Hey, Y’all Just wanted to issue a blanket welcome to what I like to call the biggest dysfunctional family on the internet!😃 As you will no doubt have noticed, I make my home in the big metropolis of Dallas, and I’m open for lunch and/or a beer (if you’re buyin’!😃 - JK) Anyway, it’s good to see y’all!

Well, a big ol’ howdy doo to you **Quasimodem**! I’m not a new Jawja doper being as I’ve been around here for almost two years now. I am in south GA (Leesburg, baby!) and wouldn’t mind doing lunch/dinner/drinks with anybody who happens to be around here or passing through. ---

is “New Georgia” anywhere near “New Mexico”? Aw… me of all people picking on a simple typo. It’s wrong, I know. ---

Old Georgia doper checking in, Quasi! Did you have your Dylan party last weekend? I’m in Decatur, and would be happy to meet you at the Brick Store for a brewski - I’ll even buy! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by j.c. \* > \*\*is “New Georgia” anywhere near “New Mexico”? > > Aw… me of all people picking on a simple typo. It’s wrong, I know. \*\* Ah **HAH**! 😃 It wasn’t a typo and you are correct as well! There **is** a community just southwest of Dallas called New Georgia! But I bet you knew that already didn’tcha, you rascal? 😉 **Labdad** : Of course I knew you were from “our fair state”, but didn’t know how to approach you for a meet. Good on you for taking the initiative and I’m sending you an e-mail! I had the Dylan party, yes, but it was an imaginary one! Loved every minute of it, and didn’t even have to drive home! 😃 **1ofthegulls** : Thanks for jumping in! Hope to meet you sometime! **Swampbear** : I may just take you up on that offer, baby! I travel a lot and am very flexible! Glad to see Georgia well-represented on SDMB! Maybe y’all can help me corral my thoughts into coherency! Q ---

Hey, **1ofthegulls** , I’m in Duluth! We’re neighbors! (Almost! **Quasi** , I used to go out Dallas way when I worked on computers for IBM, but it’s been quite a few years since I’ve been out there. I bet (like everywhere) it’s built up a lot out there! ---

I’m not exactly new, having been on the board for a couple years and a Cecil fan for almost 20 years. For the last 10 years, I’ve lived in Duluth. ---

Also checking in from GA. Little town of Ball Ground is where I call home, but I work in down town ATL. Long drive, but worth it to avoid the problems of living downtown. -Belz ---
