So we had a wonderful time and hopefully she'll be willing to meet more axe murderers in the future. It was great meeting you!

Ruthie however was on her best behavior and had left the axe back at the hotel.

Originally Posted By ShivaThDestroyer What did I say?? It's a really nice little axe. I will admit I've never seen an axe made by Cutco before though. It has a red handle to match her other kitchenware and comes with free lifetime sharpening. It is even engraved "To our favorite LP Axe Murderer, from your loving fans at Cutco". I didn't see it at her Disney Shrine the last time I was at the house. I was assuming she took it with her. JazzCat, I'm sure you must have misunderstood her, we all know Ruthie is the "darling" of LP. (davewasbaloo comes in a close second).

OR ELSE!!!!! LOL! Thanks for sparing her life, JazzCat! In my case, the onion rings were a Hawaiian pizza. But I know the same wonderous experience of meeting an LP'er for the first time and feeling instantly comfortable. What a testament to this community! And how terrific for both of you! I'm so happy you had this Meet!

Originally Posted By officerminnie Here I am!!! Alive and well and back from a wonderful conference in the lovely city of Yakima! JazzCat, I too had a great time visiting with you. I know could easily have stayed another 2 1/2 hours and kept on yakking. I thought it was funny that we both hesitated about telling anyone we knew that we were going to meet "a person from the internet" because they wouldn't understand. Folks who aren't on LP just wouldn't get it. I think you caved and told a couple close friends, but I didn't tell anyone - so if you HAD been an axe murderer, no one would have had any clue as to "whodunnit" .
