There’s a gay recruitment thread going on right now. Maybe you could swing over there and turn somebody? ---

Shhhh! Don’t be so loud about recruiting or the Gay Army will come over here and smoke us all out of our holes. They’re armed and fabulous. ---

Ditto the “put me on the wacky story mailing list” plea! In fact, I almost wish there could be a Daily Sampiro column or email that I could read each morning, just to get a flavor of your wonderful storytelling to start my day off right. 🙂 And you know, sir, you can offer me your seat on a train any day. ---

I’d like to send you a wave and a hug too Samp! And may I please go on that mailing list too? You and Mister Wang-Ka were one of the main reasons I signed up, and more than once your posts have caused unfortunate tea + computer interfaces! Best wishes Ying ---

Ya know, just posting the story here would be quicker than keeping track of all these email addresses! But if you’re determined to go email, I want to be on that list, please. ---

I’m not gay, but willing to try if it will improve the narrative. So, How \*you \* doin’? I am intrigued by your ideas and would like to subscribe to your mailing list also. ---

Yes, please, tell me more about this 2800-year-old, hysterical-deafness-inducing mummy! Glad to hear you’re doing OK. ---

I think of you often, too, **Sampiro** ; in fact I’ve been waiting for you to come back to your Gone with the Wind thread so we can continue talking about madames. I hope you still have me on your Send Me Stories email list. ---

Just yesterday I was listinning to a guy with a southern accent, tell a long, hilarious story about some family drama, all hand-gesturing and doing characters in their voice and I thought: “This sounds like I imagine Sampiro”, and I wondered this too! Glad to hear you’re making it, and keeping your head through it all. ---

[QUOTE=yingtongtiddleipo] You and Mister Wang-Ka were one of the main reasons I signed up [/QUOTE] Same! I love **Sampiro** ’s stories about his momma, or really, about anything. He’s a damn good writer and has a great sense of humor. And **Master Wang-Ka** (is it Master or Mister? Can’t remember. Whatever) is the other half of the equation for me joining - I read an old thread of his about scaring Jehova’s Witnesses in his underwear and I was sold. Sampiro, I hope everything goes well, that there’s a funny story out of it, and that I can please be on that e-mail list? _bats eyelashes_ I’m a bisexual female, but what the hell. How YOU doin’?? 😉 ~Tasha ---

Wait…what? Your sister got into a screaming match with a mummy, who then developed hysterical deafness as a defense mechanism? Yesh, you’d better email me with the real story so I stop sreading erroneous fact. ---

Well, at least you’re not _bored_…glad things are at least ok with your mom’s health. Can’t wait to hear the rest. Email’s in the profile and since I am an _ahem_ _editor_ with _ahem\*\*connections_…no, really. I’m very well-connected. Kneebones connected to the thigh bones, thigh bones connected to the hip…well, you get the idea. Hope things stay status quo or better. ---
