I thought you said you were staying out of this...?
He better not stay out of it. I don't get into a small wading pool filled with butterscotch pudding goodness in a pink camo bathing suit for just anyone you know!

I have standards!!
Yeah, but I don't.
Does the pudding have to be cold? And does anyone mind if we happen to get distracted with it's yummy goodness and start eating it in the middle of the "fight"?

Gravekeeper, send me your Paypal address. I will donate one dollar to your cause for entertaining me so much.
Especially the laundry story.
I don't have one.
Maybe I should open one just for donations. I mean, you never know. I could make like....er....tens...of dollars....maybe....ok, tops. If I was really lucky and begged. ;p
If you're in Chicago, you'd call it the "El" (short for "Elevated Train").
I don't know what New York calls them, but they have them.
Boston saves some trouble by calling the Elevated Trains and the Subways all the "MTA", so there's no distinction as far as I know.
Disney World calls theirs the Monorail.
Apparently, Europe prefers to build the kind that hang from their tracks, whereas here in North America we sensibly have the train sit on top of the tracks.
Well, as far as I know, most tramways, subways and whatever you may call it, in France sit on top of the tracks too. The fun part is explaining to foreigners that it's still the "subway" or "underground", even if the tracks runs abov the road at this particular location. We call it the "metro", you are the one insisting it should be under the ground.

The Skytrain typically runs about 2-6 stories up along most of its track length. It only comes down to ground level at a handful of stations and underground for a couple ( Mainly the ones downtown where there was no space to put it above ground. )
So yeah, it spends most its time fairly high up. Hence Skytrain.
I want to ride on a sky train. Maybe I'll ask one of the guys from ABB (a company based out of Quebec, I believe, since so many of them come from there!) to take me home with him.

Okay, yeah, Quebec now sucks. But I don't know anyone (besides yourself and another guy I'll call Uncle Mikey) in BC. And neither of you will come down this far just to kidnap get me and take me home with you guys.

On a side note, I'm just a couple short hours drive away from GK goodness
