Looking forward to hearing about this one.
Glad to hear your safe at home, was it slick as Bacon on the way …
Hardly hit?
Ditto that, Kate. Yikes.
Although it might have made an interesting picture!
Glad you’re back. I was getting bored with productivity.
Who cares about you. What we want to know is if John Scalvi made it home allright.
Dear Mr. Scalvi:
Regarding our recent encounter on I-75 south of Toledo…
The day I come home from confusion will be quite a relief, I can tell you.
Yes, but how did TempCat do in your absence?
Harvey,
The BLF has its eye on you.
Hardly hit anyone? WITH the car or IN the car. I can’t decide which I think is more dangerous to Mr. Scalvi . . .
Another comment from the “little bit pregnant” genre. I look forward to hearing the story behind that one…
“…hardly anyone…”
Yeh, but according to the rules of Street Pinball, if your only hit is a nun in a wheelchair being pushed by a blind Boy Scout, it’s worth 10,000 points!
Were there any notes on YOUR pillow?
Did you softly hit anyone?
Reminds me of a line cut from my novel: …he’d been in the cave many times, without once getting killed.”
I hope the person you hardly hit has never once been killed.
First drunk says to second drunk “I think we’re gettin’ closer to town.”
Second drunk says “Why do you think that?”
First drunk “Because we’re hittn’ more people.”
Once again, I have shown amazing talent at being at a convention (for the FULL weekend, mind you) at which John Scalzi is a guest and never actually speaking to him. This would be number 5, I believe. It just somehow doesn’t work out. I have no idea how I manage it. It’s a talent, I guess. *bow* I did manage to get good pictures, and even video of the Toastmaster. Yes, John, I will send them to you as soon as I figure out how to move data from camera to PC. :)
Ha! At least got to say hello. From one person with a ‘z’ in his last name to another:
‘v’ just doesn’t cut it.
Salome:
you do realize that after THREE
Salome,
you do realize that after only THREE times, it becomes a fannish tradition?
You are now obligated by Ghu to insure that whenever you are at a convention where Scalzi is present, you must do everything in your power to NOT meet him…
Fortunately, the same does not apply to John Scalvi
And when do we get to see pictures?
Nathan,

Bacon has eyes?????????
OMG…. BACON HAS AN EYE……
First a cat…. NOW an eye…..What’s next!!!!!!
AROMA…!!!!
