Inquries (not all of which are moot):
--How the fuck is it Monday again already?
--How is it that I've never even HEARD of Standard and Poore's until a week ago, even though apparently the very survival of our country depends on their opinion of us?
--True Blood. Fuck you. Not really a question, unless it's "How could you?"
--Why did anyone, anywhere pay to see The Smurfs movie?
--Follow up: How can I find them and smack them?
--Anybody see the new Planet of the Apes? How was it?
--Should I spend $150 or so to do the first ever Flint Horror Con? (bearing in mind that I ALWAYS lose money on these things)
--When can I quit this terribly intrusive and annoying day-job?
--Why won't my insurance company and/or local hospital tell me how much my various needed procedures will cost? Are they TRYING to bankrupt my ass?
--WTF???
--Why is American Idol still on the air? Do any of these people actually become American Idols?
--When does Harry Potter 7.2 come out on DVD? This Russian bootleg is only gonna hold me over for so long. ;-]

Not only is the survival of our economy up to the whims of S&P, but they're culpable in the 2008 metldown for rating securities that were really junk as AAA. Crazy shit.

Decent, but they left out some plot points that the original had and I got glimpses of other movies in there. Most notable at the end, there was a serious reference to 12 Monkeys.
Oh, and Draco Malfoy is in it.

#6: Any chance you could get designated a special guest and thus be relieved of some fees or even have some of your expenses paid for?

It's only about $30 for the table at the con. The cost is the buying of books, printing of swag, etc. Plus I have to find an assistant/driver *makes goo goo eyes at you* and pay for gas. So it's always a bit of an investment. Plus it looks like the biggest name they have lined up thusfar is Wolfman Mac.

Which is one of a very small numbers of ways where I honestly think ignorance is bliss.
