The Social Thread -- never mind Announcements, let's just chat!

if you haven't heard, the official news from Comic-Con in San Diego:
There will be a Celebration V in 2010, but the exact location and dates are not known yet.

 

Yeah, Sansweet did say "summer 2010" but I suspect we shouldn't take that literally as in post-June 21. I'm thinking Memorial Day is still likely as it is very late next year (May 31).

 

I was hoping for more than that, as we all were. Looks like they are gonna draw it out as much as they can.

 

Steve told us specifically that it won't be on Memorial Day weekend, and that it won't conflict with any other major convention.

 

I think the banner should have a phrase. I spy CV location.

Sorry I could not help.

 

I don't suppose they could combine a CV with any other major conventions? That would be a bit radical, but it would take care of some of their logistical problems..........and create new, more interesting ones.

 

Nothing to attach it to, really, Arden. And we do like our little emphasis on SW, to be sure.

On a side note -- had my visit to Rancho Obi-Wan on Friday. Just overwhelming, folks. Sorry, no pictures -- too busy chatting to take pictures! Anyway, you can see photos of Steve's main collection room all over the web. It's just breath-taking to see. And then there are the storerooms filled with items that haven't been put into a collection room yet. Like I told Anne, it would take a hundred years to get this all sorted out. I could die happy LOL. I wished I lived closer -- get the invite to come help out with cataloging some stuff! Alas, it's not a weekend trip for me, darn it. Anyway, it was super, super fun. So glad I'm a SW fan!
