Hey Everyone!

Well as you know we safely (not to mention finally) made it to San Diego late Wednesday night. Unfortunatly we got in to late and we missed preview night at the Con, but i don’t think anyone cared to much. We were all just happy to finally be in San Diego. When we got to the hotel and checked in, most of us headed down to the bar/rest to grab some food and some beers to celebrate our glorious trip down the US. When we finally got to bed at 3am Me, Bill and Morgan gave Ben the demanding lead in the point race. I will let you know what gave him the large lead at a latter date.

FIRST DAY AT THE SAN DIEGO COMIC CONVENTION :

WOW. Their is very little else to say about the convention. I was blown away by he sheer size of the convention center. Let alone what was beyond the exterior.

When we got there we made it in the Con with little hiccups. The lines were kinda lame, but thank god we are professionals in the eyes of the con, or we would have been waiting a hell of a lot longer. Me and Adam were the last 2 of us to make it through the line, and my jaw just droped the second we walked into the exhibitors hall. Unless you go to this thing there are very little words to describe the place. “Died and gone to geek heaven” or a “kid in a enourmous candy shop” come to mind. The pictures i took can’t do this place justice. There is so much to see and more important so much cool stuff to buy. I am worried that Matt is going to be calling his parents in the next few days begging and pleading to wire him money to buy that one last Optimus Prime collectible. The place is an internet celeb watering hole. Yesterday i had a good chat with Maddox, Penny Arcade guys, The Dayfree Press boys and a bunch of others. Most of us were all over the place. Morgan and Jessica were dressed up as Han and Slave Leah, and could not walk 20 steps before they were asked for a picture. So Morgan the smart little boy he is, handed out a card to everyone that wanted a picture taken. Most of the rest of us were either manning our booth (Artist Alley – HH11) or just wandering around the show floor. I think i walked a circle around that place 4 times, and without fail i would always see something new that i had missed before. Just as a side note: Yesterday and Sunday are the “slower” days of the Con and walking from one end of the hall to the other end can take upwards of 30 minutes. And that is without really stopping to check stuff out.

We made it through the day with fairly decent traffic through our booth. We aren’t HUGE so the majority of people there don’t really know us. But you had better believe that when someone came with reach we gave them a business card. We did however sell 2 sets of the LRR season DVDs, which was pretty neat. And according to Graham, Will Wheaton popped by our booth, pretty neato!

So today is another day back at the Con. Going to be a little bit busier today which is cool. And panel wise there is a couple things going on. Kevin Smith being the big one for most of us. And today is the start of the film fest, and we are featured at 1:50pm with our smash hit “Talk like a Pirate”

There is so much more crap i could write about but it would take me a while. If anyone has any questions about the con or how things are going for us just post them in the comment section.

Another quick thing. If you have ever thought about visiting San Diego for whatever reason, I would highly suggest it. I haven’t seen much but of what i have its a gorgeous city.

I will do my best to get some pictures up here in the next day or so. People were talking about going out tonight but there has been a minor cold going around with us (thanks Morgan) that i caught and have yet been able to shake it. So i expect to be back at the hotel as soon as the Kevin Smith Q&A is over. Which should mean another blog update tonight. Followed by a really good sleep.
