Anyone know what these are? Research has been an epic fail!! They are in relation to... Model trains. HO scale more then likly. I bought to large boxes from goodwill of model trains, parts, buildings etc. 2" x 3" package measurements.

plastic rail joiners - that is my guess.

Edit - Vintage plastic ho rail joiners

Good morning, pirates!

The ship is rocking!

I really am hating this kerfunkle with the punctuation marks.

AND..... I think ARC placed a curse on me last night by saying my spider was the size of BB. I ended up digging 14 BBs last night. 14 little BBs!

I bet tomorrow is going to be a very surreal day for him.

My recollection of 9/11 which is the 20th Anniversary tomorrow is still fresh in my mind.

Reason being is I received an early pension buyout and my last day on the job was the end of August /01.

My retirement party was scheduled for the Thursday of the week of 9/11 and the towers came down on the Monday. I received a phone call from my General Manager Monday afternoon asking if I was ok if it was postponed.

My answer was it's not a time for partying with all the death and destruction and I don't want any of my friends and coworkers flying during these uncertain times.

The gathering was held a few weeks later.

The helmet my dad wore while searching for survivors in the rubble of the Pentagon. He found no survivors, instead finding only body parts and airplane wreckage.

So far for the past day or so he has been watching 9/11 documentaries without saying a word. He packed his bag after spending all night at the Pentagon, to take a train to Ground Zero to help. My mom begged him not to go, so he stayed. He regrets that decision very badly according to him.
