If you could meet one person from AI...

*cough* Kate *cough*

I think I speak for all males present.

Honestly the whole point of this post was to see how many people would pick kate ;)

As soon as I saw this topic, I thought, "Uh oh, another Kate love-fest!"

I'm sure he's still around. :p

Nobody wants to meet an angry Canadian.

Me and grover could slap high fives.

Miss Tron, oh wait, she wasn't a real person... MadTool... darn! That won't work either...

Abraham.

Oh wait! He wasn't from Ai, he just went there when he was told to. I'd still like to meet him.

Oh and I'd like to meet (Sir) Mac O' The Isles because he's a fellow Scot and he only lives up the road a bit.

I know that's more than one but who cares.

J :cool:

applenut :D

then kate..

It is my avowed intention that - at some time in the no' too distant future, when I hae sold a few o' my masterpieces, paid the gas, phone and electricity bills and amassed a sonsy pile o' pound coins - I shall fly, ship or train every last one o' ye tae the Isles for a huge love-feast whaur we can a' spend a few glorious weeks one wi' another amid the purple heathery hills and glittering lochs o' this majestic wee land if it's no raining too hard.

There will be venison, boars' heids wi' oranges, whole oxes turning on spits, trout, salmon, neeps, whisky, pheasant, jousting, pipers, clan chiefs, cabers, kilts, castles, claymores, whirligigs, whigmaleeries, monsters, legendary beasts and prophetic visions; until the stanes themsel's start bouncing wi' grooviness.

Just gie it a wee bit time brothers and sisters...

ps. Jamie - nae reason we couldnae meet up sometime in the new year if ye wish. Could maybe get Mr To Ti frae St Andrew's Uni (whose real identity I am sworn tae keep secret, but he's seein' his granny aboot finalising the details o' my title even as we speak) tae come alang too. Plus The Bob frae Edinburgh if he's still aroond. Bonnie Ayr (if it's no' raining), St Andrews or onywhere in between.

I'd like to meet Belle because her posts are always interesting to read - seems she would be someone who was fun to talk to.

I would like to meet Samantha just because I have always had a thing for that name and I like keeping an eye out for the new people on the boards.

As far as Kate goes, very pretty girl, not my type though. <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />

Yeah, but I don't think she was real at all.

And oh yeah, I'd like to add kaboom to my list because I want to see his Beagle puppy. Plus, he seems like a nice, cool guy.

- T.I.

Met Gillian, the Webmistress from the UK Macworld forum, the other day :D

I too remember Christine, MacAddict.

Nobody wants to meet me? Darn.

As for me, I guess Kate world be a nice person to meet.

I guess people avoid Newton users like the plague. :(

I've already met applenut. Front of the line at MWNY 2001. :D

No free mouse, though. :(

And talking about Christine, who remembers mac_girl (sp.?)?

- T.I.

P.S. I bet Leonis does :D

Mac, it's just like old times! Do the words 'Dumfries and Galloway' bring any images to mind? I spent all of September and half of October working there...

That's now three or four people who have chosen me.

I don't get it.

:confused:

But seriously, I'm flattered. I don't see it.

:D

I would like to meet any of you, personally I do not know any other teenager with a Mac, so...

My puppy is flattered that she has so many fans :D

I've wanted to meet pscates for a while now. Not sure why, he just seems like a cool dude.

I'd like to meet groverat just so I can kick his ass and take his girlfriend.

Mac O'...sorry...SIR Mac O' the Isles, you have an open door invitation to stay with me for as long as you want when you come state side. But you have to promise me that you'll string me some long scottish yarns while you're here. I'm sure I could listen to that accent all day!

Kate? Stop by, I'm sure my wife would have no problem with that ;)

Actually, now that I think about it, I'd like to meet a whole bunch of you. So whatdya say? How about 5ish on Saturday, my place?

THT (intellectually stimulating)
Motoman (knows his stuff)
Eugene (My wife is from Rocha-cha)
applenut ( I think I met him at MWNY though)

SIR Mac O':
I have a newfound respect for the Scots. I now co-produce a show with a fine young Scottish lady and we have a blast! You all are very cool, expecially with words like BOLLOX!

Everyone else:
I can sort of see why no one would like to meet me. I'm not very interesting, really. You'd love the Kansas City area, though. We have...um, the Chiefs -- well, no, they suck now. How about....well, we're the world headquarters for Applebee's! And, um....well, I guess all we have is great barbecue!

But seriously, KC is cool. I've heard many times that we're a lot less uptight around here than the rest of the country is. Come on through sometime, if you get the chance. ;)

What's Rocha-cha?

