I was on E-Bay all day sunday and monday. I am preparing for the new RPG game Grayhawk and the Temple of Elemental Evil coming out sometime between june 20th and sept 1st this year. The game started out as a pen an paper RPG boxed module game and the people that wrote the original are converting it to a 3D computer game. from what I understand it follows the original game in general very close so, I went to E-Bay to try and find the original game. After 6 hrs of searching I found three MODs and the original 128 page in Game book, that will help me to understand what the game is really all about. I also am a Model Railroader and over the past 30 years I have collected and spent over $45,000.00 dollars on the hobbie,well monday I added another $2,500.00 to my collection when I bought 1 more really nice 4-4-0 steam engine 1880's era, a set of 8 log cars, a log loading crane and 24 more assorted items. Then after all my mad money for this month was spent I got out of E-Bay and went outside to B-B-Q three 2 inch thick Black Angus porterhouse steaks for my son, me and my wife. While I B-B-Qed my wife baked some potatoes and made some great honey corn bread and fresh Corn on the cob and my son made some home made Ice cream and mixed fresh strawberrys in with it. It had to be the best meal I've had since I left California and moved here to Virginia 9 years ago. Then after all that I went back to my study and clicked on the internet and IW and saw that Ziroc was out of money again. He would post it after I spent all my madd money so I'll borrow $20.00 from my wife on friday and mail it to Ziroc to help keep IW alive. Hope others that can aford it send him a little. Well I had a really good weekend and now I'm going to bed so good night all.
Since you are into Trains, do you know of the Matchbox type cars called "Tomica" ? They were also released under the name of "Pocket Cars". I collect those only. And MOST of them are construction vehicles. I LOVE those! I have some rare ones.. I wish they would make a good detailed Paver that is on a 1:90 scale. Tomica totally KILLS anything matchbox and hotwheels makes.. The detail is SO good, it looks like the real thing!

They stopped selling them in the USA, so I have gone to Toy shows in the past years and found 1 or 2 and on ebay.. Usually around $10 a car, but it's rare to find the ones I like. [img]smile.gif[/img]
