I have no idea, really... - July 9th, 2008
I should update my website more than I post here ;)

All indications are looking like the odds of me making it Saturday to Polaris after all went up from 50% to 75%. I'm looking forward to meeting up with folks who insist on passing along birthday regards, but it's on Friday and I'm trying to disavow getting older - I certainly don't feel it though :)
I already have my gift to myself for it (Colonial Marine costume and M41A Pulse Rifle), so a passing wave and a smile will be kinda nice instead.
Again to those who help out all year of for an hour, as a paying attendee I say thank you and good luck with the show. I know full well how (don't get me started) how thankless and rough it can be to be a volunteer and get used in ways you never signed on for (again don't get me started). My crew and I are looking forward to a good old geek-fest.
Cheers.
Caveat. Yes there will be people (as always) that I'd rather not talk with and probably likewise - if people make the minimal effort to not say or do (further) stupid things, I can certainly do the same and I think we will all have a great weekend. I'm going there to aid in ridding the colony of the alien infestation dammits (security insisted a repeat of it last year :)), and if I'm lucky there might be some juicy colonists' daughters I have to rescue from their virginity.
Ok, I've seen ALIENS TOO MANY TIMES NOW! :P

Does anyone here know if there's still going to /b/ another protest at the Church of $cientology sometime this month? I fail at google and other sources came up empty, however I thought that I read that there was something in the works for it Saturday.
I'm otherwise engaged that day but I know of a few other folks curious about it too.
Please pardon the randomness, I return you now to your normal LJ viewing :)
EDIT: I got some help from Toronto LJ, there is a protest planned on Saturday July 12, same time I'll be at Polaris with the AI folks.

Finally got the artwork all done for the costume and the first photos of it will be of its field test hopefully this weekend, keeping the finished product a surprise. Ironically considering the name of the dice roll (Snake-Eyes) I'll be bringing a GIJoe costume that isn't of our favourite commando-ninja :O
The painting wasn't the greatest, but I'm just happy I didn't screw up the camo paintjob. :D
