But only the gorilla is getting it's money-worth.

I'd call your bluff on that statement. But I don't wanna see that either. Any of it. :barf:

I call shenanigans. Pretty sure if she showed up wearing a cheerleader outfit, you wouldn't care what team colors the pom poms are.

Hell yeah! Right down to the tiger stripes! And still NOT showing my face. >

I have a whole pile of crap that needs to be hand washed from my trip. It's all sitting in a pile on top of the bathroom wastebasket. Instead, I took a nap and watched a 'Live : PD' marathon.

What Rogue and you do in the privacy of his dungeon should stay in his dungeon. While the Sesshomaru wall scroll silently weeps because he can't blink or look away.

Probably taxes. With a non-profit, all money made in a raffle is assumed to be going towards a particular cause and not in any one person's pocket. Since it's going out, it doesn't require being taxed because that would take money away from whatever the cause is. With a for profit type raffle, it's money going into someone's pocket where it will wait patiently until that person can get to the store and buy their chips, dips, beer, cigs and lotto tickets. That requires being taxed as it's technically income at that point even if it's only a one time event for that particular person. As most raffles consist of donated items, a raffle can be 100% profit given the proper venue. Non-profits tend to be registered as such and would be known to the community they are raffling in / for. Individuals aren't registered and neither the quality of the items for raffle nor the raffle itself can necessarily be vouched for.

I'd rather dress like a pimp and own my bike. Rebel rebel.

So I guess we'll never see you as a guest star in the next SyFyllis movie series 'Gatorcane' .

I tend to have a number of books going at the same time both for variety and for place. Like I can and will read anything that interests me in the privacy of my home but I try not to bring anything super awkward to work. Technically, I don't think anything that I would be interested in reading would surprise anyone there but I still try to be nice about things. I also alternate being reading binges where whatever I touch is devoured immediately and the slow savor where it takes forever to get through something. Currently reading at home a Discworld physics book, a text on Asatru, a butt-ton of Psychology Todays, and a Get Fuzzy collection. For work, I'm currently enjoying 'Princesses Behaving Badly' .

Heh, just finally able to post in some of these frickin' folders. The thing started late because there were feed issues on one of the screens and they had to keep fiddling with it to make sure things went through ok for everyone on both the visual and audio portion of things. The only thing 'new' other than official pimping for FLCL2 and FLCL3 was they played the first episode of 'Countdown' . I don't think that was streamed [it wasn't supposed to be but the way some things went that weekend... ]. The swag handed out to the audience was a Tom and Sara t-shirt, a poster featuring various artists' renditions of Tom, and a DragonBall Supers beanie.

Oh ye gawds, every voice in that trailer made it sound like the actor was trapped in a closet reading lines scratched in the wood with no hope of ever getting out. If you can't get into the character, get out of the project. Not saying that would have saved this but it wouldn't have killed it either.

I always supply a back-up choice because there are some things I just can't drink / eat and it shouldn't be on them to have to keep track of whatever food issues I'm dealing with on any given day.

Make some ice too while you are at it even if that consists of some plastic cups half full. If you lose power and it seems like it'll be a bit before things turn back on, you can move the ice from the freezer to the fridge and only go into the fridge if you Really need to - that will help keep the food in the fridge from going bad quite so fast. When the ice melts, you can still drink it if needed.

Then you stink and stink up anyone who has to walk by you or share a coat rack with you.

If you smoke cornsilk behind the fence, you already have issues.

I'm sure if you find a hentai Sesshomaru wall scroll, he'll change out.

Late Saturday night / very early Sunday, a couple of retarded chuckleheads tossed some chairs and some glass bottles off the 10th floor observation deck of the Marriott. Two people were injured - one with a broken wrist and the other with a pretty nasty head wound. Her costume headpiece made with foam and wire actually saved her life because it took a good chunk of the impact from one of the chairs and deflected it. The ones responsible took off immediately into the crowds but there were witnesses that were talking with the police and there may be some security film to look through as well because there are cameras everywhere. There is no actual guarantee that the idiots responsible were even there for Dragon Con. There was also major football games planned for the area that people were getting into hotels early for and most of those people had very punchable personalities.

Ouchie on the ankle. Hope it's just a general sprain or something little and not something serious. The booth was closed by 8p and I would have been at a Gonzaroo by then anyway. I think the Art Show would have been let out by then, there was a break between film marathons in the deeper levels of the Hyatt to allow basement dwellers to go get real food before disappearing into another film hole, and there was also apparently a majorly popular band playing there around then as well - according to the table manager, it was the biggest crowd they'd ever seen for a concert held in that area ever. So I'm thinking you hit the Hyatt during a pure hellstorm of weirdos leaving all at once. The Pulse is always insane. Was He-Man there still busting a move when you were there? I think he's part of the carpet at this point - he's always there everytime I stop through. What happens in the America's Mart stays in the America's Mart. <.< >.>

This morning, Sally and Jono said that they might open Williams Street to people fleeing Florida if they have to. Called them a live-in audience for the programs but I don't think they were completely joking. There was some live stream news going where a bus had been literally flipped over on one of the islands being blasted and people were trying to form human chains to pull people from it before they could be blown away. It was not going well and they had to stop showing any of it because of the very real possibility of seeing someone die right on air. Stay safe everyone. And run like hell if you can.

And in living up to my reputation of not showing my face, I didn't show my face. Woot woot! Con mask activate! That shit only officially came off on Monday when everyone left is too tired to remember their own names, let alone some random booth hag. Not to sound mean but I'm kinda glad you 'got lost' because I was worried that you had been chased away from the table by the crowds and had either decided to deliberately stay away or had returned at a point where I was off getting lost myself. The crowds were on and off all weekend at the booth, even Ken, James and Mark only had a few minutes that they could spare there before having to take off for their own stuff once more. Glad you had funs. The pics are hilarious - the Myers one is my new favorite, I feel like it should be a poster sold in the Dragon Shop. And, Air Born for the win! The only 'germ' I caught while there is a Hepatitis plushie to add to my collection. A voice lower than Dr. the Mrs. Monarch's doesn't count as a germ.

He said he has Aeta. Aeta is assholes. They don't hire doctors to make the medical cover-or-no-cover decisions, they hire accountants and give them a 'Denied' rubber stamp to use.

Nope, they aren't really on my side either. They just don't want to deal directly with me since there's a complaint currently on file about their doctor's lack of brain cells and how the patients have to pay for it. I went in with vertigo, upper abdominal cramping reaching from under the right ribcage around towards the lower back, coughing up blood, passing blood and the 'usual' chest pains. I left with a prescription for nasal spray and an eventual bill for $300 for the visit.

Refineries in the areas have been affected and production has been screwed. So definitely fill your tank as soon as you can and then drive in moderation to make it last. The gas prices are going to start going up. -.-;
