Well, here are the best of my photos. If anyone wants hi-res versions, send me a PM, and I'd be happy to send you the full-size version. They're pretty big.

Just so you know. I may be leaving Legion World to start a Helen Killer Message board.

So many memories, so many one liners to tease you guys with.
And i got to talk with Paul Levitz
Got to go now.....sleep taking over......must resist.... ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzI want everyone to know the real reason FL is smiling in all his photos. It wasn't until Saturday night that I finally put it all together. Every time he's in a photo, Gigi is right next to him, arms around each other, a dreamy couple. What you don't see is while Darden hugs Jen close, she reaches down and squeezes his ass! None of this "Say Cheese" crap, she's goosing the lad. Combined with the story of Hrun the Barbarian, throw in a few drinks, and that's one frisky little lady behind all them giggles.
Just spouting off.

I got back last night (after quite a few hours of delays) and after unpacking conked out. I had a fantastic time hanging out with you all and definately want to do it again sometime. I'll try to get my pics uploaded over the next few days.

What a mess of delays and frantic connections. But I'm home and happy to be back at my on-line home too. I don't have many pics that haven't been covered by others, but will post a few tomorrow. Next time - I'm calling you all at 4 a.m. to join me on a wild coffee drinking spree! We'll see who can handle the karaoke at that hour.

I managed to fit everything I got into two carry-ons and two checked pieces, but just barely. Had I gotten anything else, I would probably have had to abandon some of my clothing in San Diego.

Let's just be thankful it didn't come to that!
(Although I would have probably fashioned a loincloth out of all the random "freebies" I got -- i.e., postcards, zines, etc.)

Al had so much stuff in CJ's room that I had to help me carry it downstairs. I think that he had to give Gary money to ship it back to him.

The box for the complete Fin Fang Foom set alone was a killer! Add in a King Greyskull and a few Gigantas, and you're definitely looking at UPS...

Finally got Photobucket to let me see them. They're great! We still haven't had anyone post a high-rez copy of the Saturday morning group shot yet, though.

Just wanted to give everyone I saw the short two days I was at con a big "HI", and a "sorry" since I didn't get to say bye.
It was an un-planned departure by all means ( I was supposed to be there till Monday).
I had so much fun the little bit of time I got to spend with all of you so thanks for that!
I can't wait for another chance to see you again some time.
*hugs all around*

One day when I was having breakfast, a family came in. Two of the little boys were playing with action figures (Btman and Martian Manhunter) They held the two figures face to face next to each other. Then one of the boys made a kissing sound. See what allowing gay couples to marry causes.

All day yesterday and Monday, I could still feel that home-made Legion flight ring on my finger. I still get twinges.

After 3.25 years of talk and planning, it was over in the blink of an eye. I truly regret leaving Sunday.
