The lyrics are a tongue-in-cheek narrative where, to save face, the singer claims he will say his girlfriend died in a variety of outlandish ways rather than admit she dumped him. The song had some inspiration from Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" and was originally going to be titled "50 Ways to Kill Your Lover". That title was tossed as it could attract controversy.[3]
The music video was directed by Marc Klasfeld and features David Hasselhoff, Taryn Manning, Jonathan Lipnicki, and a Mariachi trio, in addition to band members Pat Monahan, Jimmy Stafford, and Scott Underwood (Stafford and Underwood have since left the band). The video is set in a supermarket with Monahan explaining to Hasselhoff and various other customers and staff members the absence of his girlfriend. Stafford portrays the store cashier and Underwood plays the butcher, while the girlfriend is played by Manning. The grocery store scenes are interspersed with cutaways to the various excuses Pat makes for his girlfriend's absence, as well as scenes of the band performing onstage. Towards the end of the video, a fan who was holding up signs consoling Pat for the supposed loss of his girlfriend finally holds up a sign that says "Rack City Bitch", a reference to "Rack City" by Tyga. At the end of the video, Pat's girlfriend is revealed to be alive, and says hello to him and Hasselhoff, who stand awkwardly as she continues her shopping.

The theme here is that Pat got dumped, and instead of facing the fact that soul sister's JUST NOT THAT INTO HIM, he tells everyone that she died in a multitude of effed-up and creative ways. To support the darkly humorous track, Train's goofball video begins with singer Pat Monahan hanging at the grocery store with David Hasselhoff (as one does), who apparently has a real eye for ripe tomatoes as well as American talent.
Every year around this time, Amtrak has their Rail Pass sale; that\u2019s what afforded me the opportunity to ride the train around America for a month and write about it for this newsletter. (In case you missed that, here\u2019s Parts One, Two, Three, and Four.) This year, I\u2019m sorry to say, the sale\u2019s not quite \u2026
Even at 3 A.M., 12,000 people gathered in Richmond, Indiana, as the funeral train passed under a 25-foot-high arch erected by its citizens. One woman dressed as the Genius of Liberty wept over a mock coffin, while a committee of ladies boarded the train to present a pair of floral wreaths.
After a public viewing in Chicago, where the line of mourners stretched more than a mile, the funeral train finally reached Springfield, Illinois on May 3. After a 1,645-mile journey, Lincoln was home.
This song is hilarious to me. I've always LOVED Train, and this just confirms it for me.=DI think this song is about his girlfriend dumping him, and because he doesn't want to admit to all of his friends that she dumped him, so he told every one of them that she died.In different ways.I think after a while, he obviously ran out of lies and things to say, thus why he says:"Help me help me,I'm all out of liesAnd ways to say you died."Its pretty straightforward really, and hilarious to me.
Dog trainers love this trick because it is another way for the dog to greet people without getting too excited and jumping up. Whilst the dog is thinking about a wave he will be focused and concentrating on the trick.

We visited a historical Samurai house and were taught to make 4 kinds of ball sushi: cucumber, tuna, egg and shrimp. I positioned myself by locals just in case I needed extra help, and I did. If left on my own, the sushi would have been a disaster. We then lunched on what we made and were given soup and side dishes to go with the sushi. I always enjoy the hands on projects.
After an excellent farewell dinner in Gion district, we said good-bye to our friends the next morning as we were off to Hiroshima by bullet train. There are six of us plus our Trip Experience Leader. We are without our big luggage since that had to be taken to the airport.
You could say that about a conventional train set in general. I still think MTH was smart to make the starter sets DCS ready. It makes the starter set still useful after you build a layout with Command Control. It seems like in Lionel's line up their is a big jump from Lionchief+ to Legacy. Surprised Lionel does not have any sub $400 Legacy Locomotives.
Different philosophies and costs. You can buy a LionChief basic set for $150 street price or a more elaborate set for $50-100 more. The MTH set is going to cost you more like $250-300 street price. These are big differences for people just getting into the hobby or want a train for around the tree, menorah or Festivus pole.
How about on board batteries that eliminate the need for wiring entirely? Think of it, derailments no longer fry expensive electronics, no need to crawl around under the table looking for the elusive short or loose connection, simple train movement.
