Jim and Shannon at MarsCon in Williamsburg, VA - 1/14-16/2011
« on: November 07, 2010, 09:06:08 PM »
Jim and Shannon will be Guests of Honor at MarsCon 2011, January 14-16th in Williamsburg, VA.

http://www.marscon.net/

Check out Jim and Shannon's Schedule!


The fan dinner will be Saturday night at 5:30 at Sal's.  RSVPs are closed.  Of course, as this is a public restaurant, folks are welcome to come and eat at the same time as us, but I won't be responsible for ensuring they have a reservation.

We will be congregating in the front lobby around 4:45 Saturday evening so we can determine who needs a ride to Sal's and who has extra room.  Then we'll start caravanning over.

Sal's accommodates 300 people, so if you didn't RSVP, they should have no problem seating you.

1-2:  Jim and Shannon Butcher
3-9:  MarsCon staffers: Chairman Carolyn and Rich, Bob Snare, Kathryn, Jennifer Sekula, Kyle Rice, Erika Gleeson

You realize that I am going to hold you to this, don't you?  You've said it, you're committed.  :D

Sue and I are booking a room and getting con tickets now. How we're getting there has yet to be settled. 'Cellie, I'm getting a psychic vibe... *holds index fingers to temples* you will be... yes, it's getting clearer to me now... you will be coughing and weak on the day before. It's true; I saw it through the eyes of your boss.

No, just taking the hit on my credit card. I've been trying to get the thing paid off, but this is in a good cause.

Room's booked, moving to con tix.

The fact you /can/ go makes you lucky in my book, I can't even the opportunity to shell out the cash and I want to go bad...

Room and tickets done. Now deciding what to do to get there. Thinking driving, cause I have no issues with an 8hour drive.

Note I said "credit card". It's for emergencies. This qualifies. :D

I would too, but Sue gets a bit freaked out if she's in a car for more than 4 hours.

I am totally going to try and come meet you all at the airport, but I'm not sure 1) how I'm going to get down there, and 2) logistics.  I'll do my darndest, though.

Why apply for a personal day? After all, you're going to be "sick". ;D
