Comic 636 – “Communication Error”
Errol: Debs and I haven’t argued that much in a while, actually. Maybe it’s because she’s gone. 😀 Poor Debs, this is a good way for her to recharge.
Whitless: Listening to this argument was pretty fun, actually. Most of it was just the shock that they had been announced as guests so quickly. Debs kept insisting Errol said yes, Errol kept insisting he said wait. Good time to be a fly on the wall for that one.
I hope you both really enjoy Orycon! This will be my 11th year attending, and I’ve always found it a lot of fun. If you’re interested in what to expect, http://www.osfci.org/orycon/, has the links to a bunch of previous Orycons – along with the event schedules.
WHOA! That’s a lot of cons! *laugh* Actually, do you have any links to people who have blogged about the con?
We honestly have no idea what it will be like. We’re new to the whole con business. 😀
Here are a few reports I was able to find online. I wasn’t able to go through them that closely, but hopefully they can be a little helpful. Also, I’d be happy to try and answer any questions you or Debs have either here or through email. I’m not an expert or anything, but I do love to babble…I mean chat intelligently…about conventions 😀
