Meeting a VIP
on: October 17, 2013, 09:56:07 PM
While on a shoppng trip to the nearby city of Sault Ste Marie I had the pleasure of meeting our own Chako!

We only had a  few minutes to chat before I had to get going (my ride was leaving) but it was still great to add another member to my Shake Hands list!

I'm willing to bet that Chako was EDC'ing his Knifeless Fuse.  ;)

as for Def and his dad, I have no idea... endless possibilities, really.  :think:

very nice!

I am always surprised when people do not look like their avatar.  I know it is stupid,  but I see that avatar every post, and that is what I think of.  yes, Chako could have been a MT ring, and I would not have even blinked.
If I can help, let me know

It was great to finally meet Def. We had a missed opportunity a few years ago. I did invite him to my house next time around whenever he is in the neighbourhood again. This was a quick meet and greet.  His parents were along, and they didn't have much time before they had to leave the city to go home.

I would also like to see J-sew someday. Bob and I have tried to get together on a few occasions in the past, but never could get things in alignment. He does sometimes visit our sister city in the States while on vacation.

how ? why ? were you spoilt for choice Chako?  :rofl:
I can't believe you went out 'knowing' you were going to meet 'the man himself' and didn't take something cool from your modest collection !!!!!
AND you don't look anything like I imagined you would (not that I've spent ages thinking about you) Def did you check his I.D. ? he isn't wearing the  huge grin of a 'single bloke with lots of cool toys', how can we be sure it IS Chako  :think:

I'm sure it's Chako, I remember seeing a pic of him and he looked roughly the same :)

But I'm not sure that is actually Grant's father's finger :think:
