Name: Justin Idyut

Info:: It started back in 1998 when I starting spending time in the 1980's collectibles chat room on AOL.  I wasn't even looking for a date, but the more time I spent chatting with Helen about Madballs, the more I realized that we must be the only two people in the world who felt so passionately about something that others mock.  I felt so wonderful chatting with her.  Normally, people wouldn't even chat with me.

I was so happy to have someone like that to talk to, I knew I had to meet her in person.  Amazingly, it turned out she only lived 2 hours away from me!  She felt the same way about seeing me.  She seemed so nice, and I am a very trusting person.

We met in Burger King over on Hampton St. because that is a public place that I was familiar with, and it is well lit.  She turned out to be just the way I pictured her, except maybe a little fatter.  We hit it off right away.  We talked for hours about Transformers, Madballs, M. A. S. K., He-Man and everything else that make life worth living.  It was wonderful.

It was so wonderful, that I barely even noticed that every time she would borrow a bunch of my stuff, some of it wouldn't come back.  One day when I called her up, she didn't answer.  I kept calling and sending emails, but she never answered.  She has about 2000 dollars worth of collectibles of mine that I haven't seen in 6 months, including an unopened Optimus Prime and that's not the worst of it.  I found out last week I have AIDS.  And I am sure I got it from her.  Take my story as an example.  My life is over.
