The few times I've been in SoCal, Xol's and my schedules conflicted.  But someday.  I was looking forward to meeting a certain Toledoian too but that didn't work out.

Is    " must meet in meat space "    Toledoian code for    " must meat in meet space " ?

... If so you might have a point, Type may apply.

Ditto.  Xolly, if you're ever in the midwest, let me know.  I don't make it out west very often, but if I do, you're on my own short list of good people to look up.   :-)

When you went to northern Kentucky last year you had to drive right by me.  Did you call?  Didn't I tell you to?

I think you're just anti-social.

When I was in college i had a job scanning engineering size schematics during second shift.  They took about a 1/2 hour each to scan.  I had another PC and played Wolfenstein 3D all the damn time after everyone else left at 5pm.  Good times

Obama just needs to pick Jimmy Carter as his veep and introduce him as "someone who really knows how to fix a stumbling economy."

There are days when I am dead-ass wrong regarding an issue or form an opinion without having full knowledge of a situation. (I call those days 'weekedays')

So, Mr. Olympic Wrestler, I hereby apologize for calling you a whiny little shit with an entitlement complex.
