My Chat with Terry Carter!

Sarika · April 23rd, 2009, 11:45 PM

Yesterday I logged in to facebook and noticed a few of my friends were online, one of them being by chance, Terry Carter!! (the Colonel himself)

So I decided to try my luck and opened up my chat window with Terry and before I knew it, we were chatting!
Kind permission has been given by Terry for me to share with you all the little chat I was fortunate to have with him before he went to have breakfast.
There was a small break in the chat due to Terry seemingly going offline for a centon, then he came back again..yay! :-*

I can say he is a very lovely gentleman even though i only spoke with him for just a few minutes, but well worth it! Sigh.... :-[ Made my day!

Chat with Terry

Sally

Good evening Terry, hope you are well?
5:15pmTerry

Good morning Sally! I'm very well. How are you?
5:16pmSally

Very well indeed thank you! So nice to make your acquaintance. I am honored to chat a little with you

5:16pmTerry

In what part of the world are you?
5:17pmSally

I live in Australia, north Queensland. Have you ever been down under?
5:17pmTerry

Not yet! How do you manage to keep the dots over the 'o' in your name? That's very Swedish!
5:19pmSally

Terry is no longer online. The following was not sent:

LOL!! Actually the "dots" are germanic. I simply hold the key "option" and the letter "u" and then press the letter "o". Indeed you would know about these things as I heard you once spent some time living int he netherlands?
5:21pmTerry is online.
5:23pmSally

Um did you get that last reply of mine? Sorry, I think you went offline for a momen there.
5:23pmTerry

No, I'm right here, but I didn't receive a reply.
5:24pmSally

lol...well, to answer you querry as to how I keep my dots in my name, i simply hold the key "option" then press the key "u" and then press the key "o" and viola!
5:26pmSally

Actually, I'm half German, from Austrian roots
5:26pmTerry

That was not my question. I have a key board that does it. ööööö. My question related to your being in Australia where people don't ordinarily have 'ös' in their names.

Ah, I see!
5:27pmSally

LOL! I read that you spent some time living in the netherlands Terry. Do you still reside there these days?
5:29pmTerry

No, I'm in Scandinavia these days. I just got called to breakfast. Gotta go! Nice chatting with you, Sally!
5:29pmSally

Thank you so much Terry, enjoy your breakfast! Have a wonderful day!

Cool.

I wish I could have chatted with him too.
He seems like a very nice person.

Darrell Lawrence · April 28th, 2009, 06:02 PM

Was this an interview, open for anyone chat or a private one on one chat?

That's a very good question.
I was wondering about that too.

Hi Warrior, no this was just a impromptu private one on one chat. I was just damn lucky to find Terry online at the same time as myself. It was a first!

Still smiling from it.

Sarika -

We're glad that you enjoyed it, but you said that it was a private one on one chat. Did you tell Terry that you'd be posting the chat in a public forum?

Not meaning to criticise, it's just a question.

Yes I have let him know via PM. Terry hasn't replied as yet.
However, I didn't think there would be any problem since there is nothing very personal or sensitive mentioned in what was just a brief chat.

Sarika · May 4th, 2009, 10:53 PM

I heard back from Terry and he doesn't mind at all that I have shared our little chat on the forum.

I just had a chance to watch "Foxy Brown"... in which terry played Pam Grier's boyfriend!

They even had several VERY steamy scenes in bed!

a very down to earth person indeed and he was always one of my fav characters

that brings back memorys.. years back.. my mom worked at the Holiday Inn near IAH in Houston.. There was some kind of convention or something in town.. and Several Stars from various sci fi shows were staying at the hotel.

My mom took me to work becuase Terry Carter was there. well I met him going into restaurant. he ended asking me to sit with him and bought me a hamburger and talked about the show. he was really a great guy, and told me several behind the scenes things..

of course when my mom found out i was eating dinner with Terry Carter she flipped thinking I had asked him for food. he set her straight thankfully or im sure I would have a second consecutive life grounding sentence.

hope you folks have a really good day.
