Guest list subject to change

Wizard World Chicago

Sounds like fun. I'll be skipping this year, though, since it falls inbetween San Diego and Dragon*Con and I'm already committed to those.

I'll be there. Having relatives in Chicago has always been an excellent excuse to go.

That's a great hotel if you wanna run out on a bill.

...or pee in the parking garage.

There be a lot of CrossGen people on that list. That's cool.

Two years ago Mark Alessi(and a woman I'm guessing was his wife) stayed in the hotel room next to mine. Nice guy, actually. I pretended not to know who he was.

Hey guys, just so you know, that's the original list I posted on the old boards. I don't know if things have changed on it or not, but if anyone has the time, feel free to check and post an updated list, if needed. I just don't have the time to keep up with this thread right now. But I'm doing everything I can to make it this year, so unless something happens, I'll be there my usual Saturday.

When will we get the offical guest list?

*groans* who let them out of their cages?

Are you kidding?

This is our cage!!!

Boing!

Will there be clean port-a pottys on every level of the garage? Ten bucks a shot I think we should expect clean port-a-pottys!

Besides...I may get an urge...

are the wife and kids going LLance??

Yes theory9 and Silver Amidillo,allan1 & rufie will be there.

Hahhaha...

Do we have a guest list for the con yet?

Sadly, I will not be there. I would really enjoy running around and causing havoc with you guys. Oh, well. If you see a tall guy with glasses named Scott Parker, pimping an indie comic with a couple of other guys, tell him "Grimm says you're a poopiehead."

Will do...

Will don't.

What you talkin bout Willis?

Just use your Depends as usual.

*groan* will no one save me from them?

LLANCE WILL!

Only if he has his DD shirt on...

Thats what I'm sayin!
