There's things I've heard about and/or seen that have made me cringe.

Me too. My RL friend has an on again off again thing with this friend of JM's and I've heard some storrries. Hee. But the gist of it is that he's a nice guy besides all his emotional issues. But yeah, NB would be awesome to meet. He seems like a very down to earth guy, and I don't get that skeevy vibe from him at all.

England and Scotland!?! How exciting, I'd much rather go there than to see JM. *g*
