Oooh, tough choice. It probably have to be pscates. He's usually got something interesting to say and he seems like the kind of guy you could have a few beers with.

<strong>It is my avowed intention that - at some time in the no' too distant future, when I hae sold a few o' my masterpieces, paid the gas, phone and electricity bills and amassed a sonsy pile o' pound coins - I shall fly, ship or train every last one o' ye tae the Isles for a huge love-feast whaur we can a' spend a few glorious weeks one wi' another amid the purple heathery hills and glittering lochs o' this majestic wee land if it's no raining too hard.
There will be venison, boars' heids wi' oranges, whole oxes turning on spits, trout, salmon, neeps, whisky, pheasant, jousting, pipers, clan chiefs, cabers, kilts, castles, claymores, whirligigs, whigmaleeries, monsters, legendary beasts and prophetic visions; until the stanes themsel's start bouncing wi' grooviness.
Just gie it a wee bit time brothers and sisters...
ps. Jamie - nae reason we couldnae meet up sometime in the new year if ye wish. Could maybe get Mr To Ti frae St Andrew's Uni (whose real identity I am sworn tae keep secret, but he's seein' his granny aboot finalising the details o' my title even as we speak) tae come alang too. Plus The Bob frae Edinburgh if he's still aroond. Bonnie Ayr (if it's no' raining), St Andrews or onywhere in between.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Mac, it's just like old times! Do the words 'Dumfries and Galloway' bring any images to mind? I spent all of September and half of October working there...
Mr Meanie! I am delighted tae have the chance tae converse wi' ye again. I trust all is well wi' you.
I am weel acquainted wi' Dumfries & Galloway. In fact I am due tae spend a few days doon near Lockerbie soon, on a friend's farm. I hope ye had a pleasant wee interlude up here. I shall surely reserve a special place at the heid o' the table for ye (between the comely Scottish Maidens and Ochills Ogre) come the Grand Scottish Isles AppleIsider Feast o' Friendship and Unity.
I may have forgotten tae specify in my previous allusion tae this forthcoming (sometime) event, that lang red hair and huge ginger beards will be mandatory.
Jamie! I'm no' on MSN or any o' these contraptions, but we can maybe arrange something by that email thing in the new year.
I've wanted to meet pscates for a while now. Not sure why, he just seems like a cool dude.
I'd like to meet groverat just so I can kick his ass and take his girlfriend.
Mac O'...sorry...SIR Mac O' the Isles, you have an open door invitation to stay with me for as long as you want when you come state side. But you have to promise me that you'll string me some long scottish yarns while you're here. I'm sure I could listen to that accent all day!
Kate? Stop by, I'm sure my wife would have no problem with that
Actually, now that I think about it, I'd like to meet a whole bunch of you. So whatdya say? How about 5ish on Saturday, my place?
I have a newfound respect for the Scots. I now co-produce a show with a fine young Scottish lady and we have a blast! You all are very cool, expecially with words like BOLLOX!
Everyone else:
I can sort of see why no one would like to meet me. I'm not very interesting, really. You'd love the Kansas City area, though. We have...um, the Chiefs -- well, no, they suck now. How about.....well, we're the world headquarters for Applebee's! And, um.....well, I guess all we have is great barbecue!
But seriously, KC is cool. I've heard many times that we're a lot less uptight around here than the rest of the country is. Come on through sometime, if you get the chance.
<img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" /> I think I need to work on my Public Relations skills. Probably everyone thinks I'm some old grumpy guy with a grudge (since I rag on the media, politicians, and others so much). I'm just opinionated though. Not a mean-spirited guy at all. Not even when I play hockey, though I can be if I have to.
Anyway, if I could set it up any way I like, I would fly to San Diego, chiil with pscates...maybe down a six pack while watching the aircraft carriers steam out to sea (or something like that)...then I'd fly to Dallas where Groverat and I could take in a Stars-Capitals game (because the Capitals are about the only team I like less than Dallas)...then...I dunno...maybe fly back to Chi-town and go to Da Bears tail-gater with Scott H. Sounds like a good weekend to me (though they might not agree).
There are others I wouldn't mind meeting, but I won't be so obvious as to say "Kate." <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />
I'd like to take DocGonzo on a tour of my campus during the heigth of hippie protest season. Once there he could either see the idiots for what they are or join them. Either way it would be fun.

I don't get it.
But seriously, I'm flattered. I don't see it.
Anyone ever finds themselves in San Diego and wants to grab lunch and a beer or three, don't hesitate to let me know.
Give you the nickel tour also.

I feel for you soulcrusher. Keep the faith...

I feel the same way. I only know one teen with a Mac... but I did get one of my Windows using friends to admit the Mac OS was much better.
Motoman (knows his stuff)
Eugene (My wife is from Rocha-cha)
applenut ( I think I met him at MWNY though)

i'd meet the winner.
I want to meet Kaboom's beagle pup too!

<strong>Oh I thought you were from Rochester!</strong><hr></blockquote>
I got it from the first post. Then again look where I'm from.
How come no one has mentioned Junk Yard Dawg yet? Doesn't everyone want to meet him?

Oh yeah, I really wanna meet him. Maybe he can get me drunk and try to get fake and useless information out of me too
