aka the 2003 midge swap.

I guess we can forget about those ? At least I havent heard or seen
anything to or from Matt in quite
a while.

Yes, and it looks like I wasted my time for the latest FS2004 swap
also. I tied my butt off to get them off early before I had to leave
on business (lost package)!

I quit these things for good!



Must be bad karma. I've never had a problem.



Funny you bring up karma.


It really is, because if you'll remember, I had signed up for the swap, but
backed out because of the tyer limit when you stated you would be joining. Since
you are by far the better tyer, I thought the swap would be better served by
your presence than mine. Man, my karma *IS* in extereme-good mode, eh?

Getting ripped off by Matt got me to thinking
about karma. I'm pretty trusting ie. I don't lock my house or my car
(some people would say this is stupid), but I don't get ripped off.

Matt's a dickhead. He ripped off a bunch of people. It's even worse when
it is by someone you "know".


It really is the first roff-organized swap I can remember that fell apart. It's
too bad it happened, but the other swaps shouldn't be judged by that one
failure. If Matt had a good reason for the failure, he certainly never made it
known. My feeling is that he'll have to live with whatever karma he generated
and the rest of the participants can still sleep well at night. ;-)
