Of course, we had brought a car...

Don't tell them that! I'm trying to encourage them to go.

Besides, a quick look at Google Maps will show how insanely far away El Cajon is from the Convention Center.

Seriously, don't stay in El Cajon unless you've got a car.

Looks like I'll be there after all. I was able to count up enough pennies to make the trip. But I'll be staying at a hotel in Escondido (no biggie--I lived there when I was quite young).

Jerry Beck will hold his hilarious Worst Cartoons Ever Festival at the con Friday night at 9 PM, Rooms 6BCDF.

Yup, and Government Man and I are bringing our DVD copies of the first and second shows for those who want to catch up before attending the new show.

Ccook50 · 06-29-2007, 02:42 PM

I have the DVDs of the 2005 and 2006 shows. They hurt so good.

Sparky · 06-29-2007, 02:50 PM

Poor Jerry.

The 2006 show was better IMHO. And everyone on the shuttle back to the parking lot after the show last year was singing odes to Tip-Top Titan.

So anyways I'm sure we'll see you there...ORD and I won't be hard to spot, lol. And on Preview Night look for the group in No-No shirts.

Nice, I'll be there for that one for sure.

He just added the tip I sent him about the parking lot scam artists. It's at the very very bottom. Glad I could contribute.

Around what time do the Comic-Con schedules really start filling out? I'm waiting for more details before deciding which day(s) I would like to register myself for.

Sparky · 07-05-2007, 11:25 PM

Government Man told me he read somewhere on the site that the schedule is generally posted about 2 weeks before the Con starts.