I want to meet Kaboom's beagle pup too!

<img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" /> I think I need to work on my Public Relations skills. Probably everyone thinks I'm some old grumpy guy with a grudge (since I rag on the media, politicians, and others so much). I'm just opinionated though. Not a mean-spirited guy at all. Not even when I play hockey, though I can be if I have to. :D

Anyway, if I could set it up any way I like, I would fly to San Diego, chiil with pscates...maybe down a six pack while watching the aircraft carriers steam out to sea (or something like that)...then I'd fly to Dallas where Groverat and I could take in a Stars-Capitals game (because the Capitals are about the only team I like less than Dallas)...then...I dunno...maybe fly back to Chi-town and go to Da Bears tail-gater with Scott H. Sounds like a good weekend to me (though they might not agree). :)

There are others I wouldn't mind meeting, but I won't be so obvious as to say "Kate." <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />

I got it from the first post. Then again look where I'm from.

How come no one has mentioned Junk Yard Dawg yet? Doesn't everyone want to meet him?

Oh yeah, I really wanna meet him. Maybe he can get me drunk and try to get fake and useless information out of me too :rolleyes:

Roger_Ramjet (cool name, I loved that cartoon, good head on his shoulders too)

Scott H. (Just Cause)

AppleProphet (Good guy, fun to talk to.)

Undotwa (With all the time I spend talking an helping hi out, it only seems fair that I meet him)

That's 4, in no particular order.

You know...after thinking about it...I'm not sure I'd want to meet me either. For one thing, I don't present myself as a barrel-o-monkies kind of guy, and for another I've never been at the head of the line when it comes to popularity contests.

I have to say though I was waiting for the merciless jab from Groverat after my Dallas Stars comment. :D

Yet, the tribe has (not) spoken...I am, therefore...navel lint.

[ 11-30-2001: Message edited by: Moogs ]</p>

If I could only meet one person it would probably be Mark.

If I were to meet a group it would consist of Groverat, Anders, Moogs, PScates, Scott H, DocGonzo, Artman (someone to hang with once everyone started bitching about politics), Amorph and Eugene - cause he gets some cool toys. Oh, and MacAddict.

Plus a couple dozen others I didn't mention.

No girls from AI allowed. We'd meet new girls. :)

Double post... UBB sucks.

[ 12-09-2001: Message edited by: tonton ]</p>

Back atcha, NoahJ. ;)

But I think it's cool as can be and I'm genuinely flattered.

[quote]Originally posted by Moogs :
<strong>Whoa, whoa! I didn't know you were a flaming dork.</strong><hr></blockquote>

Well, I certainly have my moments.

:D

So many cool people... Groverat and Scates would both be very interesting people to meet. BillGates would be an experience as well. Mark, of course, always seems like a fantastic guy. I'ld say though, that the number one guy I'ld like to meet would be EriMac.

Aw Solishu makes me feel all tingly. Too bad he has disappeared. :(

Nowadays, for obvious reasons, I could picture myself having a beer in a cafe somewhere in Prague with Harald and Bunge. Go figure. I'd also take Scott up on his invitation to Chicago if I had a chance. Just keep the topic on beer and away from politics!

Watch what you wish for Tonton...

I reckon Harald would "appropriate" your beer in the name of social equality

Dude, I'm a voracious capitalist. I know how you could get that impression thought ...

I'd like to play a volleyball game with Giant, Keyboard, and Bunge on my side and Trumptman, SDW, Scott, and Groverat on the other. BR would referee, as he would refuse to take sides, but he'd side emotionally with the other team. Applenut and Eugene would be the designated spectators, offering us insightful criticism on our technique and strategy.

BR to referee?? :no: By my reading, BR is not much into applying rules...

I think that is what Shawn was sort of hoping for. No rules...;)

I'd play volleyball just so I could see Shawn in a bikini top.:lol:

We really don't need to hear about your odd sexual fantasies. Keep that on porn bulletin boards, mkay?

You also might not want to use tabbed browsing if you keep getting confused about which page is which.

If I could me someone from AI it would be the girl from kate's picture on the community site.

Hassan i Sabbah. Who is back from Merica to Yoorp.

Who said anything about sex? I just assumed we would be skins and they would be shirts.

You mean Shawn didn't tell you about his "special" preferences when dressing?:devil:

A moderator emeritus named Mark said at the start of this thread that he'd like to meet Bill Gates (he had a picture of Bill Gates . . . at least I think it is). Did Bill ever post to these boards? How could you be sure it was really him?

If true, are they archived somewhere? I am writing a paper about him and would like to access them for more unique references.
