I’ve been mentioned three times! Woohoo! ALthough not by Demo…my life is over.
I’m with Omni…most of hte people I’d still like to meet are in Cali: Demo, Doob, PCW, pricciar, psycat, Gawd, baglady…
And then we have just the random people:
Ayesha
Coldy Clogs (what I really wanna do is go to a Rush concert with Coldy.)
soulsling
manhattan
Eve
Mr. Cynical (TAINTED???)
techchick
SanibelMan
SouthernStyle
SuaSponte
purplebear
VestalBlue
Homer
And a ton of people I’m sure I forgot…looks like I’ve got plenty more Dopefests to attend.
I’m omitting the Dopers who I’ll be meeting at the Las Vegas Dope-fest this weekend.
aha - Western Union! Doo-da-doo-doo-doo-doo doo-da-doo-doo-doo-doo…
Alphagene - I want to show him my collection of stuffed animals and introduce him to my kitty cat (moderator suck-up #1, well, not much of a suck-up there)
AntiPro
Arnold Winkelreid - Damn smart (moderator suck-up #2)
Athena - she likes camping and beer. What more can you ask for? Hoping to meet her at the beginning of October
Bio-Brat - teaches biology. I like science teachers.
Bluepony
BunnyGirl - hope to see her in September, if I’m in Arizona when she passes through, that is!
CKDextHavn - also damn intelligent (moderator suck-up #3).
ColdFire
Democritus
Diane
Drain Bead - NTN Trivia and karaoke. I’m there!
DrFidelus
Falcon - couldn’t make it to the Las Vegas Dopefest. Hope we hook up at another gathering.
Gr8kat
jjjfishe - breaks my stereotype about gorgeous young ladies being snobby and inarticulate.
Jodi - a good email buddy. She still hasn’t invited me to stay in her dad’s cabin on the lake though.
Kyla
manhatten - seems like an overall friendly, humorous guy (moderator suck-up #4)
Michi
Milossarian - has the same favorite books that I do. We could spend manny hours discussing Heller and Salinger.
Mr. Cynical - even though he doesn’t want to meet mesniff.
Mullinator - fellow Ga Tech alum. Cracks me up with his one liners.
Omniscient - fellow aerospace engineering major. Sounds like a blast to party with, although it may result in my death.
Pluto - another (former aerospace?) engineer. Seems like someone with whom I’d enjoy salmon fishing.
Ruffian - DeathLlama can just stay at home.
Satan
Sue Duhnym - I could terrorize her with nose-job horror stories.
TN*hippie
tomndebb - knows just about everything and articulates it well.
UncleBeer - another engineer. Hope to tip back a few with him at a future Doper gathering (moderator suck-up #5).
Zette - seems like a good person, although I wouldn’t want to piss her off!
And yes, there are plenty others. I’d really like to meet just about everyone who posts to this message board.
Despite having already met a fair number of Dopers/Fathomers from MD/DC/VA/NC (plus one each from TN and CA - you know who you are!), there’s still quite a bunch I’d really like to get to know.
Let me be the first to mention Kimstu, whose posts on everything from mathematics to politics have been completely wonderful.
Not that that means any of the following are exactly chopped liver:
SuaSponte
SouthernStyle
SingleDad
tomndebb
Gaudere
Democritus
psycat90
Dr. Watson
Highlander
MajorMD (now SUEp du Jour on the Fathom board)
neuro-trash grrrl
SwimmingRiddles
Techchick
ultress
And a bunch of others that I’ll remember within five minutes of clicking ‘Submit Reply’.
I would love to meet everyone. My top choices only because:
aha (my best buddy)
Manhattan (to see if his name matches the city)
Euty (cause I cried when I read his post to the best friend thread)
Ike (cause he’s such a southern boy)
and many many others…everyone on the board is interesting in one respect or another and if I had the chance I’d go to all the doperfests.
I’ve already met Montfort and Valerieblaise IRL, and Alphagene is an old friend of mine. I’ve seen Olentzero sing some jaw-dropping karaoke.
I’d like to meet pretty much everyone, and I want to avoid one of those “choosing sides for gym class” moments by leaving people out. Of course all the SDMB titans like Ayesha, Coldfire, and the Chief go without saying, but here goes:
Dry
Hamadryad
Struuter
Chef Troy
Doctor J
Moe
sdimbert
Tomcat
Dinsdale
CrankyAsAnOldMan
Black12
oldscratch
Tiggeril
Lynn Bodoni
Really, that’s why I didn’t want to make a list in the first place. I can’t think of one person who I wouldn’t look forward to meeting. Hell, I even liked Phaedrus. Sure, he was psycho, but he was a very literate psycho. I can respect that.
Tally, of course, the intent on the original list would have been to meet both you and Joph. It won’t happen again.
Silo, duuuuuuude!
Strain, man, psycat and I were this close to going this weekend. I found out I was on call though.
My memory isn’t that good so, if I forget anyone, please post that I forgot to mention you and I’ll rectify that.
Cessandra
Satan
Eutychus
David B.
Pldennison(who used to live a few blocks from me, but did he ever want to meet?)
Peta
evilbeth
techchick
Falcon
Byz!
kellibelli
Sealemon
Drain
Gaudere
Demo, if you find out at the very last minute that you’re off call, for whatever reason, you and psycat (oh yeah, also meant to list psycat) are still welcome to show. We’ll make room for you!
I’d love to meet globe-trotter, byz, coldy, rysdad, eve, uncle beer, ayesha, doob and pricciar. All have such a great sense of humour and such varied interests and lifestyles.
