An idea

After reading the Are you a..thread which actually has turned into a better discussion of diversity and tollerance than was probably intended I started thinking. Has Aximsite ever had meetups? Slashdot and Fark (two of my favorite hangouts) have them all the time. Would there be any interest in starting something like that. I know that both of the others I mentioned do them by region or city, it would take a bit of planning and coordination but could be fun. There are usually some rather strict rules about public meeting places, times, etc...but they add a level of safety and provide an opportunity to back out at the last minute if you encounter a group of freaks :) Anyway...what do you think?

What a lovely looking cow!

She reminds me of my ex, ex wife - no that’s rude, Carole had bigger ears!

Cheers

P.S. Count me in on the rendezvous thing – I propose Hotel Sheraton Warsaw, 7PM, 23rd December for the Poland contingent!

Go Home and cry!

"Hey Pal, how are you?"
"Hey PAL don't mess with me!"

See the difference? If not then you have a problem.

Guys, without wishing to tread on anybody’s toes, could I suggest that we call a truce. :love:

I find your dialogue compulsive reading, but I really need to go to sleep soon.

Hendrixus, you have convinced me that there truly are Gods – “holy cow” – and MrKlaatu is showing what a fine upstanding citizen he is by offering you his friendship. :rolling:

Perhaps you will resume your friendly banter next weekend, season of good will and all that.

Cheers

HardOnReset :approve:

P.S. MK can I be your ‘pal’ too?

Well, back to Grapeapes idea...

I think that could be quite fun. Though, with as far apart as many of us are it could be difficult to find a mutualy agreeable location. Several of those who would most likely attend have quite a distance between us (Florida, California, Canada, UK).
