Some observations:

**The most enjoyable part of Meets, for me at least, has always been the rampant sex -- and if you've never had sex on a rampant you don't know what you are missing.

**Despite the repeated calls for chocolate in this thread, there is absolutely no reason why a Swiss F/Ter should feel obligated to bring them. Rolexs, or even fully loaded numbered bank accounts, are equally acceptable.

**Studies show that when there are no moderators in the vicinity, 27.3% of the time is spent cursing them. When there are moderators present, this increases to 43.8%. As F/T meets are international events, you will have a unique opportunity to increase your vocabulary by learning obscenities in various languages.

**If the Meet is one of the infamous Delta Forum sponsored events, you will get a free bottle of Cholula Hot Sauce. You will also get a free Cholula Hot Sauce t-shirt and a free Cholula Hot Sauce electric button which flashes on and off. Cholula, himself, rarely flashes (when sober).

**Most Meets are blasts. It is hoped, however, that this particular term will not be applied to the upcoming Tel Aviv Meet.

**Meets have proven hazardous to existing F/T relationships. All too often when people who detest each other on the forum meet in person they form friendships which completely destroy the carefully created animosity.

**Most FlyerTalkers are intelligent, articulate, people with whom you will have an extremely enjoyable time. On the other hand, there is always the possibility that I will show up.
