Oh, forgot:
Shot from Guns - Someone with whom I usually agree. Also, a wicked awesome way for two human cannonballs to get married.
I don’t have to do this all in one sitting, do I?
Leaffan and I are about as far away from each other, politically, as it is possible to be, and yet he is a really good man and I respect him very much. I seem to recall he comes from about 50km away from where my mother was born.
Cunctator sings in an Australian choir based out of Sydney, and I always enjoy finding out what they are singing. I missed one of their broadcasts by about 15 minutes, and there was much gnashing of teeth.
Gorsnak once built a theremin, and lives in the same province as Northern Piper, though amusingly, further north. My parents lived in the same city as Gorsnak from 1980 until 2005, and it is very beautiful.
Savannah and I have almost exactly the same tastes in radio programs.
WordMan has an incredible passion for the guitar, which is matched only by his encyclopedic knowledge. He is also interesting for being remarkably well acquainted with music that is outside his tastes…
Inigo Montoya not only has an easily recognized user name, but I also know him for his wild imagination and surreal sense of seque.
Cat Whisperer I should have said something right away, because now no-one is going to believe me. Cat Whisperer posted something about how CBC programming sounded just ‘dreadful’ about a week ago, and something about the writing made me say to myself “Hang on, that sounds like something featherlou would have said.”
Furlibusea turns out to be someone I had the honour to meet at the Banff School of Fine Arts in the early eighties. I had not run into her in about 27 years…
An Arky - I have one of his albums, and it’s really good.
That’s all for this evening, but this is fun.
**Le Ministre de l’au-delà ** - has the name that I apparently can’t spell, so I didn’t put it in my index card list, although I tried to search for it. His name is from a song by a group from Quebec, and he always weighs in thoughtfully on any Canadian question. Also, he plays guitar.
Perhaps her spirit [strikethrough] infested [/strikethrough] someone on the boards again.
The world will never know.
Psst – if you ever want to really do that, the secret word is [del].
Thanks. Couldn’t remember what it was.
Infested?! Or…blessed?
Infested. Clearly. Good riddance, I say!
Whoa! Thanks for the kind words, sir - and back at you; you are clearly one of those Expert Dopers I was referring to, given your focus on music and voice performance at a highly-trained professional level…
Him. After upwards of twelve thousand posts… oh, who cares? :rolleyes:
I have one or two other shticks, but if that’s the one that makes the lasting impression… *sighs and wanders off.
Oh damn. I forgot WordMan. We haven’t met, and we haven’t always had 100% agreement, but I respect his knowledge of guitar and music, and I suspect he’d be a lot of fun to have a beer and jam with.
And back at you, too - you clearly know your way around both music and guitar-playing…and it’s the places that artists disagree that things get interesting!
And beer? Beer is good.
Cat Fight - good feminist.
eleanorrigby- Unhappily married, has strong opinions and writes about them well.
**Sampiro **- *brilliant *writer, a bit defensive about the South.
Quartz- unemployed, patriotic British guy.
chowder - Oldish British guy who loves cats.
Diogenes- used to love his posting style; still appreciate it on certain subjects.
Really Not All that Bright - British, Indian ethnicity, now lives in the US.
MeanOldLady - most of what you all said. Her personality comes across really strongly.
**Nzinga, Seated **- black woman living in a ghetto area, like reading her posts, she’s not remotely precious or afraid to admit a lack of knowledge. Unpretentious and interesting. Initial controversy over username…
**astro **- I usually read his thread titles and feel he’s trying to prove a point I definitely don’t agree with.
And hates gnomes.
Can you accurately name a Doper who likes gnomes? 
I can honestly say that if my neighbor started putting out gnomes on his lawn I would be an unindicted co-conspirator within about three days.
“Put those two over there like they’re getting jiggy!”
“Give this one little binoculars and aim him at the neighbor-lady’s window!”
“Put that one flat on his back with an empty fifth of vodka on the lawn beside him!”
Well, as you no doubt know from your ‘catting around’ days, ‘fucking’ with something is in no way the same thing as liking them! ;)
I like gnomes. Can you guess why?
Heh heh heh - my hatred for CBC proceeds me.
Cat Fight - someone who I would like to get in a fight with someday so we could have a catfight, except I usually agree with her. 
If I remember correctly, RuedeDay, a former Doper, liked gnomes and had them in his gardens.
I’ve got to get out of the MMP more, nobody knows me.
