Hello from the mile-long line at hall h @ comic-con!

Waiting in line for the green lantern panel at comic con. I got here three hours early (don't worry, i get paid by the hour) and brought a collapsable chair (this isn't my first rodeo) and am just chillin in the cool san diego weather right now. I've got pearl jam's "binaural" on the headphones...

The con has been good so far. Stressful at times, too. We've got our biggest crew ever reporting on the con this year, a staff of 34, and i'm the point man all weekend. But the traffic at cbr has been phenomenal, we're just killing it, so it's been a fruitful effort thus far.

Highlights from hall h have been will ferrell cracking me up (he was quoting anchorman!), "the other guys" and the movie "skyline"... Lowlights are "super" with rainn wilson and "green hornet" with seth rogen.

Ok, all for now... I'll have a full report in my next zine.

I write like....

Have you ever wondered how your writing style stacks up against the great authors of history? Is your prose style comparable to Tolstoy? Or perhaps Dr. Suess, rather? (based on the syntax of that last sentence, you'd think I was on par with the guy that wrote W's speeches). Well, you can wonder no longer. Thanks to this website, you can post a bit of your wrtiting and it will tell you which famous author your writing most resembles. I posted a few pieces from my blog and it categorically compared me to Stephen King. Try it out for yourself sometime.

Stop Bullying - You Can Help

I know this sounds a little too Sally Struthers, but there's a worthwhile program that's in the running for $50K worth of funding from Pepsi that would run in Lawrence. You can vote every day between now and the end of July, though it requires a registration at the site. I haven't gotten one email from them, so I think it's altruistic message is really true.

Anyway, all it costs is a couple of minutes to click and register and it's a worthy program. Help if you can. Bullying is a rotten thing and these kids want to do something about it.
