Poll question: Do I need to beef up my DU reputation?
I've been here more than four years now, so I would imagine some might have formed an opinion by now. Lately, I've been wondering if my reputation is slipping.

Let me have it. I think I can handle the truth.

1. Hmmm...
...let me put it this way: If I was showing up in a strange city, to meet people I'd never met, except online, there's noone I'd rather share a veggie Chicago-style pizza with.

8. Hey, that actually happened
and I think I still ate meat then. Thanks! :D You were part of my first DU meetup. In fact, did Chicago pioneer that?

10. I think you had gone off meat by then.
I remember we would order one largish pizza with meat and a smaller one with just veggies.

I'm glad y'all were there for me. I had a great time that night and later in the week. :D

13. Then again (from the same album)
perhaps "The Stranger" helps explain the original question?

;-) (Reference requires memory of the song)

Not really trying to make a point, as much as trying to be clever.

:hi:

18. and it was a great album

7. I'm sure more people know you
than me!

Of course, I just passed my 2 year anniversary on DU last Sunday, so I am like half your age DU-wise.

11. No entry for "Keep those photos coming, please."
That's what I'd vote for.

16. You're the only one
I guess I should take comfort in that nearly half don't know who I am, so I guess it's not a total loss. And, apparently, the rest like the way in which you have corrupted me. ;-)

15. I've been meaning to talk to you about your rep.......
...I believe it's slipping because of the company you've been keeping. ;)

That's why I'm saying "I do" on Nov. 25 — just none of that obeying crap. ;-)

26. Well, you *do* have a reputation in other places.
All totally undeserved, but that's something. :P

No, when I first started here, I rarely posted in the Lounge and stayed in all the forums. Now, it's just the opposite.

Thanks for the nice words.
