Sorry chumps, but this mofo's going to a SciFi convention this weekend and y'all aren't. That's right. Arisia 05, here in the cradle of liberty. The weekend promises to be magnificent, needless to say. I will be attending fascinating talks on intrepid new topics ranging from the staying power of Klingon culture to the devastating effects of sleep apnea, from the reemergence of the piratical swashbuckler, to some woman who has 200 hats and just wants to talk about them. LARPs will be running around the clock, as will games of Illuminati and nerd orgies set to They Might Be Giants tunes. Filk songs will bound through the hallways, candies bars will be hastily consumed. Audio visual activities will include airings of Howard the Duck, Shaolin Soccer, the Fifth Element and more Star Trek than you can shake a stick at. And for those who are interested and would like to share in the experience, I'm willing to MUD with anybody who wants to at any time this weekend by way of my sweet new iBook which I will be flossing proudly amongst the nerd herds. Give me a time and an IP address and I'll see you there. diku- or aberMUDs only, please. None of this graphical bullshit.
Peace, chumps. And may the force be with you.
