There is a comic con in a couple of weeks i think, but the tickets look a bit steep for me considering i don't buy comics at all. I wouldn't mind looking around at dealer tables for old toys. We should put a swap meet/yard sale thing together now that the weather is nice. |

Actually, I went to college at WPI in Massachusetts...and there, they had a very...uh...lively scifi society/club/cult going on. We called them "Wedge Rats" because they used to loiter in this in-door foyer between two dorm buildings called "the wedge". Anyway, every now and then, we'd come back hammered, high as fuck, or both from where-the-fuck-ever...and we'd have to walk through the wedge to get to our dorm. And sure enough, it was like a medieval renaissance festival...at 3 in the fucking morning. I couldn't actually tell if they were fighting *as anime characters* or as Dungeons & Dragons dude or whatever--drugs'll fuck with your shape-recognition abilities like that...but it was some real-ass shit. Man, would we laugh... Ah, good times. Anyway, Ben (Prometheum5) goes there now...do they still do that shit? Oh, Ed...definitely Beantown vinyl swap meet! |

Yes. I'm considering going and trying to spot them... I went to PAX East last weekend at the same convention center and saw a bunch of them, but none of them together... their influence must be spreading. |

I figured someone around here might be involved in the Japanese Vinyl: Kaiju as Art panel on Sunday. Guess not. Well I'll be there either way! |

"Kaiju as Art"? Yikes...sounds abominable. Yet, I'm morbidly curious. Damn...now I want to go! |

Apparently the Kaiju panel didn't happen... the presenters never showed up. |

There was only like 6 people in the room anyway. I would have stayed home today but made the trek down just to see what this panel was all about...Grrrrrr |

Wow, that sucks. Hope you bitched out the management and got your admission price back (unless you stuck around to hang out)... Now...don't suppose anyone's going to Boston Comic Con? |
