I’d like to meet you. sandyr is organizing a Minnesota Dope Fest for November 11. Are you a far distance from us? If not, come and meet us. If so, then I guess virtual greetings will have to suffice. Have I seen you at GD and GQ? I haven’t been at GQ as much lately; Lib is gone for a while. ☹ He’s another one I’d like to meet. We have so much fun disagreeing with each other. See ya around. -----🙂 —////\\ ---

Ms. Spider: Thanks for the kind words, both in this thread and the other one. I’d love to meet you in Minnesota – except I live in Boston. Unfortunately, there’s no chance of my getting over there. I’d love to, though. The only time I was in Minneapolis I was there on business and didn’t get to see the city. I DID go to the Boston Dopefest. Maybe we can old another sometime. And I’ll keep an eye out for your popsts. ---

My sympathies, then… Yeesh…while I do like some of the Phillie players, I think there’s more hope for the Flyers or the 76ers (if Iverson would pass the ball and if Larry Brown will stick around long enough for them to contend, which he won’t) than the Phillies! (Not sure about the Eagles–that one could go either way.) > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Frannie \* > \*\*Gosh, I miss exciting Cleveland Browns football.

It looks like I am really late. This would be a lot easier to mention the three posters who I most definately would not like to meet. Well, if you can’t guess them then I will keep quiet. 🙂 I would really like to meet everyone who mentioned me earlier. Thanks and a big warm fuzzy out to you guys. 🙂 Oh well, I am not going to write in the people here because I know I will leave too many out. I will start another thread about something else and see if that gets responses. HUGS! Sqrl ---

To those who actually want to meet me . . . or remembered me, or whatever (this being DRY, iksova and Scotticher): Words cannot express this, but don’t let that stop me. This is a very happifying thing for me:) Thank you. I can’t right now think of anyone I wouldn’t want to meet. There are those I’d like to meet more than others, but that’s irrelevant. I am going to operate under the assumption that certain other dopers merely forgot my name . . . ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by iampunha \* > \*\*I am going to operate under the assumption that certain other dopers merely forgot my name . . . \*\* Right, that’s what happened here. I’d now like to officially add um . . . aw hell, who is this again? (checking the name on the post I’m quoting) Right! I would now like to officially add **iampunter** to my list, because football players are always held in high regard to me and the punter is . . . oh, that’s _iampunha_? What’s a _punha_? Oh well, he’s on the list anyway, he seems like a pretty cool guy. ---

And I suppose I ought to rejoin this three way, mutual admiration society with **Iampunha** and **Crunchy Frog** , by belatedly adding **Crunchy Frog** to my list, 'specially seeing how since the latter (when he was Bratman) had me on his list. Actually, I would have done so earlier, but I was trying to figure out which name\*\* “the poster formerly known as Bratman” \*\*became. I’d have guessed “Anthrax Ripple” or “The Bishop” myself. ---

Wowie wowie! I made three lists! _jumps up and down excitedly and then falls down exhausted_ Thanks you guys! I’ve been really depressed lately and that really made my day! :^) I’d make a list, but I hate to leave people out. You people know who you are. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by CalMeacham \* > \*\*Damn! > > Doesn’t anybody want to meet me? > > (Sniff) \*\* I had a dream about you a while back. Or at least I dreamt about your name. I dreamt I was in a bookstore searching for anything written by Cal Meacham. I think you were supposed to be a Neil Gaiman-esque graphic novelist. Or maybe you were an artist. Anyway, I was looking for Sandman-type graphic novels with your name on them. I guess Cal Meacham just sounds like a good author-type name. Do you write? We _have_ to meet now so we can analyze this further. ---

Dear heart- I can assure you that my love DRY is not interested in any kind of three-way anything with two men. Trust me. He was just being kind, as he always is, and indicating that he would like to meet the two of you. You can trust me on this. I on the other hand, put the three of you on MY list, and…oh, never mind.
