Inigo Montoya. He just seems really sweet and funny in an attractive way, too bad he’s far too young for me and too far away. 
Fairychatmom, she’s very funny and down to earth, and has a lot of great wisdom.
Some of the harsher posters. I’d just die of curiosity to see if they’re that “mean” in real life.
I would definitely like to have a beer with Chronos sometime. I like the way he thinks. And we only live a couple of hours apart.
Exapno Mapcase and I don’t always agree, but we seem to have a lot in common and I’d like to get to know him better.
Anaamika fascinates me. Especially since she has knowledge of things that interest me that I don’t know much about.
I haven’t run into Blake in many social-type threads, but I’ve enjoyed arguing both with him and against him, so he’s definitely on my list.
Then there’s tomndebb, Colibri, Qadgop the Mercotan, and Q.E.D., just to name the ones who come directly to mind.
My God, what have I created?
From my heart, and from my hand, why don’t people understand
My intention?
Is it real?
It’s my creation!
You know, I could compose a massive list of every poster here that I’d like to share a drink with sometime, but it would probably be easier to say “Everyone!” than name specific people and end up leaving people out by accident.
Of course, perhaps those of us here who are shooters could organise the 1st Annual SDMB International Postal Rifle Shoot?
I’d say the 1st Annual SDMB International Drinking Contest, but with the cost of airfares, accommodation, and bail ;), I just can’t see it being a viable venture anytime soon…

Damn yes! How come I’ve never seen you in a picture thread, Carlyjay? You’re in the top 5 of “Hot Doper Women”.
[/QUOTE]
Yes, she was in the monster picture thread that I started not too long ago.
And I concur. Cute. I’d hit that.
[QUOTE=Anaamika]
She has red hair! Waaa! insanely jealous
[/QUOTE]
Umm… Anaamika… I have seen you in picture threads and, well… you have no need to be. Just sayin’.
Well, slap me silly and call me Susan. Thanks again, folks.
I remembered a couple more people. Diogenes the Cynic… and who started that thread a couple of weeks ago about their surreal day? You remember… the one where their cat said “Now, Mama!” and some Frenchman on a rooftop threw roses at her feet? Who WAS that? I’ve searched and searched. Whoever that was, she’s on the list, too.

You know, that could be fun! I rarely actually get out and shoot these days, but I’m taking the kids camping next weekend to a place where I can plink away to my heart’s content. I was going to bring the BB gun, pellet gun, and .22 for them anyway, I might as well bring my target gun too.
Of course, I’ll lose to those of you who actually practice, but every competition needs someone who’ll be last, doesn’t it? Give me a quick note of the distance this week and I’ll join you and we can organize at our leisure. (I haven’t done that sort of thing since college, so I’m quite rusty on the mechanics of it.)
[QUOTE=The Flying Dutchman]
I would enjoy meeting just about every doper who participates in GD and the more serious pit threads, but one doper stands out for me. That is gum who to me is a sister in spirit and one who I have a great deal of respect for.
[/QUOTE]
I forgot about gum. I love gum. 
And I don’t wanna go on any SDMB shooting tour. Not that I don’t wanna shoot, but you get people who fight all the time in the Pit and GD together with guns in their hands, what do you expect? See?
Let me add Colibri, and my SO would also love to meet Colibri. My SO is all crazy about birds. I am too, but his knowledge surpasses mine in a heartbeat.
Priceguy, thank you, but I used to have (a dark auburn) red hair. And I want it back! Thus my jealousy. Noy my hair is almost, but not quite, [del]tea[/del] black.

Yes ma’am! Shall we end the hijack and take this elsewhere?
Pending a permission slip from Frank, I’ll start a new thread. Martini Enfield, if you don’t have your email posted (haven’t checked yet) can you email me? [/hijack]

I have been overtaken by events.
I was going to suggest that the MPSIMS mods be asked, as I thought it was an MPSIMS thread, but, whatever. Personally, I have no issue with the thread.
Oops, I thought you were. Sorry! Cajun Man or Skip, OK with you?
hmm… not sure I would want to meet any dopers actually. I would hate for the carefully structured mental image I have of certain posters would be shattered. If I dont meet anyone, than everyone is what I think they are.
Kinda like when you hear your favorite book on tape and the guy reading it says the name different than you hear it in your head when your reading.
On re-reading that sentence, it’s probably nothing like that actually.
[QUOTE=JimSox5]
I usually try to avoid that particular Citgo, unlike the majority of my fellow Wallies. However, if you think you see me in Kroger, you’ve probably got a pretty good shot.
Also, I vote that, from this moment forward, you speak to all those folks that you believe are me. If you’re wrong, everybody gets a story to tell, right? 
[/QUOTE]
Okay, I second that vote. I can hear it now… “Hey, some crazy broad said she thought I looked like someone she knows from a message board…”

Then its agreed. I think I’ll write up a contract.

I don’t believe anybody has mentioned Kyla in this thread. She always struck me as very interesting and very nice.
[/QUOTE]
Well geez, and here I was thinking this thread confirmed my belief that I am a quiet nonentity on this here MB. Thanks for the ego boost!
Most of my favorite Dopers I’ve had the good fortune to have met already. (Is that why they’re my favorites? Possibly.) I’d like to meet mhendo, because I can’t remember ever disagreeing with any of his posts, AND he’s a vegetarian baseball fan (like ME, the most important person in my life), and jjimm, whom I like a great deal. For some reason, he deleted his LiveJournal, which makes me sad. And Guinastasia, who’s a lot braver than I am, to wade into debates and arguments that scare me. Oh, and Shirley Ujest, who sent me a very sweet email awhile ago that really made my day. I don’t know why we never met when I lived in Michigan, darn.
