Dragoncon Plus One

| 2 Comments

Okay I 'm back from DragonCon. I have stories, quotes, pictures, links and much more to talk about. I'm sure Ninsi and Phlome will have the own reports as well. I'll try and get it all organized and and start putting stuff up later today.

Here's some quotes from the weekend. I need to get these in before I forget more of them. There are quite a few good ones I've forgotten already.

"Is that real?" "Yes, it's a real live Marmot."
"Hey Baby, My Dragon likes your Dragon." (Think Dragonriders of Pern.)
"Did you ask me if I had room in my suitcase for a fruitcake and boots?"

Random funny questions from the Babylon 5 panel:

Fan: " Who would win in a fight between Marcus and Darth Maul?"
Jason Carter (Marcus) : "Well since I am an ACTOR and Ray Park (Darth Maul) is an actual martial artist, he might have a slight advantage."

Fan: " What question have you never been asked but would like to be?"
Jason Carter: "So what you are saying is that you don't have a question and you want me to make one up for myself."


From the Firefly panel:

Fan to Adam Baldwin: " How do you deal with being more famous than the other actors but not the Main Character of the show?"
Adam Baldwin: " I'm not the main character?"

Fan: "It's my birthday, could you sing the Firefly theme to me?"
Adam Baldwin: "Can't we just sing you happy birthday?"
(They did end up singing the first few lines of the song.)

Reading

I just finshed Codelia's Honor by Lois McMaster Bujold which is the first book of the Vorkosigan Saga.
Very good book, but the Sci-Fi bits are really secondary to the story.

Right now I'm reading The Lost Fleet Series by John Hemry/Jack Campbell It's sorta Honor Harrington but not really, though Honor Harrington even goes downhill in the later novels.
