Lisbon, Portugal, 23rd September 2006
Hey everybody,
just thought I'd let you guys know that Lucifer, Hagatha and I will be getting together for dinner in Lisbon on Saturday the 23rd of September and I'm thinking is this possibly the 1st TFP get together across the Atlantic? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
This is also my first meeting with TFPers and I'm really excited that it has become a possibility...since most of you are in the States or Canada. It's funny how I've become so attached to the TFP despite that distance! Just goes to show how the world is becoming a smaller place every day...even though every day there's millions more people being born and populating this big old world.
Also to say that if anyone is in the vicinity on that day, fell free to PM me and you can come too! I promise to bring my camera and take a few pics to share with everyone who can't make it...which is probably most of you

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
