Post Convention Depression.

September 24, 2007

 I attended Mountain-Con over the weekend in Salt Lake City. For the first time ever, I was at a convention without a MonsterhedZ booth. This allowed me to relax and enjoy the con more than I normally would. It was a celebrity-heavy convention; I met with Darth Vader (David Prowse), Harry Kim (Garrett Wang), and Leeta (Chase Masterson). I’ll post pics later in the day.

 I also had a chance to talk with my friend, online cartoonist Howard Tayler (www.schlockmercenary.com). Howard introduced me to Jake Black, writer for TMNT, Chaotic, and Smallville. I had a great conversation with Jake (Look for Supergirl in the next season of Smallville).

 As is the case at these events, I try to fit too much in and don’t have enough time to visit. There was a gentleman I met that worked in movie special effects with great tips for sculpting. For the life of me, I can’t remember his name.

 Pics will be up shortly.

Rare dryer fact.

September 21, 2007

Did you know that if you pump 220 volts of electricity through a dryer and the heating coil is touching the metal plate on the back, you can WELD the coil right to the plate, with all kinds of kick ass sparks and sizzles?
Everybody keep tabs on me, I’m goin’ for round two.
I’m fixing my dryer, btw.
