Dragon con bluesies
Whoa, so that's the Modern Day Dragon*con. A fine excuse for wenches everywhere to walk around in their undies for five wonderful days. Not to mention a generous splash of makeup. There were also furry things and characters out of every science fiction, fantasy and manga show ever produced. Including a goodly number of things that hadn't previously existed.
I mean if you've never seen the stormtrooper janitors, you've never lived.
Aside from that, the agonizing 12 hour drive and a body that still doesn't want to behave normally it was an interesting con. Most noteworthy, the differences between now and the last one I attended over nine years ago. (Hell yeah I'm a regular Connie now :) )
So aside from half-naked chicks, half-naked dudes, and enough lightsabers to poke your eye out, here are my top twenty cop outs for Getting your own room.
1. Double D.3 reports - Currently considering bribes not to publish. Beer and chocolate works every time...
2. Several Alien Abductors were spotted walking the halls of Dragon*con . Under no circumstances allow them persuade you to play with their Tricorders.
3. Poseidon VII - Still biting fingernails to the quick, do they or don't they want to buy it? AAArrgghh!
4. The new system of the Barman's Klahdagh appears very successful so far. Managed a few readings while at the dragon and left some folks rather impressed. Higlight of the show though had to be the hamstercromancy. having your fortunes told by a hamster is cool. LOL
5. Valencius Covers His Tracks Actually made a little bit of progress on this one. Feeling good!
6. Everything except Zero Calorie food should be banned. *Stuffed*
7. Grandkid is totally in love. Personally I think the dude is far too hairy and, in spite of his cuteness, really shouldn't be allowed to sleep in her bed. Plus I really don't like his patches of black and white. But hey, what the hell can you do when the poor, abandoned fella stands outside your door and meows plaintively for a whole day?
8. Huw's Entappathe Whorled - Scintillating.
9. Statutory blonde joke: A man and a blonde were passionately making love when the blonde suddenly stops and asks, horrified. "You don't have AIDS do you?" "Of course not," the man replied. "Thank God," the blonde said. "I wouldn't want to catch that again!"
10. Statutory pro-blonde joke: Two men were standing in front of a flag pole staring aimlessly up to its top when a blonde walks up. "What's the problem?" she asked. "We're trying to measure how tall the flagpole is," the men replied. "But we've forgotten to bring out stepladders." "No problem," said the blonde. She took a spanner out of her pocket and undoing the flagpole lowered it to the ground then took out a tape measure and measured it. "Twenty five feet." She announced, then left. The two men stood looking at each other. "Typical blonde," one of them said. "We asked for the height and she gave us the length."
11. Terras IV -- Terrfyingly simplistic. Still starting second chapter next week. LOL
12. Red Balloon/Red Dragon, Blue - Really wanna get back to this one, I love the scary of it.
13. More web page stuff for lj user qnotku's and jmward14's web page coming soon. Check it out here
14. Swansong - Just whistling while it works.
15. Here Be Dragons Bodice ripping, loincloth slashing, pantie peircing and all of this for free... coming soon.
16. Hey guys, why does this clown keep leaving me balloons?
17. Dante I -- Gone to Hell
18. A Fashion Guide for Romantic Heroes aka The Quirky Eye for the Romantic Guy Nicely tucked!
19 Love You To Bits A feast of the undead. Hung. Well hung.
20. Quote of the week: A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. – Herm Albright
Here's wishing you all a wonderful week, and looking forward to seeing ya, hearing from ya and releasing you from alien captivity soon.
