Well it was that time of year again. I joined the largest group of Geeks, nerds, and virgins for the largest gathering of geeky stuff in the country. There were many guests, most of them nerdy:
Start off with my favourite, and for Brian as well. Ms Summer Glau aka the future Mrs. Gil
. She plays in the Terminator TV series (I've never actually seen it), and played in the cancelled series, Firefly.
After I received my autograph from her, I shook her hand. She commented on "that I have a big hand." Yeah I really had to bite my tongue on that one!
She looks so tall in FIREFLY, but she's really small.
Mr. Ernest Borgnine
Micheal Dorn, aka Mr Worf from Star Trek. I asked him if he still had his Sabre Jet. He says he sold it, but now wants to get back into military flying. He is now looking for another Sabre. MAKE UP YOU MIND, MAN!!!
Peter Mayhew, AKA CHEWBACCA. It think from Battlestar Galactica or something like that
The most decent shot I could get of ADAM WEST, as we weren't allowed to take pictures of him
The only decent shot I could get of JULIE NEWMAR, aka CATWOMAN from the original BATMAN. She ain't aging gracefully, is she?
The original BATMOBILE
You guys can't fool me. You're already humming the original BATMAN theme. You geeks!
Not a bad ANDORIAN (Although one can always hope!
)
A KLINGON
And finally the man himself, WILL I AM SHATNER, aka Luke Skywalker. Only $80 an autograph. And several thousand people lining up to get one (including one good looking CHICKENWINGS member
). He must just be thinking "GET A LIFE! CHA-CHING$$$!!!"
So that's my trip to Geekland. Next year, we'll see.
