Well, I just got home from Comic-Con 2004, and it was a blast as always. This year we added a new person to the group (Robert) and it just made it that much better. The trip did have some snags, but it was still alot of fun. We got a free room at an expensive condo, there turned out to be some problems, but the Free condo was still nice. We had a great view from the tenth floor. On one side we were looking out over the San Deigo Airport, out the middle was the Harbor, and to the left was the pool on the roof of the eigth story.

The convention itself is getting huge. The dealer floor was over 460,000 square feet ! And they added a new room for the panels which seats 6000 people. The convention itself is very inexpensive, but I spent way to much on the dealer floor. I got 5 new pieces of Art from Ruth Thompson, 2 Games from Steve Jackson Games, along with many smaller items and some other pieces of art.

We also got to see some movie trailers for things that are still in production and that won't be released to the public for a while. Some, like the trailer for Anaconda were not even color balanced or anything yet, so you get just raw footage.


Well, I guess that is it for Comic con for now, maybe more info in a day or two.

On a different note, I still have not found a photo hosting site that i like, but I do have some stuff up on a site designed for camera phones. You can check it out at http://cmphotography.textamerica.com/

Ok, I know, I keep saying that there will be an update soon, and they never come. So here is an update, it will not be much, but hopefully it will get me back thinking about the blog and making posts again. Since the last post a lot of stuff has happened, so I will quickly get you up to speed.

I was FINALY able to buy a truck about 2 months ago. It was not exactly what I was looking for, it is much nicer. I got a White 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 QuadCab with the Hemi. It is fully loaded with the tow package, so it can handle the boat no problem. As for the boat, when I started getting it ready for the summer, it would not start. After some trouble shooting with Twink and Jeremy, we found that the flywheel magically broke over the winter. So, the motor is ready to be pulled, and will hopefully be taken out on Wednesday.

Not long after I got the truck, it was broken into, no damage to the truck luckily, but they did get a couple thousand dollars worth of camera equipment. Since insurance is taking for ever, I have not been able to go out on any news stories since then. Hopefully I will have a camera again soon and be able to go have some more fun.

Well, that is it for now
