Hello

[baphomette]

A friend pointed me in the direction of this forum and I'm enjoying browsing through it.

Hiya.

I think the new rule is you have to buy us all drinks. But, since no one else is here right now, I'll take their drinks.

 

[Purple Stickpin]

Ahem...

Oh, and welcome.

 

[Dennis Loves The Beer]

Ahem...

Oh, i, of course, saved you a drink, Purple.

Who was the friend? We don;t like to be nosy, but we have been called a cult. As a cult (or Country Club), it is nice to know the referring member.

You don;t have to say, but we are curious.

You are not friends with any flea market operators in rural Oregon are you?

Best,

Bill

I've never been to a flea market but I have been to several swap meets.

The difference between the two: flea markets don't have speed freaks selling greasy engine parts and 1989 Chrysler Le Baron manuals off a sleeping bag.

I've also never been to Oregon.

And I'm more than happy to buy a round of drinks! Just, ummmmm... put 'em on my tab and I'll be right back.

Nosiness has been given a bad rap. I like to think of it as a virtue.

My friend belongs to a different cult - one dedicated to an angst-ridden musician - of which I'm also a member.

incidentally, i need a 1989 Chrysler Le Baron manual.

and what are all these little papers in my drink?

Have you been to West Virginia? That's where Batboy's from, y'know.

 

[nervas]

But the question is, are ya a fan of the almighty Buk? Or just passing through?

 

[zenguru]

If you're not a Bukowski fan when you come here, you will be when you leave.:cool:

Hell-o?

You speak of swap meets and it reminds me of F.A. Needlebeck and his backwoods Oregon Flea Market.

Welcome.
