Indeed, but not everyone will be portraying their alter-egos. Some probobly would have to make an effort to be in-character constantly.

If we really want to have fun with our costumes at A-Kon, lets do this. If you are in costume you are to remain in character at all times. Kind of like, as if your character is a member of The Pack, but still retains his/her origins and personality. I think it would be fun to at least do that within our group.

What do yall think?

thats awesome.. i dont have much of a costume myself unless you consider my collar with my little tag on it. But hell i wear that everyday anyways heh :D

Well....time to cover those noggins!!! :o

I'm going to A-kon!! Woo Hoo!! :grinp:



I'm not sure.....but this might be the last time I go. I wasn't even suppose to get the time to go this year. The reason is that the week I needed is blocked because Memorial Day is the weekend before A-kon. The boss doesn't want 2 drivers out on vacation at the same time during the busy holiday. I asked if I can get only 3 days for my vacation instead of a whole week. He approved.


Next year will be difficult. I'm going to have to ask the other drivers if I can have the end of May/beginning of June for my vacation. If one of them has plans...then I won't be able to go to A-kon in 2008. :(


I'll just wait and see.

I'm planning on having dinner with some friends at a Cici's Pizza in Arlington on Thursday. It's only about 10 miles from Dallas. It's on the west side of 360 and Green Oaks, if anyone knows that area. As for coffee shops, I haven't been much of a coffee drinker, so I can't really name off any good places.

To those who don't expect to make it: remember, you don't know everything, and you don't know everybody. (Quote from a good friend and spiritual advisor.) There's always possibilities.

To those who still aren't sure: I'll keep hope out that you can make it. I really want to see as many of you as possible this time around. It was a blast getting so many of you together, seeing real faces to go with the names.

To those coming: see you there!

Well there isn't a hope in the proverbial of me ever making it to an A-kon (unless someone figures out how to do one of those Star Trek matter transporters) but I hope all of yous who do manage to get there, have a great time.

I've never heard of spades. Maybe it's just another name of a game I know how to play. My favorite game of cards is called "13". Very hard to learn, but quick and easy to play.

I'm going to try and get there on Thursday so I can find a parking spot.


As for coffee....I'm not much of a coffee drinker. We could meet up for lunch/dinner instead.
