Home From GenCon

[filkertom]

Fantastic time. I'll tell you all about Days 3 and 4 later. Right now, I need some sleep.

P.S.: If you heard anything on the news about a nasty pick-up truck/jackknifed semi accident on Northbound I-69 about 30 miles north of Fort Wayne... I wasn't involved. But it did happen about a half-mile in front of me, and I got within less than a quarter-mile. Basically, the pick-up, which was full of pallet, caught on fire, which freaked out the semi driver. Huge puff of black smoke, and then more smoke and flames all over the highway. Pallets all over, too. About a dozen emergency vehicles. And then it started raining. Hard. Very impressive, though -- they got the injured out of there and cleared a lane within 45 minutes.

ETA: acelightning points out that the correct spelling is pallet, not palette, unless it was for a really really big painting.

Holy shit. I'm so glad you are okay.

good to know you're ok. Go, rest, and be ready for a warm reception in the Windy City in November! :)

I'm glad you're safe.

Three cheers for the emergency crews who responded to the accident!

It was good to see you, even if it was two very brief moments. :-) Glad you are home safe...

ah, the obligatory tractor trailer accident on the Gen Con run.

For us, it was usually on the PA tpke.

I'm glad you weren't involved.

Hey there! "Clarissa" here. Just wanted to say that I (and all the members of WW) had a great time with you. Hopefully we can be booth-mates next year! Hail Great Cthulu! ;)

Ia! Ia! Hail Great Cthulhu!

Ladies and gentlemen, my vote for the sexiest of Willie's Wenches (http://www.willieswenches.com) (although, honestly, it's like picking your favorite chocolate). Smart, funny, great smile, great attitude, and killer in a corset. Hugs to all of 'em, including the lucky, lucky Bostwick.

And, yes, m'dear, next year would indeed be fantastic. Seriously, work on getting a DVD. You'll sell 'em hand over fist. And some teaser vid on YouTube.

Oh, you! Wench hugs right back atcha. We've talked about DVDs and CDs, and since Bostwick and I do most of the writing for the group (and usually have about 20 different creative irons in the fire at any given time) we'll probably have something along those lines ready by next year's GenCon. I posted my Katy Perry Parody ("I Kissed a Nerd") on amiright.com and got a positive response, so here's to more gamer-friendly humor! And a hilarious music video. ;)
