Talking Nonsense, nothing scary about it.

I've been blessed to have met several on-line friends over the years; a few years ago a bunch of us traveled to Orlando for the Ligonier conference, and had a marvelous time together.

It'll be alright. Really. We don't

Real World meets Virtual World?? Are you sure your meeting did not disrupt the space time continum?? Maybe that's why Barak and Hilary are doing so well in the polls!!

We disrupted the space-time continuum, and naturally it took a few years for the full effect to appear.

It's all so obvious!

Maybe if several of us meet in August that'll somehow knock the space-time continuum back into place?

Especially if we eat lots of chocolate. You know, it's a scientific fact that chocolate has a stabilizing effect on the space-time continuum.

...and I'll stabilize it mine.

And my way involves chocolate-covered group meetings.

[muttering] Logic, the man wants. Sheesh!

Somebody recently donated a book to my church library titled "Okay, Hand-Over the Chocolate, and Nobody Gets Hurt!" (or something like that).

I did not put it in the library!

Is Grace Community that massive Church near Hulen?
Dare I hope we PB'ers in the Fort Worth area can try to get together with you, however briefly? Even a cup of coffee would do.
Sure, we can set up a Fort Worth PB gathering. Might be Dallas/FW though because I've already promised Chris I'd see him.

Oh well, sure. Wherever!

Okay, barring McKinney or Frisco or some other outlandish area that'd take me forever to get to, and in hideous traffic, too.

I agree! I would do a DFW thing but I agree with Anne, no Frisco, or Forney, or anything like that! Forney has like one eating place, a Dairy Queen....and there is a sign that says The Forney Country Club! Right!

First Rich'll have to nail down his arrival time, and I daresay he's a goodish way away from that. Still, he'll know far enough out for us to be able to make plans.

Plans are good. ;^)

Chris probably has the most difficulty getting around so I'm going to accomodate him as much as possible. It might end up being two meetings as I'll be in Fort Worth for about 10 days in the middle of August.

Two meetings would be delightful, but certainly we want one to gather as many together as possible. I'm sure wherever Chris is will do splendidly.

If it's at a Chili's, I daresay Jessica can help us either get comp'd or greatly reduced, given sufficient notice.

Well, at her own store Jess has more clout, of course. It might be different when we're at a "foreign" Chili's.

Who knows what the LORD has planned, though? He might be planning to give her her own store for real (as general manager!), or move her to another one.

Never know what our sovereign LORD has up His anthropomorphic sleeve.

Once we get the date set and get closer to it, we'll know better where to have our shindig.
