Sure - call me Gar. "Typo Boy" is just a joking way of dealing with the fact that my posts end up with a lot of typos I don't always catch. And I do think that the tower is cool. And I read the viridian newsletter online, cause I get enough stuff in my e-mail box. The particular style of presentation is such that things don't seem to stick as well with as stuff from other sources. (This is not a criticism, because I think that it is an artefact of the way my mind deals with that style rather than the style itself, which is rather cool.)

There was a guy at my band tonight who is from Melbourne. He's just visiting his boyfriend (who's in band) for a few weeks.

So of course, I had to ask if he knew Angus. Just to see. He pointed out that Melbourne is a city of 3 million people. And I told him I just HAD to ask. Cause if he did know him? How cool would that be? (Plus, if you were from Australia, but happened to know a lesbian in her 20s from DC, it's quite possible I'd know her. I mean, quite possible I wouldn't, too, but...the whole demographic thing, ya know?)

Possible? From what I saw, highly probable.

Was his name Gideon? I've got a friend matching that description over there atm.

Um, no. I think it was Tony. But now I'm forgetting. It was some normal type name like Scott or Tony or Matt or something. He didn't have a nametag, see....

He looked very gay. Thin, cheekbones, earring, gayboy hairdo, starting to gray...

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Ok, I need some help. I was just watching "Inca Mummy Girl" again and I need to know if I have to clean my crack pipe or not. Did anyone else notice the steering wheel on Oz's zebra-striped van is on the right side of the vehicle? What's up with that? t /Not So Obsessed He Now Has To Know Everything

Yes- it's on the right side in some episodes, and then (either later or before) it's on the left. Several nit-picking people have picked that up.

Signed, I just read the 'flaws' lists in other people's reviews.

Ha! Nice try meara. Actually, when I was living in Adelaide the odds of my knowing a fellow Adelaide person of any description were pretty fair; the probability of my knowing a fellow Adelaide gay person was about 0.99.

Hah! That's what I figured, Angus. Hell, I'm more likely to know "oh, I have this lesbian friend in DC, do you know Mary?" than "Oh, I know a guy who went to your college", it's really quite sad...

You always feel silly asking those kinds of questions, but you really just have to sometimes....

When I was in uni, my roommate's boyfriend was got an email from someone from the Yukon saying that "he'd heard his friend Carlos was in Montreal," and did Erik know him? He didn't, (he didn't know anyone who wasn't an engineer or some other flavor of computer geek, really), but he passed the email along to my roommate, and it turned out to be someone I was in a class with. So he got reconnected with his friend (Carlos and Amahl, from the Yukon, who knew?) and I ended up becoming really good friends with Carlos. So it can happen.
