January 4th Approacheth!Well, folks. Today you are in for a treat! I have found myself an online dialect translator so this post will be featured in three different 'languages': Englishie, Scottie and (in random honour of Kevin Whately) Geordie!

I hope you all are having a fine christmas week. Well, I don't know about all of you all, but I'm actually quite keen about this upcoming January. Why, you ask? Well, just take a look at this:

As you all know, our dear beloved CMO is making an 'I'm-not-dead-yet' appearance in the this season's next episode, 'Be All My Sins Remember'd' on the fourth of January. I big shout out to Joe M. and Martie G. for being just plain awesome, too! *whoo* The mates and I will be celebrating like if a Sam Neill-David Thewlis-Ian Hart movie was made and I'll be putting up that story as it unfolds.

Today was actually quite an interesting day. My mate and I went to the shops and did a bit of christmas shopping. A couple days ago, she gave me this little green dinosaur in the bookstore. I happened to be standing next to the mystery dvd shelves, so I pulled out the 'Inspector Lewis' dvd (they don't have any of 'Inspector Morse', the uncultured swine that is Barnes & Noble) and, taking a picture with my new camera (I sadly dropped my old one...*sob*) and took a picture with the dinosaur next to Lewis's (Whately's) face. Of course, I had to call the dinosaur after him and decided to make him do a Flat Stanley-Knome impression. Take a look:

Hey everyone. I was thinking recently about the dire lack of Sci Fi conventions in Texas and decided to do a preliminary exercise to see how many people would be interested in the possibility of having a Sci Fi convention in Austin, Texas. I've always found it strange that the live music capital of the world where the Austin Film Festival as well as SXSW are held, does not have a Sci Fi convention. There was an anime convention for all of five years, but we can see how that went. If anything a SFC could piggyback onto SXSW as a venue.

Therefore, I've decided to look into this idea and see what's possible. We have a group on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5229057010&ref=mf

I like how the url's quite easy to remember, so get on that ;D.
