+kini_ont Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Got home tonight from a three day training/study session, when I went to the mail. I retrived an envelope from drneal (very professional looking like a bill) so my first thought was "What the ... " (forgot all about you sending consolation prizes) I got the best laugh after opening it, may have to wear it when I return in a week's time for more training. Thanks drneal. Quote Link to comment
+EdrickV Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) who else has gone to a scifi geek convention? ILYK Gaming conventions, Star Trek conventions, Comic conventions, Anime conventions, R/C Airplane events, and Renaissance Festivals, I've been there and done that. I believe I even went to a computer software swap meet once upon a time and bought a relatively cheap C++ compiler there. (Borland C++ 4.0, which was a little out of date at the time.) Edit: I'm so geeky/nerdy I remember what "Win32s" is. Edited August 19, 2011 by EdrickV Quote Link to comment

We've gone to several comic book conventions... and had our picture taken with star trek folks at a show on our honeymoon at the Kennedy Space Center. Quote Link to comment
+SgtMikal Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 who else has gone to a scifi geek convention? ILYK I went to Horrorfind in Gettysburg last year. Is that what you mean? Quote Link to comment
+gardengorilla Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 who else has gone to a scifi geek convention? ILYK I haven't been to a convention BUT we live really close to a small town...Vulcan Alberta. I did do a puzzle cache there in the Vulcan language AND I stopped in at the star base or whatever it's called. There is a Wherigo there as well. Not too far from this town is another smaller town called Ensign. Quote Link to comment
+DresselDragons Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 who else has gone to a scifi geek convention? ILYK We have, but, luckily, have no photographic evidence. Last year, Brenda went to a Japanese Anime convention...that seemed way more "out there" than the scifi convention we went to...and that comment comes just from viewing folks in the lobby.
