I'm a big believer in found family. And the Buffistas are often such a thing.
I'm glad Scola found us. He's got a fantastic smile. We'd be poorer without him.
We should have a Chicagoista outing sometime soon with our tommyrot. And any lurkers who might want to join. (If you're in my office, I will be glad to have you, even if I'm a bit disturbed at how much information you have about me and my online activities.)

I believe there's a solid reason why here on b.org, when saying "Scola" from time to time, people mean "awesome" and more than that.
And it didn't take me very long to find out why.
It has been so much fun to read all the origin stories this month. For someone all new and a bit nervous of asking people about themselves, it's also been happily convenient. You're all fab.
