If we could all meet, get together and hang out at a pub drinking beer, rye, tea, coffee...whatever we damn well feel like. Getting to meet everyone on this site in person would be very interesting. Imagine all the stuff we could talk about in person.

    Who's going to pay for all the plane tickets though??? Seriously ...just think of all the brilliant minds there would be in one pub?...and think of the conversations we could have...the friendships that could spawn.

    could you be as personal afterwards as you are now ?

    hard to imagine...
    Write. Wind each new thought upon the stream;
    and in its contradiction of response,
    Or seeming stagnance, see that rippled gleam
    That might suggest true movement. If you sense
    a hidden wave in what seems blanket still,
    Write more, wind each desire, and you'll see
    The willows nod and rustle, and you will
    hear the rushing babble of the free
    gush of water, brimming, charged with light
    That is your reader's understanding heart.

    ... interacting with people without being attacked by reality is quite a freedom for me.

    I don´t know, maybe it´s just my way of thinking.

    a simple suggestion becoming other person´t anticipation
    ignites people´s wanting things, desiring something that
    is distant only for the lenght of a contemplation, when catching
    a speck on the wall...

    my theory of the first kiss, but present in any action
    happened for the first time.

    what do we do or feel, when the moment is over?

    Ok I'm game. Seriously could this really happen? I know what person on here I could meet for real, right emperical?
    He only lives up the road a piece.
    Oh what fun we could all have huh? That would be the best party I ever went to for sure. Just hope I remember it the next day haha.

    I'm down...who's near Chicago? I'm in Evanston. I know many a pub that would be absolutely perfect
    If there was a chair in which I could comprehend, I would stand always and embrace the path

    No it's not!

    I would crawl through hundreds of miles of crushed glass just to say hey to you! :D

    But then again it wouldn't be a pretty sight. Scratch that thought.

    Why don't I just drive and then buy you lunch.

    Back to the yard work.

    later
  • PJfaninmainePJfaninmaine Posts: 216
    Crushed Glass? wow thats dedication, but let me know ahead of time so I have enough band aids.
    Yes I think driving would be the better plan.
    Have fun doing yard work.
    Later Sweetcheeks.
