re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."
steve - looks like thursday is a no-go for now (no babysitter for the little guy).
any plans for friday? how about you scott?
edit -
i think my plan is to bring the kid down friday am, walk around for a couple of hours, head back home and drop him off, then come back downtown before 5pm. i'll be downtown then through sunday checkout.
Still not sure. I'll be there by 11. Hopefully earlier. I'm aiming for 10, but I know that usually means 11. I need to look at the programming schedule to see what's on my plate for Friday...
First day off in ten days. I'm gonna be blowing up the Cantina today.
Funny. I'm off today, and spending LESS time in here than usual. I got **** to do. Trying to clean, find things I need for C2E2, and just take care of crap I've been procrastinating, like laundry. I did make time to watch Game of Thrones though. There are priorities in life!
Everyone has different things they want to do at the con I'm sure, so don't feel like you have to hang out with us all the time at the con. Ken and I usually walk around for a bit shopping together, then he runs off to a panel while I visit artist's alley, then we meet back up later in the day etc.
It'd would be great if you could make it both days, or at least get to do dinner/hang out with us one night. That's where the fun is.
Chien won't be there Friday so Saturday would be your best bet if you want to meet/hang with everyone.
Yep. Lots of dealer room action, with the occasional break for panels. That's how I roll. I may be up for Stan Lee's auto. I already got him, years ago at SDCC at the Sideshow booth. But it was on that book, and I really didn't talk to him at all. I want a better memory and keepsake. That one kinda sucked...
Plus, he wasn't personalizing anything. Dunno if he will this time or not. But Morgan Spurlock personalized it. I would have rather had BOTH personalize it, or NEITHER. But not just Spurlock...
This is what I'm bringing for Stan Lee to sign.
That's awesome. Wish I had one of those...
She puts on a hell of a show let me tell ya!
We always like to be accommodating to our prey... er, I mean friends.
As for the shirt, we all go bare chested and spell out FREAKS on them... currently you have your choice between R and E. (and no Ken...Angie will not be joining in. )
F = Chien (F is for Foreign)
R =
E =
A = Gibby (A is for Aaron)
K = Ken (K is for Ken)
S = Punk (S is for Steve)
LOL at F... Too bad none of our resident Richards are going...
We're considering going to the Dallas Comic-Con... I've never been but Shatner's there and he's pretty much the only actor I'd pay the stupid money to get an autograph and photo with.
I got Shatner, but wish I had also got Nimoy. They were sitting next to each other! I could reach out and touch him, but alas, I did not...
Mara Jade looks like the Twilight chick, but with red hair...
The security at SDCC usually stinks. They're rude (generally) and clueless (generally).
Plus they lie/misinform you...
I've never done a Con for more than a day. With work, family and kids it's impossible for me. CVII will probably be the first one and that's because I have to go away for it and I still feel guilty about sticking the kids with my wife for 4 days.
How much is a Shatner autograph? I really want one on a TJ Hooker photo. That's always been my favorite show of his. The acting was so over the top and unnecessary, it's priceless.
AWESOME!
There's never enough time, even if you go all 4 days...
I paid $50 for Shatner. But he ain't that cheap no more!
