Definitely go to bed late and sleep in. How can one work out well with waking up several times during the night? Get a good night's sleep, then work out later in the day :)

Would you rather we continue to have Multi-Railroad dude make his presence asking if Mike can unban him from railstream, or nudge him in a direction to stop asking about railstream?

The 2nd definitely :)

Would you rather do a RRF.com meet fossil hunt (bike an abandoned ROW like Owosso to Lowell) or meet at a place like Deshler?

As much as I'd like to do more biking outings, it just isn't an interest to 90%+ of the board members. A RRF.com meet needs to be a little more accessible than that. We'll just have to keep the bike outings to the few of us that enjoy that. So unfortunately, answer is Deshler.

Story: let's say you really had to use the bathroom on a road trip, stopped at a gas station where there's a single toilet in a room. Left a massive dump, and come to find out, the toilet's flush lever was broken and the toilet didn't flush. Would you rather tell the employee it's broken and help try to get it flushed, or bail out of there telling no one?

Naturally this has occurred at various places over the years and it was always clogged/broken before I used it (that's my story and I'm sticking to it) :D but I believe I always mentioned it to the staff who would feign various levels of caring.

I'll go medium. The little kids want a small dog and the big kids want a big dog so no one will be happy

I could eat relatively healthy from McDonald's it is just there would always be the temptation to eat tasty unhealthy food :lol:

If you can only eat at one fast food place which one would you rather it be?

Chipotle, I love "mexican", it's reasonably healthy, and the possibilities are endless.

TP because I do not know what a bidet is 🤔

Would you rather know what a bidet is or have free breakfast cereal for a year?

The 2nd but if I am not a greedy SOB I could do both with the 1st like Tom Monahan :) .

Would you rather live near a short line railroad where the train is the same but the crews are friendly and will let you ride in the cab or a diamond of two major Class 1's with lots of trains and different types of engines but you have to stay off railroad property and most of the crews do not acknowledge you?

The first for sure. I am already pretty much in the second situation.
