Re: Meetups?
Oh, Mana, why do looks have to stop people being friendly? A friend shouldn't care. Anyway, as a matter of fact I've already seen your picture.

It's because I can't ever get anywhere. I have no license and I'd be too embarrassed to ask to be taken out anywhere like a Chrons gathering around....and did I mention I live in a place with no local public transportation? It's twelve miles to a town of DECENT size, so walking's out, as well.

I'd use an airship if they existed, but a hot air balloon's much too small and scary.

Maybe I could get myself a pogo stick....

Hehe. Of all the forums I've BEEN on-and quite a few describes them-and I've never met anyone, either.


Currently this is the only one I visit, seeing as how it's the only one who'll put up with me.

You don't want one of those, Mana. Try one of these: Levitating Hover Scooter by Hammacher Schlemmer - Gadget Review
