Well, the adventure draws to a close. Our plan was to take Chris to the airport around 9 and head back to browse for a couple of hours. But we didn’t schedule quite right and traffic was still bad the closer you got to the convention center. By the time we got...
I got interrupted loading pics and lost several. Here are the missing….
This was GOING to be the last day, so we were prepared to get the most out of it. And there were panels we all wanted to see on our own, so we did. Troy headed off to see Heroes panel, Chris went off to see Futurama and Simpsons and I…well… I wanted to...
They warned us about crowds and lines. They weren’t kidding. But nothing any different than Disney World. And instead of a 3 minute ride, we generally got an hour of entertaining and informative information. Not to mention all the tv and movie stars. Granted,...
The energy was ramped up for Friday. Crowds lned up well before the doors opened and people were decked out in costume. Still missed the Stormtrooper parade. Have NO idea where it was or if it existed. However, bands of stormtroopers wandered the exhibit hall, groups...
Had to crash last night after we got back. Not a super late night or anything, but after all that activity being around all those people, and…well…we were all pretty wiped out. We ALMOST went to the Rocky Horror Picture Show…maybe tonight. Today,...
Here are some various shots from some of the sessions we went to, some costume shots and other stuff. I’ll try to add some descriptions.
Just a quick entry. We’re about to watch a panel on women in horror, fantasy and sci-fi moderated by Kevin Smith. Will explain and/or update photo captions later. FUN! Richard Hatch from Battlestar Galactica Castle Grayskull There’s an old school Cylon...
I’m SOOOOO freakin’ tired and we haven’t really started yet! I’ve been up since 3:30 this morning after a 3 hour nap. While it’s only 10:30 out here, it’s 12:30 back home. Troy is snoozing on the couch (funny, hunh dad?). Anyway,...
OH YEAH! Troy did good. We arrived at noon at the Hotel Sommerset…well before normal check-in. But we were so darn charming and geeky that the lady said we had our choice of floors and choice of rooms. She asked if we wanted an EXECUTIVE suite. We said,...
Yes. 3:30 came VERY early this morning. Plus the fact I’m sleeping in a strange place and concerned with making sure I’m up to catch the flight I didn’t sleep much. However, we boarded the plane from Little Rock and made it to Dallas without a hitch....
WOO HOO! On the road I go. Packed my bags, bought some goodies, and gave my girlfriend a smooch before heading south to Little Rock. Already the mood is set when my friend Troy gave me a gift he’s had for several years. It’s a signed set of Bluntman and...
