Hi - I'm Annie. I'm from Montana, and I brought a jello mold.

I'm wearing my Raggedy Ann costume because I never get an opportunity to wear it and I thought you folks might appreciate it.

I am also about to eat all of muppet's hummus.

(I believe the food dish is hummus--though what "hummus" is I don't know. "Humus" is soil. [Razz] )

I'm Megan, and I'm originally from Atlanta, but I'm in Bloomington, IN, getting my Ph.D. at IU. Having announced that, I am now obligated to at [Taunt] Hobbes.

(But I really don't care...sports aren't my bag, and Purdue doesn't have a music school. [Big Grin] )

ETA: well, it has a music department, but not really a music school, per se. [Dont Know]

Megan: you'll find there's a handful of bloomingtonians on the board who would love a real life get together. I am currently not one of them (I'm in Saint Louis right now), but I return to Bloomington upon occasion, so I may squeeze into such a shindig myself.

Kama gets a prize, just cause she inspired this thread. (Here's your prize, Kama. It's a handy-dandy teleportation ring to use whenever someone is holding a get-together that is too far away.)

However, to win the "coming from farthest away" prize, you have to prove that you are coming from the farthest away.

Hobbes: What screenshot are you talking about??

That's a good question. Largely it's a joke 'cause it begs the question, "farthest away from where, exactly?" I mean, is Poland really any farther away from Hatrack than, say, Utah or Baltimore?

Hi. I'm Patsy, the faithful steed of King Arthur. I live in medieval England and have these coconuts, which were brought by an African swallow from a tropical island somewhere out in the south Pacific.

Do I win the prize for furthest away? I had to come through *time* to get here. My coconuts are almost worn out.
