(TIMEOUT) I’ll have to be leaving for a while now, but something tells me this will still be at or near the top when I sign back on. For the record, I really don’t know what CSX stands for, it’s just a train company around here. (END OF TIMEOUT) ---

Can we try to keep this to one question per post for clarity’s sake? (TIMEOUT - pepperlandgirl gets another 5 points for answering _EVERY-FUCKIN-THING_ and I’m too lazy to want to sort through it all right now. If I had any points I would deduct 3 from my score.)
