I did try to kill you off with beer and curry Helmut83 but it didn’t work Did BSJ not mention the ray gun fight we had when we met This was while Mrs Wimp was fighting with tk6 You know I hesitated bringing this up, Horacewimp. Everyone see's you as mild mannered get along guy. I didn't want to destroy the myth. Let's get the fact's straight. You and Mrs Wimp were laying in wait.

Bah, you seriously underestimated the amount of beer that's needed for killing me off, Horacewimp. I've got no doubt Mrs Wimp must have neutralized and immobilized tk6, but who won in your fight against BSJ? If she's got the same marksmanship she has for hitting the keys when spelling my name, then it must have been an easy victory for you...

The action had to stop when we went through security at Detroit Airport they confiscated the ray gun, spoil sports.

The staff of the fish and chip shop were all members of Wales' crack secret service, disguised as restaurant workers Helmut83 bach. Any trouble from you and I'd have shouted the code words "TIDY BY'YERE MUN". This would have triggered Operation Sheep Storm, and you wouldn't have stood a chance. So it comes out it was the other way round: I, inadvertently, was the true intrepid hero of the story, the one who risked more to meet a potentially dangerous forum member! That must also explain why the waiters shouted "defaid, defaid" to each other from time to time. I wonder what Operation Sheep Storm consists in...

How do you explain Mrs Wimp dropping from the ceiling with saber at the ready landing on tk6's back? And, I really didn't appreciate you grabbing me by the ankles making me fall forward. You almost destroyed me Damey shades. By the way, we ratted you two crazy's out.

Don't blame me. It's the cheap doing what it was created to do!

Nowadays everyone shares everything about themselves online. I'm very shy about it though. You guys have a way of coaxing it out of me. Did you ever notice I never even revealed my gender at first! I think I've always had you as a female though, but yeah, I know you are quite reserved. Still, as you are well aware of, we are slowly making you open your heart to us. Starting with your photo with Lord Dame, who made everyone a bit jealous. In certain contexts I don't like sharing personal information about myself either. However, on this forum I feel totally safe (and I think many people do, as I'm far from the only one here to share a lot of information about himself). I mean, we are all from such far away places, and mostly all grown up people, that I think the risk is next to null. Besides, there's so few people that know about ELO that the chances of having a swindler, a rapist, an assasin or a pervert "hunting" here are really low. Those guys have sooo many better places in which to lurk than a forum of a long time forgotten symphonic pop band... If you think about it, there are forum members whom in the past have been much more audacious than just telling their name, their job or posting a picture of themselves. I think who tops them all is the intrepid vlogdance . When still no forum members meetups had taken place, she decided to meet personally in a fish & chips restaurant in London with a guy whom she had never seen before, and on top of everything came from the dangerous South America! The others who followed had it easier, because if I had been an assasin or whatever I would surely had struck before. Anyway, good thing she did because that meeting it started out a series of very successful and entertaining forum members personal encounters (the last one being vlogdance herself with unomusette ). I couldn't not share that photo. I keep it on my phone and show it to people often and with only the slightest provocation. I showed it to a cashier at the supermarket because she liked my Xanadu t-shirt. Then I showed it to the person behind me in the line. Last weekend I showed it to two strangers at a bar who barely knew what I was talking about.

I'd do the same. I mean, it's freaking Jeff Lynne on the photo. You know, the guy who worked with George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty... Once you've shown a photo of yourself, what difference showing other photos makes? They already know your face... What did you tell, for example, the person behind you in the line? Who was the fuzzy guy with you on the photo?

What did you tell, for example, the person behind you in the line? Who was the fuzzy guy with you on the photo? I don't even know what I say. I will literally find any excuse. Sometimes they know who he is and sometimes they don't. I'll be like "He's the guy!" or I'll google up old pictures of Jeff for comparison. With friends I'll just burst out "Oh my god, have you seen my Jeff Lynne photo?" if I get the feeling I've missed them somehow. I'm pretty sure I seem a little crazy. Oh well.

I'll show you my photo of Jeff if you show me yours..... He can come down my chimney anytime...... How did we get from "Time as a two-album set" to this?
