Fate works itself out funny, doesn’t it, **Whammo**? I hardly thought a month ago that I’d find myself besotted to a flirtatious and gorgeous Swede, and here I am now exhausting nearly every resource I have for a chance to fly to her country to meet her.

But, I, being a gentleman, realise that **Anniz** is hardly property and thus not something one fights over. So, I shall spit in the face of your so-called “laws” and politely decline your challenge.

Note, too, that I have not even scanned your roster to see if such a battle is in fact winnable; it probably is, I’m fairly happy with my roster this season. However, I’m declining out of respect for fair Anniz.

If it makes you happy, though, you may just defeat me this weekend, and if that gives you comfort, so be it. I’ll be 0-1, and you’ll be 1-0, but I’ll still have Anniz. 🙂

Respecfully, but with tongue firmly in cheek,

Montfort

You’re my hero **Montfort**.

I hope you can fix the vaccation from your job,  
it would suck if that should stop you from coming here.  
Can’t it be November soon…

And thanks for the e-meil,  
I will go and smile all the day  
because of it.:D:D:D:D

Me thinks you’re doing something a _bit_ wrong, girl.

Well, **I’m** glad I know what she meant.

Don’t listen to him, Anniz, he’s just jealous. (smiley omitted)

I think we should all send **Montfort** one dollar ($1) so he can meet this fine, charming, charismatic woman, **Anniz**.

No tut-tutting, this isn’t charity, this is helping the cause of men everywhere. Good luck and God speed.

**Chiefy** : Go away. You have your own birds to chase after.

**Whammo** : You go away, too. That wasn’t even remotely amusing.

**Anniz** : Thank you again, darling. I hope you never cease to amaze me as you have these past two days. You stay right there, I’ll be there shortly.

Well I guess this answers the topic on how far someone would go to meet someone.

That would be most appreciated, Chief. Or, is the Ike sailing east again anytime soon? Mind dropping me off in Stockholm on the way?

Alas, the IKE (All uppercase = ship; Upper-lower = the man) shan’t be heading eastward anytime soon.

Maybe a couple of changing tips?
