It would be kind of like calling a 1-900 sex line and chatting up the girl then deciding based on her kind sexy voice, the tender and compassionate way she talks to you and her gentle eliciting of erotic feelings that she would make a good wife...In reality she's probably a 350 Lb chain smoker with 8 kids sitting naked on her sofa eating Cheetos from the cavernous abyss that is her cleavage...

Good Gawd Man, that's a visual I didn't need...I think I'm gonna hurl...

I've only been flying with Falc as a BOP for a short time, and he's a stand-up guy.

That's great Jeff...

I'm not saying Falc isn't deserving of anyone's internet man-love. Judging by the heart-felt posts here he is indeed a veritable "magnet" for deeply profound and mutually gratifying man-love and I have no doubt he is very deserving of that kind of affection. I'm just saying, especially for the younger folks, that online relationships are based on only a minuscule fraction of the information about a person that real life interpersonal relationships are. To lose perspective of the fact that this makes it very likely your opinion of a person online is almost entirely without "real" underlying substance can be potentially dangerous...This isn't about whether Falc is worthy of being man-loved over the internet or not. It's just a general cautionary message that could apply to anyone, you, me, Falc, the pedophile down the street, the guy with the lampshade made from his internet girlfriend's skin etc...

Holy crap Zazen! 

Did the Jennifer you met online turn out to have a pee-pee or something?

The way you keep ranting on about this subject makes me think you had a bad experience or something.

Who cares?

No, I am just getting tired of seeing my grocery store's, "Missing kids", wall filled to capacity with hundreds of youngsters who ran away from home to meet a "great guy" and "special friend" they met online and were never seen or heard from again until one day their decomposing body parts wash up on a local riverbank.

It really is difficult to get a picture of someone based entirely from internet activity.  The internet user provides little snipits of information to you, fashioned to provide a picture they've tailor-made.  The huge blanks that you fill in are ones that you yourself have to create based upon the little snipits.

BINGO! Winner-Winner Chicken Dinner!!!

It's just like trying to distinguish objects in the dark. Your brain is a pattern recognition machine. In the dark you think you are looking at a rabbit, in the light you realize it was a rock. In the absence of real information your brain auto-fills, from a mixture of self-projected desire and memory, the rest which creates an illusion. A man dying of thirst in the desert is going self-project his desire for fluids and see every distant sand dune as a watering hole. Just as kids who live on the internet, lacking in real interpersonal relationships, are going to see every "nice guy" online as their real world "best friend", which can be really creepy, spooky and dangerous...

I drove to the convention In Indy with Mike and Tony <CDog> from Maryland.Thats a LOT of time spending with someone so I think I can say better than anyone on this forum that Falc is one of the best people Ive ever had the honor to meet from this game in person.Hes right up there with Hajo as far as level attitude and respect for others.]
 I would bet alot have more of an issue with the sheer size of the Bops than certain members.

If the horse fell in love with a mare it met online and decided to hook up with it, then there is a chance it is dead. 

Otherwise the Zazen's horse named "Look at me, I hijacked this thread" is probably alive and well...we shall see.
