I was thinking - being in England i tend to be here at different times to all you Merkins (and therefore have _much_ faster loading times MWAHAHAHA), but there are several posters who are often posting at the same time as me. Among this catagory are: **jr8** **SPOOFE** **silent\_rob** **Redboss** **spooje** All these posters give me a warm funny feeling (leave it… leave it!) because i recognise their names, they’re funny and intelligent and i know they’re here when i am. But there are also posters i _wish_ i was here at the same time as (falls down grammar hole). I wish i shared screen time with: **jarbaby** **Fenris** **Coldfire** (although we are occasionally here “together”) **Esprix** **matt\_mcl** **Duck Duck Goose** **scylla** So… who’s in your merry band of posters-you-share-screen-time-with? And who would you like to be? And should this be in IMHO? Fran ---

I forgot to add **Tequila Mockingbird** to the second list. ---

I like the fact that among others, **Commander Fortune** , **tater** , **Twisty** , **Coldie** , and **Euty** are usual on-line during the same time period I am. Most of them are on in the later part of the time I’m on but I like getting to see their posts early in the morning! As for other individuals I would like to be on-line with, I’m not sure. I would like to be on-line during some of the important stuff, though. I always seem to miss it until late. ---

I’m usually online with the college crowd and various people who read the boards at work. Either group has too many members for me to list 'em all:) As for who I’d like to be on more with . . . well, the only hours I realistically can’t be online are 3-7 AM Monday through Friday, and classes of course, and parts of the weekend. So unless there’s someone who follows that style of posting . . . 🙂 ---

Since I generally prefer to work in the evenings, this leaves lunchtime and late night/early mornings for posting and chat. I generally post alongside such nightowls as **iampunha** , **robgruver** , the Australian contingent, and whoever else is up. Robin ---

I’m in Asia, so usually I’m on when virtually no one else is on… ☹ I’d like to be on with _ANYONE_ else!! [sup]is that a pathetic cry for help, or what?[/sup] ---

Thanks for thinking of me, **Francesca**. 🙂 **SPOOFE Bo Diddley** seems to eerily follow me around the board, posting right after me every time I do… it’s creepy! 😉 Esprix ---

Very cool, **Francesca** ; thank you for such kind comments about me. I didn’t think I was noticed very much. 🙂 I’m kinda on weird hours. Some days I’m on in the morning, some days in the afternoon, some days in the evening, and most days very late at night. Because of that, I can’t really name all of the posters I notice as being on at the same time, because there’s a lot. **SPOOFE** , though, is a poster that I notice as being on at the same time as me late at night, (or early morning, depending on how you look at it) when nobody else is. As for posters that I’d like to be on with more, I’m not sure. There’s a lot of posters whose posts I really enjoy, but I seem to be on with them at one time or another. **Shayna** ’s one poster I don’t seem to be on at the same time too much with. She seems really cool and I enjoy her posts, so I suppose I’d say her for one. ---

I usually am on for about an hour in the morning before work… then often at night… But the morning people are the ones that seem to click in my mind a little more, maybe because it’s a little slower now. Some, but not all: **Euty** **ChiefScott** **IceWolf** **screech-owl** Those are the ones I remember time after time, and even seem to interact with on more than one occassion… ---

Sure True Pisces…forget about me ☹ And it seems a certain Doper is on the same times I am but…maybe that’s how we planned it=well at least one night until we were scolded…then we went to email 🙂 ---

I’m on mostly mornings, and the odd late night. I don’t have a clue who’s on then, sadly. ---

Nice to be on at the same time as your better half. \*\* Once again I show signs of slipping into senility. How did I forget my wife? Oh yeah, it’s that lack of sleep followed by toddlers followed by caffeine. Nerves are jumpy and not connecting right. Yeah, that’s it.
