Hmm, if you're going to Canada, I'd suggest the capitol, (which is Ottawa). This is of course, for entirely non-personal reasons.

Oh ho! Nice try, trying to lead us all off track, but everyone knows the capital of Canada is Toronto!

It's wonderful living in a world of high speed information, when everybody knows all sorts of things.

Probably wouldn't be an awful idea to consider more regional forum meets. Taking into account not everyone can travel to faraway capitals like Toronto, maybe have several or a few different such places and times to accomodate more people. Perhaps.

If that were true ms. v, Celine Dion wouldn't exist either, but, unfortunately, we all know she does.

Hmm that could work too I guess, regional forum meets.

But we could also set a time and day internationally and set up webcams or something in each region so that everyone can see everyone!
Just another idea.

My fav writers, semtecks, gohn, eggo and Chris Miller--Hawke, to see if she's as sweet in real life--I have visions of dragging Silverwriter, Gigi, Tsu, Lorlie, Nae, Foxee and Vodka out to show them what real partying is like. That might take getting Bika, J.R., Gary Wagner and Dannyboy (to name a few) drunk for a swim out in a rock quarry to settle an arguement about shinkage. An on the spot poetry write and read, losing an article of clothing or divulging a truth the consequence of screwing it up. And that would be just the warm up.

So, if I haven't scared anyone yet, any takers?
we've only bumped once or twice, but you dont want to meet me? hahahaha I wonder how many people on the forum actually know me, I'm expanding because I usually just sit in lyrics. Its time to spread out.

I'm down

We should pick a date that everyone gets together in their respective area and we raise a toast at the same time like the Guinness toast. I'm up for anytime in January in NYC/NJ area! Z 02
