Johnny Blaze, Sis2Chris2, Wombat, Wiz, Ice Maiden, Mopther Nature and
all the others i forget?
Hang on, some of them are still around and will be here soon (once the
sun comes up or goes down, depending).
They *live* for these moments.
hey there Dusty! :) Johnny Blaze has been MIA for a few years, Wombat
I think is hibernating, Wiz I haven't seen around for years and years,
but Mother Nature is here a lot lately and I see Ice drop in
occasionally.
So how's your world?

THANK YOU, VIRTUAL SHADOW, YOU JUST NAILED ANOTHER ONE!
Okay......Where have you been hiding yourself at?
Nice to hear from you again. Drop me a line if you feel an urge. <g>
Don't mind Hoots. He's just jealous. <g>
Did you know what Dusty does for a living?
Some run in and out at times but some have never been heard of again.
They just disappeared.....spooky huh?
I know the feeling.........I did.
I might just write you a mail and catch up. Life very busy at the
moment.
Looks like i got a another fool trying to play with me if i read the
above correct,,,,,,,,,no he doesn't know what i do.
Glad to see you MN!
Ma has been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Now you're gonna see some *real* penpalling. Not the mindless junk that
goes on here now, a mere shadow of the past, but the real thing.
I can't wait. This should be magical.
Gather around all you young penpals and watch as the *real* penpals show
us how it's done.
I'm here to learn.
Show us, Ma.
Well, this was great!
I apologize, Ma, you were right.
That's how penpalling *should* be done.
I am chastised, for sure.
Hoots, you're feisty arent you? :)
Virtual Shadow knows all, Limey.
Well, I did know; but I think those notes went out in the rubbish.
When you get a chance let me know what happened to you. It think it's
the eighth wonder of the world trying to figure out what happens to
penpals when they disappear. <g>
You'll enjoy the colonel. <g>
Now you're just being pissy....
Are you done yet?
Really? And how would you know this?
Sometimes - when I'm not being romantic to Rachel that is...
No, Ma, I mean it. You periodically whine and cry over the lost past
here and how great it was and where did they go and the meanies made
them leave, etc. "They were the good penpals and you're all second-rate
ones."
Show me.
It depends.
And you? What r u?

All us old regs like to reminisce sometimes about some of the characters
who've been here and some of the fun times we had. It's just a bit of
nostalgia. Don't take it personally, Sweetie.
Too bad you'd have been a bit too young when I was in college, and driving a
Karmann Ghia...and I'm a meter and 84 tall. (That would have been 35 years
ago, give or take the odd year.) ;-)

Hi Patrick. I've heard plenty of stories about what went on in VW Kombi vans
from people who were teenagers in the 60s (including my Dad), especially if
the van was hand-painted in lots of different colours with peace signs and
crazy daisies. :-)
I didn't know that when you reminisce about the past, you are actually
whining and crying.
Where have I said that that you are a second rate penpal?
They're piling in the back seat
They're generating steam heat
Pulsating to the back beat
The Penpal Bop.
Uh-huh.
Lot of fiber is what I heard, but I'm just a crappy new Penpal so what
the hell do I know?
The Karmann Ghia was a flattened version of the Beetle, and mind had the
automatic stick-shift...and my paint job was a pale yellow (something like
"font color=#CCCC99" in HTML coding) Believe it or not, one summer four of
my running buddies - two male, two female - were on my team in a summer
bowling league, and I could get all four of them into the Ghia, albeit with
some creative contortion that left me enough room to be able to drive safely.
(Of course, we were all 19 or 20 at the time. Case closed. ;-)

We went parking the other night
Out on Penpal Road
Me and my Hootsie were just gettin' right
All systems on overload
Steamy windows
Ooh, that man is such a treat
Steamy windows
Coming from the body heat
LABOTOMY!
LABOTOMY!
Eat your Shredded Wheat, boy.
You're a cranky penpal.
Time flies when you're having fun
I read somebody's post
But, if all I've been is fun
Then, baby, let me go; don't wanna be in your way
And I don't wanna be your second choice
Don't wanna be just your friend
You keep telling me that you're not in love
You wanna throw it all away
But I can't stay away from you
I don't wanna let you go
And, though you're killfiling me--that's true
There's just some things I can't control/alt/del
Your love is slipping through my hands
And, though I've heard it all before
I know you're telling me the truth
I know it's just no use
But I can't stay away from you
gabba gabba hey!
Yeah, in the old daze when the REAL penpals were here is was all light
and fun and there was free frickin entertainment for everyone 24 hours a
day.
Now they want you to actually be part of it and help.
What a world.
Pen, pen, Penpal Beach
Pen, pen, Penpal Beach
Pen, pen, Penpal Beach
We can hitch a ride
To Penpal Beach
You need a nap grampa.....

I'm waiting for your posts, dear, I'm looking for your spark
Any message from you and I light up in the dark
I see your words before me, so gentle and so sweet
How deeply you touch me and make me feel complete
Only, only wanting contact
I'm only, only wanting contact
I'm only, only wanting contact with you
The first time ever I saw your posts
I thought the soc rose in your i's
And the google and socks were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty newsgroup, my love,
To the dark and the empty newsgroup.
The first time ever I dreamed I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command.com, my love
That was there at my command.com
And the first time ever I replied all with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
It would last till the end of time my love
The first time ever I saw your posts, your posts,
your posts, your posts
