    I'm listed as a "host," which only means that I try to make sure we all know who we are when we get there! LOL My e-addy is open, if you want to get in touch.

    There aren't many Kiwi's to meet up for now.

    I have enjoyed the company of Mackin, and in turn he has been able to meet other evictees that I kick around with.

    Next weekend we will be having an apostofest of sorts, with about 8 of us evil slaves plus partners. Whoo Whee I can't wait to get down on some festing.

    I am in regular contact with Beck_Melbourne, but then I should be, got to keep an eye on my little sis.

    I have made friend from here that I met in the chat room and we've emailed on and off. I miss her comments here, but we get to catch up now and then.

    Hopefully I will recruit a few more members after our gathering next weekend.

    I know there are more but I just can't think of more right now.

    I have loved meeting and talking to everyone I have had the chance to meet in person, and talk to on the phone.

    Can't wait to meet more!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Edited to add scooter and to comment on how I met everyone. Sorry, I forgot to add that part since I was trying to remember everyone I have met or talked to. It was fun trying to remember everyone.

    : Just wondering how many have either met or atleast talk with people from this board on the phone and such. How did you connect? Was it just a post that really spoke to you or what?

    I gave out my phone number and even my address a few times, and I got a few calls, and some mail.

    The calls were basically all the same: "deleted off, you idiot! Click!"

    The mail had to be checked by the FBI before I would open it. Some of those brave FBI guys got blown up. It just breaks my heart.

    It's a wonder I keep my e-mail box open on this forum!

    Farkel?

    You kill me....(LOL).

    I haven't spoken to anyone yet, but I have a feeling I will. I think, after all these years, I am more receptive than I ever was.

    I have e-mailed a couple of people, some have written back. Giving out numbers etc., I know for some, is still considered a risky task.

    Hopefully over time, I may meet, or perhaps speak to some of these XJWs soon.

    All the best, and I'm glad that the 'fellowship' you have now, is way more fun!

    I'm hoping to connect up with some of my local Canucks. We'll see how that goes.

I am coming to Cali this summer...do I need to make a call on the Fark for spiritual uplifting mofo??

    Sincerely,

    Did you know that I bought my own copy of the Tao De Ching at that VERY bookstore on Fourth Plain there in Vancouver? Fact!

    Small world, eh? Thurston goes north off Fourth Plain to the ONLY major major mall in that town. We called it the "Van Mall."

    It's a small world filled with big people, my friend Craig and your new bride!

    Hey Valis, so your mother and you carried the piano from house to house in field service. Now, that is a nice touch. Her, playing the piano while you presented the magazines. I bet your magazines sales were the best in your hall..... just a funnen you pal.
