I used to be Bibliovore

I honestly don’t recall. I’m terrible with names and faces, particularly when it was a one-time thing 16 years ago. :slight_smile: If I recall correctly, most of the logistics was set up on the old NADS (Not American Dopers?) board (since defunct?) by, I think, Paul/berserker (probably not the right spelling of the screen name). Most of the crawl was on the Embankment, I think, and there was a massive open air book sale in progress at the time. You have no idea the amount of self control I showed; the entire crawl could have come to a halt right then and there.

I remember that dopefest. It was in the Chandos on St. Martin’s Lane. Crusoe and (can’t remember her board name) are married with two kids now. MoMac, who was known as CurlyChick back in the day says “hi”. Some of that gang are doing a Zoom call tonight around 8:30, I can PM you the link if you like.

The good news about the new platform is that we all started over as young and slim as we want to be.

Oi Bib! Good to see you here, man!

Jennyrosity.

Welcome back!

I remember you, and I’m horrible at remembering names. But I always liked yours.

Hah! I know the feeling! My board name isn’t “Bibliovore” for nothing!

Oh my god, they’re married? That’s amazing And I was there when they met! I’m part of their official history!

Bless you, thank you. I’ve always liked that username too. I use it as often as I can online :slight_smile:

I’m not sure if your name is familiar because I’ve seen a post by you or if you’ve just been mentioned in one of the threads about people who are missed on the dope, but I do recognize the name.

Either way, Welcome Back!

Hah!, Excellent! I that case I’m happy to confirm that I still have the six-pack I had in 2004, although I’m still as bald as ever.

Gyrate! Great to see you too buddy! Glad you’re still here. I take it you’re still well-read, witty and American, or have you let yourself these past years?

People that were missed? I’d love to see that thread. :slight_smile:

Thanks buddy! Good to be back!

I remember you. Welcome back!

Here you go

Still well-read, now have dual UK/US citizenship, and attempt to be witty on occasion. Tempus fugit.

garius and Becks got hitched (to each other) too, and a couple of the others got married to more sensible people who don’t spend all their free time on internet messageboards. Those wedding bells are breaking up that old gang of ours …

Jesus I feel old.

Thanks! I notice my name isn’t on there (ouch), but just reading so many of those names again was wonderful.

So what are you up to these days? If you have dual citizenship, do you still get to vote?
