If you could meet ONE of your fellow GAH-board members, who would it be? Why would you want to meet them? Would you go to see them or would you have them come see you? Would you meet halfway? I think this is fun to talk about. We have talked about conferences and such...we have also talked about regional conferences and get togethers (some of us). It seems the best we can muster is to chat on AIM and the like...and then not everyone or very frequently. So, if there were no restrictions barred, which GAH MEMBER would you like to meet and why? (I say MEMBER because I know people would like to meet the cast...that is not what THIS thread wants to know).  |

Oh man, just ONE?? If I can only pick one, it'd have to be Jo. For many reasons. (Not fair limiting to one, 'cause I've never met my fellow Maniacs MrsM and silve in person  ) |

I am curious to know all your reasons to meet Jo over your fellow Maniacs, especially as they are members of this forum too...even if never present.  |

I don't know, but it'd be neat if several of us could group together and go on a walkfest or something. Those you walk, but you can chat and see some sights. Except I'm sure that it'd be some who'd rather not walk, you'd be surprised at how much fun it is. |

I agree that group meetings are best if they can be arranged. But if you could just meet one other member, who would it be and why? |

Well, of Silverhammer and MrsMaxwell, which do I choose? I adore them both. I adore Jo too. So I chose her. SOME of the reasons I'd like to meet her is she cracks me up no end. She's very intelligent. She loves MASH, Star Trek and GAH. (Granted, it's DS9, but that's okay, that's my second favorite Trek series after the original). Granted, if I flew to the Northeast, I'd take the chance to meet both Jo and MrsM. And Lauren. Silve's down south, so I might do that too and ride across AL to MS and visit my family at the same time. |

Oh, good god. What happened here. Don't visit the boards, and people are already planning on making road trips to visit me and Mr. Noir ... Hey, would that count as two people you'd visit?
Anyway, thanks for the kind words. I'd be happy to meet you too, next time I am in your town, BW (which is not out of the range of possibilites, as I do travel a bit).
Now, as for me, of course I'd like to meet BW, my main Bill competit..... hey!!! WAIT A MINUTE!! I GET IT! BW wants to meet ME so that she can do the wacky smacky and get me out of the way... Oh boy... she's got Johnny the Dancer to put a hit out on me. I know it... I know it...
She knows when I've been sleeping (with him)
She knows when I'm awake (with him)
She knows when I've been bad and good (with him)
**sigh**
Seriously, I'm like some of you other folks. I can't just say one person. And if I say one, maybe I'd miss someone else, who I would want to meet just as much?
So I won't mention any names... Instead, why don't you figure it out...
THE PERSON I WOULD MOST LIKE TO MEET
There's the one who'd make a great other half of my vaudeville team.
There's also that one who comes and goes all the time. I love to see them post, and wish they did more often...
Then there's that one who lives just a few hours away from me, who I drive past their house ALL THE FRIGGIN TIME on my many road trips... STILL haven't been invited in to play!!! GRRRR!
Oh... and then there's the AIM buddy that I share those private inside jokes with...
And that one who's got the GREAT banner. Cracks me up every time!
Oh, and the one with all that detailed GAH knowledge tucked away. So many details...
Oh, and the screen cappin' genius who cracks me up every time.
And also the one who gets me screen caps, cause they know I can't grab them myself, yet.
And the One-Line Wonder Kid. I'd love to meet that one...
And then there's that artistic one....
Oh, and that one who writes the great stories....
Actually, I think these fit more than one person... So you can understand how I can't make a choice.
Really, you all crack me up... I'd love to meet any of you (except for that chain saw carrying one... notice I didn't mention you above.... yeah. You know who you are.  )

Funny, Jo. Maybe that IS one of the unmentioned reasons that BW wants to meet up with you. I like your vague descriptions that fit a number of people too. I am like the rest of you...it is hard to pick just one member (especially since some of you probably remember some of the OLDER members who have not been around for a while). I have favorites some days and then they change depending on my mood (somewhat like my favorite character does). For the moment, I am still thinking on it, but I will admit that it is hard, but that is what makes it so fun. If you only had one chance and one person you could meet from here, who would it be? |

Hey, that chainsaw came in real handy after this windstorm, going around salvaging wood to sell to people at exhorbitant (sp?) prices for the NEXT multiple-day blackout!
Oh, and making swags for Christmas. That was an added bonus.
