: "It DID look like it was going to be fun didn't it? Let's go."

Please don't think I'm laughing at you Moni, I'm laughing with you. When I first read this I was laughing so loud, my wife though I lost my mind. (Joke's on her, I lost my mind ages ago.)
I think this may have been the post that caused me to frequent this Forum exclusively!
Thanx, Moni!
