I just got off of the phone with California Peggy...

[TK421]

What a sweet,SWEET lady she is!!!!!!! We talked for about 45 minutes, and covered much territory...

This was the very first time I have actually talked to another DU'er...and it was almost surreal...like I never in my life expected to actually talk to someone here.

Someone want my phone number? I don't care!!! I'll PM you my phone number...I would LOVE to talk to you guys!!!! And I'll place the call..I don't care! That was really fun! And it was great to place a voice with what I see on the screen here...I've seen pictures, of course! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

1. With the sick, I was told I sound like Napoleon Dynamite today.

You really DON'T want to talk to me.

7. I never saw Napoleon Dynamite, so I don't know what you mean by that

but I don't care about that, anyways...this was an awesome experience.

Think about it....would still like to hear actual DU'ers, no matter what! :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. My dear TK421!

It was really fun talking to you too!

You are also a sweetheart!

And, wow! Look at all those bouncy frogs!

:toast:

[TK421]

8. Hello! This is weird talking to you this way all of a sudden!

We just got off of the phone about a half-hour ago? :pals: I'll send you that link, by the way...in a few minutes.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. It feels completely normal to me!

But I'm used to it.......

I'll look for the link in a bit...no hurry at all!

Yeah, we got off the phone about half an hour ago...I needed to start dinner!

:pals:

20. I'm jealous! California Peggy, I was thinking about you last night

and thought I'd inquire whether it would be possible to talk with you by telephone! Recent events have been tough for me, and you just seem so approachable. And I just like you, my dear...

That does it! I'm sending you my telephone number and if you want to talk, just let me know. We have free all day calling here with Comcast. You can dial -- or I can dial, whatever.

Hey, are you the unofficial den mother of this place? Wait, I'm sure I'm older than you.

Just let me know if this is OK (or not). I won't take a personally.

Making peace a priority,

Radio Lady in Oregon

23. I'm jealous! California Peggy, I was thinking about you last night!

About 10 PM, I thought I'd inquire whether it would be possible to talk with you by telephone! Recent events have been tough for me, and you just seem so approachable. I have no sisters and my only woman first cousin lives in New Jersey and doesn't use the Internet. And I just like you, my dear...

[lost-in-nj]

3. OH does she sound like she looks????

so sweet, yet so smart??

lucky you

lost

[TK421]

12. YES...she sure does, and she certainly is, Lost!

She is a super-nice person! We talked about many things, and I had a great time!

Which is one of the reasons I posted this thread...I would really like to talk to actual DU'ers sometime...Peggy actually called ME first ( I was about to call her )...ha,ha, at first I thought it was a bill collector, to be honest ( sorry Peggy! ) but at that moment, I forgot I e-mailed her my phone number. That was maybe about an hour later than that!
:D

[lost-in-nj]

4. Say the word!!!

I am 2 1/2 hours away from AC....


we could do a mini meet!!!!



lost
i love to talk to du'ers

I have one special one that I talk to every night....

[Rabrrrrrr]

5. I'm glad to hear your transmitter is fixed!

:rofl:

Oh, man, I kill myself.

I'm also glad you had a great conversation! I bet CP is a hoot to talk to!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. I am!

If you ever want to be talked to, just let me know!

I have a large circle of DU friends, and I'd be honored to add you to it...:silly:

:hug:

[TOhioLiberal]

21. You can add me to it...

...any time, my dear Peggy...

[TK421]

14. She was really cool, Rabrrrrrr...she hates children just like you and I

only, she's not for mandatory castration or the cutting-off of the heads of screaming children at restaurants...but that's OK....


She CAN be taught

[TK421]

16. Ha! Read my other post....

[GOPisEvil]

9. Next thing you know you'll be at her house, eating her food, drinking her wine!

Run, RUN!!!!!!!!

Just kidding. Peggy is a most excellent host. :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. Oh yeah!

It was so much fun having you here!

You and huskerlaw were excellent guests!

:hug:

[TK421]

15. SSSHHHHH!!!! Dammit, don't blow my cover, dude!

( hushed tones ) everyone knows about her awesome wine collection...ALL MINE...MY PRECIOUS!!!!

[GOPisEvil]

18. Watch that husband of hers, too.

He's actually hilarious, but he drops "joke grenades". By the time you figure out how funny his remark was, it's too late.

[TK421]

19. Oh yeah...believe me, I know the type! That's pretty much my entire family

We're like that, too! Thanks for the warning, though!

[Aristus]

10. You lucky guy, I'm happy for you!

B-)

[TK421]

17. It was a real pleasure, I tell you...

You can never figure out how someone would sound on the other end of the line, but Peggy is pretty much how I imagined her to be...very sweet and understanding. Also, she has one HELL of a sense of humor, and that will always go miles with me! :thumbsup:

[Ellen Forradalom]

22. Careful....

You might wind up on the phone with Rabrrrrr.

[TK421]

27. You ever seen the movie called "Bells"?

A.K.A "Murder by Phone" and here is the IMDB link for info on this classic movie ( I say classic, and that is my opinion ) and Rabrrrrrr would definitely be on the other end....but instead of just dying, I would probably die laughing!!:

26. i've talked to a few DU'ers in person when we bumped into each other at protests and such

i also have a now really really good friend who use to post on DU quite a bit(she posts on my forum still). it's always great to meet new friends that you have so much in common with! skype is another great way to talk with people on the net(and not have to give out your phone number ;) )

[The Straight Story]
