I did not drug you! It was my sheer animal magnetism that caused you to behave that way -- not any chemical aphrodisiac.

In my dialect drug and dragged are interchangeable. I had thought of using "dragged" but thought that those folks who attended the party might think that I was talking about Ozstamps. :D :D

So, drug it is. ;)

OBTW, while I visited with Dovster in Venice, on that occasion he drug another honey around by a most interesting appendage. :eek:

Punki, that was in Verona -- not Venice. And it is a good thing I found out in time that Juliet was only 14-years-old. If not, I might have been arrested for statue-atory rape.

*the above comment does not constitute an admission of guilt on the part of the poster or anyone who MIGHT have been with him that night.

Are you Jacking us around with this comment??

Now why would I do that *smile*

ROFL. :)

I like DOs because I get to meet spiffy people...like Spiff.

Also gives me an excuse to take a trip just to hang out with others instead of traveling for the purposes of constant exploration when I arrive somewhere.

I would like to get to some DO's and meet some of you characters in person. I am hearing impaired, so forgive me for lugging a laptop or some paper and a pen around! :P

Sanosuke!

where is the best place to post this sort of thing? --the "will be at PHL/DFW/whatever from 3:20-5:10 monday" type?

You can always feel free to start a thread in Community Forum - many have done that in the past. Otherwise, on some airline forums such as SQ or UA, there are threads dedicated to posting when one will be in the airline's lounge on a given date & time.

We'd be happy to meet you. When you come, be patient with us, and coach us on the best way to communicate with you.

The experiences. FlyerTalkers have talked/conned/coerced me into doing all sorts of crazy and wonderful things that I would never have done on my own.
