They really are, Larry. This was a great experience for me because I finally saw there are real, live people behind the comments. Not that I didn't know that on SOME level, but this just really hit it home for me. I hope there will be another convention someday because I would LOVE to attend...  |

I think it would be a good idea if the USMers had a little tab up there perhaps by the tag info tab which includes the state they live in..That way we could perhaps make plans to at least meet the ones who lives in our own state and the other states we visit. I live in OH, and I visit WV, Va, and Pa a couple of times each year. Anyway..I am madder than an ole wet hen at Ali..She could have made some serious detours and came by and picked me up. :)  |

Killians!! People after my own heart, I'll have one later today in your honor. When Ali said she was going to Minot to meet KK and Six Gun, I remembered the time or two I had been through there myself. Three North Dakotans drinking beer- It sounds like this: "Ya it's good, darn tootin', you betcha, ya darn good, ya you know it, ya?, ya!, you bet!, Ya!!.  |

I was too happy and distracted to meet the man I knew I would marry though, and felt rude about it! Oh my!  |
