Striker StrikerI forgot to check the oil pressure
Sorry to post another journal this fast, but I remembered something I did not post in my last one.

One of the comments 2 journals ago when I said I was leaving for a couple of days was.
"Withdrawing from a heavy TWHL addiction can be quite difficult. Symptoms include nausea, cold sweat, night fever, and diarrhea.", by 2muchvideogames.

Add to that "dreaming TWHL related stuff".

Yes, I dreamed being together with a TWHL member. I don't clearly remember all the sequence, but I know at some point I entered a train, sat down and had a friendly talk about "interesting things" (probably mapping). Then at some point, I accidentally dropped something from the train. So I said to him "wait, I'm gonna jump, get it and come back!". So I did. Unfortunately, although I was running really fast(I mean, FAST), the train was too far away to catch. And so the dream ended with me being extremely upset I didn't got to know him better, discuss more and become friends.

I am not going to tell you who the member was though. ([EDIT] Perhaps in the next journal)

Actually, to cut some boring moments of your life, try to think of what would have happened next if I could have got up on the train again. Imagine!

P.S. Man, this dream just fuelled my enthusiasm of maybe some day be able to make a TWHL meeting in real life. That would be so rad, bros!
TWHL is and will remain a special community because it has given to me one of the best friends. Although he left the community long ago, I still talk to him everyday.

It was Soup Miner, right? I had that exact same dream about him except instead of a train, we were riding unicorns, and I stole his cereal. Actually, come to think of it, it was a pretty different dream.

TWHL meet-ups have occurred.
Tosse (remember him?) spent a week with Urby. Me and Livewire see each other a couple of times per year, and we spent the night at urby's once.
Also when Daubster moved from Lithuania to Scotland for uni, he was just in time to experience proper Scottish drinking at my 18th.

Always in the UK, though. Never heard about a meet-up elsewhere, which seems odd since there are several members from close-by states to each other in the US, and several from Aussieland.

UK is a pretty shitty country to organize meet-ups(sorry, no offending intended). A proper meet-up would be saving money to go on a trip to a tropical coastline or something closer like Greece...
Well, it kinda exceeds our budgets(especially unemployed guys like me), but you know what I mean.
[EDIT] Fuck, I so want to win the lottery.

Archie, if that's true, that's fucking heroic.

Welcome back. Don't leave again too soon or you'll hurt your brain.

Let's just say it was true and move on.

You mean TWHL is like NZT? Oh boy...

I almost met up with NineTnine once. The circumstances at the time prevented it though.

There was someone here from Charlotte, NC. I forget who it was, but I proposed hanging out some time. He didn't like the idea.
Not that I blame him.

I'm in America. I have no chance of seeing ANY of you. Except maybe Soup Miner.

Edit: wait duh, Lukes here too, doesn't matter i'm still several states away.

just think, you can all go meet Dimbark...

...And then take him to Satchmo for some healing after you break his legs.

You could all meet ME!

My father has expressed intentions to drag me to New York "soon". But don't expect too much from me if I actually come along. Remember I'm a boring electronics geek.

I've met up with Ant down here in Melbourne a couple of years back. Also kraken saw me at uni once but I didn't see him and was sprinting for the train, so I don't think that counts.

Also, dewdle/doodle attempted to meet up with Ant a couple years ago at some university presentation night where Ant's animation was being showcased. This failed miserably as dewdle didn't know what Ant looked like and ended up speaking to a random thinking it was Ant for upwards of 45 minutes.

Awkward.

That's funny. This can be avoided by a planned meeting. Somewhere in the future, when all of us will have jobs. Or at least some lucky guy from here becomes a millionaire(and then forgets us...).

Also guys, you are missing a HUGE clue in this journal to guess who the person was :). You'll anyway find out in my next journal.

I had a dream that Skals was chasing me down with an axe from minecraft. I remember at one point, we were at a beach, and I think there was something to do with turtles.

Oh, and I saw my uncle stick his head out of a window. I asked why he was doing that, and I was informed that was the way he sleeps during a storm.

Replace 'Skals' with 'brendanmint' and it wont be a dream anymore
Commented 13 years ago2011-06-23 16:09:40 UTC Comment #57635
Then it will be a wet dream.

I just went there. Come at me, bro.
Commented 13 years ago2011-06-23 19:12:56 UTC Comment #57652
I'm fucking coming at you bro. Get fucking ready.

I've also had Masta Killa (Taylor) visit me in Scotland with his friend for a few awesome days. Good times.
