Double check. I'm sure that Brokeback Mountain is out by now.
wah??I just noticed this now :p Hey now, I'm not the one in a dress and heels though!


Could be worse, they could all be like me and hate everything lol :D

It's an age thing
IF I could hijack I'd say your tdi with grumpy ol' seatman :p

I KNOW you're not talkin' 'bout me. I defended the bridge! :p Besides, EVERYONE like ALL BRIDGES, ALL THE TIME! :rolleyes:



Nah, we're stuck with it now....you won and it's been the challenge too long at this point to pull it back. :p

When one wins, one gets to name the challenge. If it is too outlandish, "you" risk it going 72 hours. You may or may not want that, so consider that in your challenges. Rual817 didn't HAVE to omit the planking part in his last one, but chose to. It's okay to stick to your guns, or moderate under enough protests to keep peace and comraderary. :cool:

I just wanted to clarify the history, since folks seemed curious. :rolleyes:

)
I know I didn't HAVE to but did for the sake of getting a challenge met AND not wanting anyone to damage their ride. Me being somewhat of a smaller guy didn't consider :rolleyes: some of you other guys might cave the roof in. LOL

I have never seen that movie! At least it isn't in my collection :p
I never saw it either, but when I saw people talking about I was like "What movie is that? What are you talking about??" Then they would say it was BBM and I was like "THAT'S what its about????"

Reading the challenge slowly it doesn't say the birdge has to be up. It just says a TDI waiting for the bridge to do it's thing. TDI is waiting, Bridge is waiting, all good, win for NewLyme.

Well, if you're waiting it implies that the bridge is in motion. You wouldn't be waiting if the bridge wasn't doing it's "thing" i.e. Opening/ closing. ;)

True you wouldn't be waiting, but the first part of the challenge says Parked next to/waiting... Getting extremely technical, the / usually means "or".

It's not my challenge though, so I'll wait here quietly :D

Okidoke! Talpatalk wasnt loading the images. So yeah, I guess you won it NewLyme. I'll just save my back-up challenge for when I win again in like 100 or so challenges. :D

I was just going up to see the bridge knowing it most likely would not be moving. I took the picture for fun. My interpretation of the challenge was the Bridge either going up or down. I'll leave it up to Forza91 if it is a win.

Here is a Mailbox I saw in my travels today. Hope you like it! :)

I've got to learn to type faster!
Challenge coming in a few minutes.

When there is a beautiful January day in the mid-50's around here, some men knock off and go fishing. I however, do stuff like this. :rolleyes:





The Joe Page bridge in Hardin Il. built in 1931, refreshed in 2004. Joe Page was a civil war vet and mayor of Jerseyville Il.

I "waited" about an hour for it to do its thing.....but alas....:rolleyes:

Well done Mr. NewLyme, good show old bean. ;)

Anyway, here's a shot of the new billion-dollar suspension bridge under construction that is to carry 3 interstates across the Mississippi just north of downtown St. Louis:

Next Challenge (#540): Your TDI with a Snowmobile
So I have to take my wife driving today after work. (Because it will be over 50 degrees) Snowmobiles are hard to come by around here. Is someone going to do this before I hit the road later? I need to decide which car to take! :D

The person that owns this mailbox has at least a dozen antique gas pumps throughout their yard. Too bad I didn't know about it during the last centenary challenge.

That's a twofer. Mailbox and an antique fuel pump.

Oh weather vane, I could do that maybe, if the snow doesn't get in the way and someone doesn't beat me to it.
