I don't need to meet Andy. I'm not interested in rubbing elbows with celebrity. I'm not interested in gaining any notoriety. The reasons I hang around here are;

- You guys are cool.

- Since I was a kid, I've always had to know the trick. I used to tape David Coperfield specials and play them back in slow motion.

- I'm obsessed with antisipating punchlines.

- I'm an active partisipant in perception manipulation. An AK faked death would be the greatest example since the freakin' trojan horse.

- I'm wacko

- There's nothing on TV

- After the initial bait, I can't seem to give up on the idea. It's like, I've waited THIS long, if I give up now, it'll be solved tomorrow and I'll miss the big reveal.

what about you wackos?

For me

-Cause you guys are cool.

- I'm also wacko.

-There is almost nothing on TV anymore.

-I to am still facinated by the idea and find it hard to let go.

-I actually enjoy many of the side bars as well.

Mine:

- you guys are cool

- this is better than TV

- the rest of the world is wacko

- I just can't let it go

just 'cause.

(and also 'cause you guys are cool AND wacko)

Cuz you guys are fun
I've always enjoyed a good mystery
and I am an obsessive/compulsive whacko

Ive been readin along for quite some time now but I never did done get up the grits to say somethin to yall.

I do rightly think ya'll are a buncha them macaroons with the cokeenut inside.

But here I am still a reading and a laughing and sometimes a laughing so hard that old Roger my dear companyun bloodhound looks up at me with his sad ol eyes as if to say I really dun lost it this time.

So be it. Yup.

Me too. Same as all of the above for me.

Here's a link to a somewhat interesting, slightly related story for what it's worth:

Because I like the twinkle that I saw in Andy's eyes.

And you guys are cool and all.

And I used to have a part time job (I moved back to the east coast in 03 too late in the year to teach) before I began teaching again with a lot of free time.

Now I'm not quite so free, but I'm still here. :)

Well, what took ya so long?