Most REAL trains operate independently with on board power. RC planes, boats, helicopters and (gasp) drones all have on board (battery) power. Why not trains? They used to have wind-up springs for power. Keep the electronics safe from shorts in the track power and make remote control model train travel more interesting on interconnected loops by making them independently powered as well. I would miss certain aspects of the old days, but it could be interesting.
If the kids in question have an xBox or Wii, the parents have already broken the $300 single-toy threshold. If the parents are trying to build a railroad empire for less than $300, they've got champagne tastes on a beer budget. If they're thinking that trains should cost what they did when they were kids (and many do), then they need to play with that CPI calculator for a little while.
When I was a kid, the happiest day of my life was when my single large oval of track and my single scout starter set came down from the attic to be set up around the tree. That happiest day was tied with every day that I got to play with it until it was put away, usually around Feb 1. Christmas after Christmas, over the first 9 years of my life, I was given extra track, some extra cars, and even a new 230 Alco diesel. The day I made two concentric loops (still with no switches) and ran two trains at once in opposite directions, I thought my head would explode.
Trying to give a kid a train empire from the git-go is a non-starter for many and I don't blame your friends for balking at the price. However, somewhere along the line, all of us have lost the basic concept that someone buys the child a serviceable starter set at a very young age and at a reasonably price, and that starter set gets added to over the years -- track, switches, cars, accessories, etc. -- until the child/children have an empire.
In the above, "all of us" includes parents AND Lionel. The manufacturers should view the sale of that modest starter set as an annuity that comes back to them in the form of additional purchases over the next 10 years until the kid either sticks with trains for good or moves on to something else. It's a perfect scenario for participation by aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends. It saddens me greatly that ALL of Lionel's marketing is not set up to encourage this to happen.
I have a bunch of old conventional trains my dad gave me that I enjoy running from time to time. I operate them using my DCS TIU on Variable 1. I supply my power using a brick. It's easy. I can switch between variable and fixed with the click of a button. I will admit that I'm still using a transformer to power my accessories. At some point I hope to turn them through my TIU as well.
In our circle of friends I'm well known as "the Train Guy", or "Uncle Conductor"- every year around the Holidays I'll set up trains in our family room and we'll invite friends with kids to come over. I've already given one kid with the train bug a Lionel PE set for his birthday, so I know the joy it can bring a young child- his parents knew he loved trains too, but like many parents they refused to pay $200+ for a Lionel starter set. Another couple we know has a 7-year old boy who just had a birthday and is a big train lover, so I'm thinking he will get a Lionel starter set soon too. My wife and I went round and round arguing about the cost of LionChief starter sets, spending $300 on a train set when Property tax is due in December, etc. I already decided that boy is getting his first Lionel set from me. I know his father will NOT buy it, despite having at least $5-10k in Comic book superhero figures and models, but I don't care- I refuse to let the next generation of O gauge model train lovers fade away.
As far as the future of train control and transformers go, IMO transformers and remotes won't go away, but radio-controlled trains will become an option too. I use Lithium-Ion battery powered tools all day at work- I'm sure that same technology will find its way into O gauge trains, allowing us to run them indoors and outside with no track power needed- just a remote, a couple of spare "fuel tanks", and a charger to to put juice in them.
I agree, most parents today won't bat an eye at a $300-$400 WII or XBox system but they see a $200 train as way too expensive for the kids. I guess it was the same back in the day when trains were the big ticket item, the gotta have toy. Mom and dad knew it was expensive but we're going to get junior one this Christmas somehow and like the game systems dad saw it as something he could play with too so that also figured into it. I know when I gave my grandson his first trains it was a full up 2 train, 2 level set up that is way beyond most parents ability to pay for or even build from the get go. It took me almost a year to build it and I already had alot of the things he got but it was still an expensive undertaking (I spent at least $125 on rattle can paints to repaint the Plasticville and some of the accessories). Granted to be able to do this is probably something mainly those of us in the hobby can do and not something a first time buyer could do but I also think it's a bit short sighted of Lionel to kill transformer sets. Not everything has to be some high tech piece of whatever. Would a remote system be nice? Sure but make it easy across the manufacturers to use like the old transformers were, a Lionel transformer could run Marx and American Flyer equipment and vice versa, there was no need to flip this switch or setup for that engine or adjust some setting to make it work or didn't involve me having to cobble something together to make them all play nice together. 0852c4b9a8
