i'm not really sure what to say, other than, until then. i hate goodbyes...saying goodbye sounds so permanent. i never say goodbye...never. i prefer thinking that there is always a "later".

this is my hope for the relationships that have been formed through whiskerino. i hope to have the opportunity to see those of you who i've gotten to know at some point later.

i will see many of you in May, but i want to try to maintain as many of these relationships with you beyond that. friend me on facebook, email me at joiner.gj78@gmail.com, come to athens and have a beer or bite to eat with me.

thank you, @everyone for making this experience so awesome. thanks for the inspiration, the positive feelings, the memories.

hope to see you soon.

Vanbert says:: you look weird without with sunglasses. i had a blast, see you in may. take care.

Later gator.

mackle says:: it's hilarious to see you without the sunglasses.. they became such a giant part of your whole persona..

you're a great dude and I'll see you in May. Maybe I can even convince you to come up to party in Nashville again.

I've never been to Athens before but if my first trip involves having a meal from you and some drinks - count me in. Please feel free to hit me up anytime you're in Nashville or via email or the IM machine or whatever.

Godspeed and see you soon.

hankbobs says:: what @mackle said.. the sunglasses rule my perception of you. Be it a very blurry perception, but I just can't imagine you throwing down the CLAMEd rap with those glasses on.

Let me know if you want that video to 'disappear', it was really about that moment, out of context its, well, 'STRAIGHT RIDICULOUS'.

Take care dude, great hanging with you, hope to see you in May

mOtke says:: A tiny bear wrapped in a burrito sent a text to someone he didn't know. It read like this:

We should talk. You both know delicious cake bacon biscuit. Right? Heart me.

That person, a dancer and a lizard man, knew exactly what it meant. He hopped on his scooter, secured the helmet around his chin, drank a pint of motor oil, and drove as fast as his legs would take him.

The night owls of the north watched, their heads spinning 9 times before landing on some food. The food was a mouse.
