Conspiracy?
Ok, I haven’t done a rant in a while, but now I have a reason. Doctors. I rant against the medical industry in general, and mainly because it IS an industry. A fatly profitable one. I didn’t tell people this, because I was really scared, and I didn’t want others questioning me when I didn’t…

Happy Father’s Day
Just a break from the busy busy and the madness of the world to wish a happy weekend to all the Dads out there. Now and forever are you heroes, role models, idols! Have some barbecue, some steak, some beer!

The Outcome?
Wet. Really wet. And cold. It started out good. Ok, it was damp, and slightly rainy, but there were still lots of people. And the cutest doggies and kitties! Then the downpours began. Not only outside, but inside. I know at something like this the event planners can’t be responsible for the weather. But really,…

Next Stop: Glenville
Paws Along the Mohawk Spring Fling! I don’t know, I did this on a whim. I love animals, and I think these guys sponsor adoptions. They are certainly animal friendly, and I’m all about that, so I said, what the heck, they wanted “different” vendors. I’m different, right? It’s a great cause. So, I’ll be…

Albany in the Bag
Another great Con! Okay, wasn’t too thrilled with the location; I truly feel I would have done better in with other vendors instead of out in the hallway, but still did well, and it was fun being across from the Mandalorian Mercs! I do believe they’re recruiting, too. The other complaint was the temps. Outside…

How Much Would You Pay?
Saw some beautiful work on FB tonight: Alice steampunk boots. The Australian-based company, Pendragon Shoes, makes all kinds of fantasy footwear. This is some beautiful stuff, and a lot more varied and creative than much of what you see at regional Ren Faires: Pendragon Shoes And the Alice boots in question? Beautiful, and clearly, at…

Just a Quickie
Happy Memorial Day. Devote a few minutes in silent remembrance of those who gave all. Share time with those you love. Time off from work is grand, and like unexpected cash: spend some of it on you, but spend most of it wisely. Get outside. Put the phone down. Eat some crap, eat something better…

A Smaller Rant
I hate the social media versions of chain letters, and I don’t pass them along, or post them to my wall. One sort of pissed me off the other day. It was about cancer, and there was a line in the middle of it that was something like “I know most of you don’t give…

Win at Syracuse
What an awesome Con! So worth the drive (not even 2.5 hours). It was absolutely packed. And if you’re a shopper, yes, there is a lot of the same, if you frequent Cons, but there was also some different stuff. Different artists, too. The Ghostbusters of Upstate NY are based out of here, and they’re…

Tomorrow….
Dress warm, it’s going to be chilly there. https://www.facebook.com/events/169285536759137/ http://www.syracusecomiccon.com/ The Batmobile (1966) and a cosplay contest with cash prizes! A slew of guests including contestants from seasons of Face Off! Video game contests! Trivia contests! A Deadpool dunk tank (that apparently depends on how cold it gets)! And lots of vendors, myself included! If…
