Awwwh sucks. I was just in Philly last night. Going home, near State College
and watch Penn State beat Michigan State this weekend. I'm in Harrisburg.
Never been to any cons. Almost went to roleplaying one five years ago. Was
with crazy group and they ran events at a couple but four months before it
happened I knew a conflict was going to pop up. I told them I would go and
help if I had the weekend free but couldn't give an solid reply.
I'm going to try for the world con thing, that's in philly next august
right?
Have fun. Kevin
