Btw, I don't know what the big deal is. It's just me. You've met me - just an orderinary chap doing his thing. I'm not some big wig financier/startup angel investor hot shot d0uchebag or whatever. Besides, I may end up hating everyone and just leave the DO early

Ordinary and chap cannot be in the same sentence with someone who flies like you

And...OR you might just be the one to close out the party

I totally agree. I do not at all understand the fuss made about meeting one character or another. I haven't yet met you, and although I look forward to it because then I get to put a face to a [prolific poster] name, there are lots of other new faces I'll get to do that with too. It always intrigues me to find out how people got to be FT'ers and live the lives they do. And yes, you may well find me utterly boring or hate worthy and that's just fine too!

I have to say, I am also in on the "big surprise" and am quite interested to see if it has the "shock-and-awe-factor" or if it's more "huh, well that's interesting ... moving on". LOL

Hahaha. I figured you were in on it too I'm not flying alone to YYC either And I flew with that person yesterday to to YUL!

It's so great that so many people have now connected in real life! I have learned though that being passed out doesn't help

Bah I'm horrible at this but i really got to get around to getting nametags from Staples or whatever. Any volunteers?

Or maybe i'll just bring a permanent marker and ask people write their first name and FT handles on their forehead. Too bad i'm in a customer facing job... or that'd be HILARIOUS.

Or maybe I might just wear a shirt with penguins on it.

Oh boy. Many ideas now.
