Who do you Want to meet?

“Lipstick, I resent your implication that TTers are neither geniuses nor Jesus.

How do you know?!

;o)”

“You're right AmyG. Okay geniuses, show yourself, and you too Jesus.”

“

Sorry, did you say something amyg & lipstick hiker?”

“I'd be honored to hike with any and all of you. I've often wondered also (like on the A.T.) if any of the people I pass are TTers.

What did ever happen to the TT shirts? I'm still hoping for one of those.

I would like to hike with Jessica Simpson, Anna Kournikova, Reinhold Messner, hmm, I could prolly come up with a pretty long list if I thought about it for a while.”

“Buddar, very funny, but I think Einstein is a little too out of it now to go hiking, lol.

I'd like to sit with Renior for an afternoon and watch him paint. I know, he is also quite out of it these days.”

“A subtle solution to the indentify a TT'er. Ask the people you meet on the trail. Granted, a cap or shirt of some common design or with a common logo would make things easier.”

“As for folks I would like to meet, it seems like most of you would be great fun fun to wander through the woods with. All hail the TT genius dudes and gals.”

“Yeah, we rock.”

“Dont get me wrong, I'd hike with anybody around here. The people I named earlier are some of the folks that I have posted back & forth a buncha times and I just haven't hit a trail with yet.

Hell, I'd even BP with Tarp Rat. And if I'm feeling crazy enough I might even hook up with bacpac. I figure if I'll hike with Rad anything is possible. LOL!!!”

“I've arisen from the dead and I'm a martyr. And hey, you might find me on the trail.”

“I would like to meet and hike with everyone! All of the ones that I have met from here and the many, many I have met from another website have been some of the nicest people I have ever known. It seems that backpacking erases gender, social, and age differences like nothing else. It all comes down to the real person when you're sweating and huffing up a hill.”

“You said it, bpbaby.”

“hey walkindude, you forgot me, over here! We don't live near each other, so you can atleast make believe you want to meet me, lol.”

“Oh yeah.”

“I'd like to meet Ginger Baker.

I met a group of guys from Tennessee up on the Roaring Plains WVa.
They could have been TT people.
Ya know, middle-age guys with hiking poles and expensive packs and all the latest cool stuff.

I would also like to meet up with Mescalito again and watch the ravens soaring on canyon thermals.

One of these days I will run into that no-good-nik Tarp Rat somewhere on the high plateaus of Monongehela Natl Forest, WVa.
Bring your own hookah, dude!”

“I'd really like to climb with Aricelli Segarra (sp?)

Anyhow, how about one of those 'pack patches' for TT'ers. Probably cheaper and easier to mail out than hats and shirts.”

“I'm curious to meet everybody, but - like walkindude, I'm especially curious about the people I've talked to, traded e's or traded posts with.

I'm really looking forward to meeting walkingdude and the others who come up for the trip in September and renewing acquaintances with people I've already met.”

“bc trailguy-
That is a brilliant idea!
A TT pack-patch would be cool and wouldn't get sweaty like a T-shirt or hat.
I only wear hats when necessary and would not wnat to funk up a nice T-shirt.”

“It would be great to meet all of you, probably not possible though...hopefully a couple of us will be meeting soon, looking forward to it.

Funny, I know quite a few climbers I refuse to assoicate with, no back packers though. With back packers, it's kinda like sex....."....it's all good, some's just better then others".”

“How about tatoos? I'd like to get a nice ole' TT right on the bicep underneath my tatoo of Gary Coleman.”

“mtnsteve, ROFLMAO!”

“Outsize egos with those climbers mtnsteve?

bpbaby--you put my exact feelings so well.”

“Hiking with Jesus, now that's a trail partner...super lightweight, two loaves and seven fishes would last for 5000 meals, if you come to a unpassable stream just lift your hiking pole and cross on dry land or if the weather turns violent He lifts his hand and instant calm. I wont even mention how awesome the fishing would be.”

“I skeert to meet anymore of you...everyone I have met so far is craaazeeeee!

I'm the only normal one. mooooohahahahaaaa!!

>ahem<
>%^P”

“Amy
I'm skert to meet you too. Sirpete said you just walked off and left him laying in the trail.”

“Sarabelle.
Mtn Girl in a hot spring?
A dead guy with a million $$ in his backpack.”

“how about Sarabelle in a hot spring with a million $ in her pacpac?”

“I'd like to hike with Gentle Ben. He always had the best sh!t, and plenty of it.

I'd also like to hike with that guy who disappeared into the North Carolina woods a year or two back. Bet he could show me a coupla tricks!

As for TTers, I especially want to meet anyone going to this summer's llamarama. If you are not going on this summer's llamarama, then to hell with you! (Just kidding, come to SoCal, we'll take a dayhike.)”

“I'd love the opportunity to meet any of y'all from this site..except of course. Sirpete..him, I'd like to just give a noogie or two and punch in the arm!

Who says sibling rivalry ends when you get to be an adult?? LOL!!”

“sonrisas, you missed newgirl behind a pile of lumber. LOL!”

“the patch thing would work -
I have 3 things on my pack that are important to me. Bells from my girls, a piece of surveyors tape and wings.
I'm gonna test this one, marking TT on my pack this weekend to see what happens.

Going to Southern Harriman instead of the Catskills - have to bring back some thru hikers from a party (tonight!!!)”

“It it just says "TT" you might miss out on something good.

The Angel of Booze might pass over you in the night!

T(ee) T(otaller)”

“I think that I wold mebbe like to meet ever buddy that I did not meet awreddy and smell ther butts.

I wold like to meet ever buddy els that I awreddy did meet agin and smell ther butts some more. A girl jus can not smell to many butts thees days.

If ever buddy wants to put suppers in my mouf when I meet you that is ok cuz I will not bite off yer feengers.

I wold like to meet Buddur Dog and smell his butt good and mebbe have sets but I will not get preggent cuz I am fixed. It is ok to have sets if you are fixed, so I am not a slut whor bitch dog! I am jus whorny by end stinks.”

“Not sure I want sarabelle to sniff my butt. Kleetn maybe, but not sarabelle.

I'd like to hike with everyone here. I'll try to make more of the larger trips. There's safety in numbers.

But I REALLY want to hike with Sophie Marceau. Oh lord, would I like to hike with Sophie Marceau.”

“I would like to meet and hike with any of the group around here. Gotta be a good time. But for just wishful partners it would be Jack Kerouac, Bob Dylan, and Tina Turner.”

“I don't know Jack.
Why Bob?
Tina is a babe.”

“Arclite. Sophie Marceau? I can appreciate that notion. She could probably even hold her own backpacking, would appreciate the wildnerness and she's a whole lot more appealing than Jessica Simpson!”

“Sophie Marceau? Marcel's daughter??? A quiet backpacker, for sure, if so.”

“i want to meet lizs!

grr! baby! grr!”

“Gee Mel, now I feel left out!..(pout)”

“Mel, wow, Pamster & Liz, I'm honored to be in such good company, lol.

As for eating off of TomT, the amount of antibiotics I would have to take to do this would probably reduce the effects of those drugs for me when I need them in the future. Besides that, it was his arm that we saw in the nude picture, lol.”
