“… and I still want to bring a costume. I have an idea, but we’ll see if I can figure out how to pull it off.”

Be careful in Atlanta. Pulling off your costume could get you arrested.(except at a Dead show)

Go as the Naked Astronomer!

Seriously, haven’t been to Comic Con, but I went to DragonCon and it’s taken me a decade to recover. What a trip! I’ve been to lots of conventions that had attendance of under 1000. DragonCon was like getting bumped from a high sch0ol to a pro team.

Even though I live in Atlanta, I don’t want to do Dragon*Con until I qualify as an SFWA member. Haven’t made it yet. But, I’m gonna hate to miss it. Rock on, Phil.

TAM rocked!

Which suggests that Phil might want to go to Dragon Con dressed as Richard Wiseman. Or George Hrab. Or maybe as Richard Wiseman wearing a George Hrab costume!

Hey, brother of mine! I’m glad you’re coming back to Terminus (Atlanta’s first name)! Maybe we can spend a little time together. I really enjoyed doing that two years ago.

Speaking of the Star Party:

The info page is here: http://www.atlantaskeptics.com/starparty/

Tickets will go on sale very soon. The organizer has had some personal stuff to take care of, but we’ll get the ticket sales going ASAP with plenty of time for people to register.

I hope to see all of you there! Except for the climate change denialist trolls!

See you at Dragon*Con.

Any chance of a mini W00tstock during Labor Day weekend?

See you there. Very excited! Couldn’t you hold a panel like the one you did at ComiCon at Dragon*Con? That would kick ass. Good luck with yer costume. Will you walk in the parade? If you need any help, drop me a line.

Looking forward to seeing you at D*CON. I promise NOT to corner you in an elevator in the wee hours and offer you coffee in my room (1, I hate coffee, 2, my room is in Marietta, and 3, I’d have to do something about that pesky spouse and spawn )))
