Okay, I'm sort of new here so I don't know who everybody is yet and I'm just starting to explore the site. I have just begun reading different people's threads and sorting by screen-name so I can read about people's experiences. I'm sure I'll be leaving out a few people the first time around but here goes it...

First and foremost, OMG, is there anybody that wouldn't want to meet Lucky. Lucky's six transpacs in five days was one of the first things I ever read on FT and I think I told everybody who would listen to me about this site I found and this person who is living everybody's wildest thoughts. We've all thought about things but Lucky doesn't just think about them, Lucky does them. Wow. #1 - Lucky

#2, #3, and #4 are in random order, Velvet (for the Delta mileage run that never was - you are so lucky, WOW, I read that with an ear to ear grin). Techgirl (because everybody speaks so highly of her and she just seems so cool), and definitely the young consultant Lucky corrupted (xj47 ??), I just LOVED what he was going to do to get 1K, these are my people.

Number 5 is somebody I read about and have talked about but don't remember the screen name for (and just might be Lucky). Somebody did the AA 25K challenge recently and did a Florida - O'Hare and nested two roundtrips to Minneapolis (one of which was delayed so the agents sent him to Rochester Minnesota??? instead). If this is also Lucky then I'll find another fifth and post shortly, I want to meet everybody.

I have what I thought were some pretty crazy stories of things I've done for miles but you guys all put me to shame and I love it.

I've met Punki/Hunk & Oz, I'd give them all a "thumbs up" (all class acts)
