For the first time in 4 years, I met a DUer in real life today.
DU's very own Bunny came to the store where I work!
Unfortunately, the meeting was brief, since I was
"on the clock" and didn't have much time to chat.

Still very cool, though. It's always great to put
a human face and voice to a screenname!

:woohoo:

:bounce:

:hi:

:fistbump:

2. I've met six.
I've always been leery about doing it, but, without exception, I've enjoyed every one.

Has it been that long since you were out here?

Good grief!

Glad you had a good time, sweetie!

10. I've only met one DUer
And the times we met were great! :) I really want to meet more, but it seems like my sked never allows that to happen. All the meet ups are usually at night or on weekends, and I work nights and weekends!

9. That was pretty cool!

I enjoyed meeting you, too. I've only met a handful of DUers and it is nice to have a face to put with the name. And your directions were pretty easy to follow: walk in the store and turn LEFT! :) :hi:

11. The pleasure was mine
Being a former trucker, I'm good at directions.
