Cantus Tantamount to fatuity Registered: 30/07/01 Loc: Down the road	Devkev is fairly nu skool. When i first met him a few years ago at glastonbury he didn't even really know what HoP was. He only joined last year sometime. _________________________ "I'll carry this....It's harder to spill a hat" - Chellybean "...like a rabbit caught in a lighthouse?" - Chellybean

Pele the henna lady Registered: 15/12/00 Loc: WNY, USA	Dave in Texas poiggled years ago. He is also the one, as far as I know, who was the first to get a pair of power skips when they were new and poi on those too. I wonder what happened to him. So, two years ago I was called Mother Nature in this thread. Makes me wonder who I am now! And holy crap...how fast HoP grew if there were only 5 thousand regged in 2003! I'm kinda impressed to see how many old skoolers are still bumping about. This did make me giggle. _________________________ Pele Higher, higher burning fire...making music like a choir "Oooh look!

Been spinning weaves for 6 years, and now I've got into poi again I'm happy spinning circles I've got a new group hug smiley _________________________ You aren't thinking or really existing unless you're willing to risk even your own sanity in the judgment of your existence.
