Tell us something.: I'm not new here. I have been registered here for many years. I am not a spammer, though being from Hawaii, I do enjoy eating spam. Now the site is requiring at least 100 characters in this box. It would have been nice to know that bit of information before I hit submit the first time!

On another thread I realized that I'd never met another whistle player.

How about you? Have you ever met another whistler?

I've met virtually thousands. :wink:

Seriously, though, I've probably met several hundred in the flesh.

I don't get this question. I'm one of the few whistle players I haven't met.

Personally, actually really truly met? None. I was terribly happy when a friend of mine actually recognised my pennywhistle as a pennywhistle without being told. :)

As I was tripping up the stair
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today
I wish that he would go away.

I've only met one other whistler from this board, and they aren't on this board anymore. I guess that speaks volumes.

Lilymaid,
You caught me. I had hoped people would think it is me in my new
renfaire garb. :lol: Yes it's Hank the 8th.

BTW, I like your avatar. I have a giant poster of that very picture hanging on a wall.

Yes, I haven't met any, yet. I hope to remedy that this weekend in St. Louis. Perhaps I'll meet someone else from the board and then we both can decide if that is a good or bad opportunity.

No, but conversely, I suspect I can count the others I've met on the fingers of one hand.
