Wow that sounds awesome. I just missed my favorite convention all because of financial reasons or else I would have gone. Check this out:

this is just a small part of what it looks like and what happens. Of course you get to see the sci/fi, fantasy artists and writers too. Kathy

If all goes well, you'll also have the partially insane author with no real SW stuff other than three T-shirts and a Darth Vader MR sabre that could be taped to the front of a Classic Army M15A4 Rifle to make a halfway-interesting combination of airsoft and Star Wars.

I hope everyone is watching COMIC-CON 06 LIVE on cable channel
#145 (G4). I guess it is running thru Monday. Comic book conventions are just so awesome, at least I went to one and enjoyed the guests as well as some of the comic book artits. Anyway check your onscreen tv guide, it will give you all the dates and times it will still be showing. Kathy

There are two new Sci Fi Shows to watch:
Eureka and Stan Lees Lightspeed on the Sci Fi channel on your cable tv which is channel #37. Anybody been watching Eureka? I was underwhelmed. Any thoughts? Kathy

Summer's been a drag for me. Lots of conflict with living arrangements, child custody, and finances. Still, the Force is with me.

If we manage to put a plan together to attend, I want in.

Being the road-trip advocate I am, I can't bear to say this, but Southwest has ninety-nine-dollar one-way specials, though the security crapola you'll have to endure to get on such a flight is nowhere near worth it.

To me.

If you mean a day as a 24 hour drive. I use to drive from Houston to Santa Barbara California almost every summer. It would take me 2 1/2 days to make the drive. This wasn't straight through, I would sleep every night usually in New Mexico and then just west of San Antonio. Just getting through Texas was a good day. Of course I just took the I-10 straight across the country.
