Are you familiar with the phrase: Shang-hai'd? Cuz that's how I got here. Some seemingly nice people got me drunk, and when I woke up I was here surrounded by these crazy wonderful people. First time was at Camden this summer, where I met Blackjack and his wife, Flipflopgirl, nycport, and my brother by another mother moog. Then it was at a party here in CT where I met Zuke, Fu and Tommy Bahama. And just a week and a half ago, it was cincy, where I met NEIB, Txxagirl, Flock, CitCat, MarinGrita, R-squared (my arch-nemesis. :evil: :evil: :wink: ) and I know many others, but this time, when I say drunk, what I really mean is DRUNK, so it's possible that more people met me than I met.

Why, we met online, of course! :P

I finally met my first two BNers, Kitty and Key Lime Lee, at Hooters in CT, just after I came back from the Middle East. From there on, it was exponential.... Jones Beach 2002, Great Woods, Camden, Tampa, Key West, and on and on and on.....

I met Zero, IUP and Gumby at Chicago in 2002. (One of them actually remembers.) Since then I've met BNers at concerts, phlockings and PHC meetings in 4 different time zones.

I recently married a BNer and there were more BNers at the wedding than blood relatives. :wink:

Yep, we're great friends! :D

Thats right-- I did meet you first in Chicago. Knows I remember--Z picked you up at MDW that one morning, and IUP and MichI came and found us all at Sleepy Bear that one night before it monsooned.
