Reviews:
Joe reviewed a website 'you've been left behind.com' as it inspires
silly knockoffs
Chris reviewed a chibi Chris as chibi, then commented how he did coffee
shop hopping on Saturday, got donations to the Computer History Museum &
now over his bed is a picture with a unicorn, a pegasi & a rainbow that
Evelyn bought; he also reviewed 'Kung Fu Panda' as he should sue Jack
Black for stealing his dreams - worth full price; reviewed the 4-hour
version of Lynch's 'Dune' as the only way to watch it & reviewed flying
to Las Vegas for a Westercon meeting as the meeting was great and he
ended up on the positive side while gambling - plus best room key ever
I reviewed 'The Hulk' as it was really pretty good - until the film
broke halfway thru it
Dave C reviewed 'Robot Wars' as 'back' and called 'RoboGames' - that the
arena is improved and all the robots are back & was worth full price;
then Stellen follow-on'd with the comment that setting opponents on fire
was a perfectly valid tactic
Miko reviewed Pirate Fest as there was no shade and that sucked, but
there were a lot of folks dressed up like pirates & recommends sticking
to Ren Faires; then there were follow-on's - aaaarrrgh
we then did auctions: a book & stuff for $0.25; a book & stuff for
$1.50; a book for $5.00, a bag for $0.25 & Venture Brothers 1 & 2 for $50.00
We adjourned at = 9:21
And the rumor of the week was: '3 dollars and a unicorn for Chris'
