Hmm, you're plagiarizing Webster's dictionary, I just found this article under the word Irony.

Winner for January. February issue is coming out this Sunday. Newsletter to be released first Sunday of each month.

I like this a lot, so much that I want to make it a regular each month. Can you put together the future March 2008 edition of Classic Model Railroading? Anyone have any ideas for Tyco4Fun?

Actually, a guy named Dave Vollmer on the Model Railroader forum is the creator of the 'Classic Model Railroading' covers.

I thought it was original work, I'll contact him to clear that up. We can make our own spoof mag covers I'm sure.

So much for ORIGINAL HUMOR. I created this, along with 2 other fictional Classic Model Railroading issues as a spoof in the MR Forums.

Guess I'll need to put copyright info on all of my images now.

I didn't think we tried to pass other people's work off as our own in this hobby...

Hey thanks for your input Dave. Please see my post just above yours. Apologies were in order. I'll make sure to delete your work. It was an honest mistake on my part as explained above.

Thanks. It's not so much the usage that bothers me, just the lack of proper acknowledgement.

Your idea is great and I'm thinking about doing something like this myself, a spoof cover but specifically to Tyco. I would feel the same way you do so that is the exact reason I asked for ORIGINAL work. I don't apologize for others (a bad habit IMO) but you deserve an apology. Hint, hint.

It was included in the newsletter that went out but I removed it there also. The newsletter is dynamic as far as the graphics go and that graphic was replaced with a sheet of white.

I'm glad you stopped by the forums none the less. If you browse around you'll find we're a pretty good group and it's probably one of the friendliest places around. What happened here with you is very unusual, that's not what we're about.

I came up with this while watching a 150MPH Acela while a High speed internet commercial came one.
You know, all this talk about high speed internet makes no sense. Just book a ticket on the Acela Express and you really can have "High Speed Internet"
