If we wanted to rotate in line, or just hang out and relax after 3 hours of running around, we could get in line at 12:50, and all get something signed by him.
I wouldn't mind doing a rotating wait-in-line to score a signature & a photo with him. Honestly, that might seem to be the best move. I think we did something similar for NYCC08 when Garth Ennis was signing. I think Stocky & I waited in line while the rest walked the grounds. I'm gonna grab Lee's shitty: Just Imagine: Stan Lee presents Wonder Woman for him to sign. However, I suspect we may need to get in line a well before 12:50 to guarantee we can see him & get something signed by him. It's Stan Lee after all & I imagine the line for him will be freakin huge.
Also, I would like to do the Friday morning stalking & shopping thing with the other guys.
Stan Lee
Katee Sackhoff
Bruce Campbell
Robert Kirkman
Another person I really want to meet is Kevin Conroy (voice of Batman from all the animated Series). If I ever hear that Kevin Conroy is doing a signing or public appearance, I am going to move mountains to get there.
I've heard of some of those places but the two places I know of that sell really great burgers are right in the Flat Iron district. One is a burger place in Madison Square Park called the Shake Shack and the other is a place on 7th ave & 26th street called BRGR. Both sell amazing burgers from what I'm told.

Up for 12:50 at the line - hopefully right near the start. I haven't got anything for him to sign though.

We can find something.
Grab a Marvel Milestones issue.
I am sure a lot of exhibtors will have the same idea, they did in Toronto, but if the doors do not open till 1, we should be fine hopping in live at quarter to one. We can always just keep walking by and looking.

I still want one, I just don't know how I feel about it. I would feel differently if it were a piece of memorabilia w/ his signature on it but a photo? hmmmm
I got my ticket already, along with my copy of "If Chins Could Kill" to be signed.
I torrent Burn Notice, so I have no problem paying him $40 for an autograph. I figure it's the least I can do when I love the show so much and he gets no money from me for it. Same with some of his movies.
I am actually very okay with paying $40 because of this.

Me and Arn should arrive at 16:30. We should be there before you. Mitch and Natascha will, however, be there before all of us.
Not sure what the deal is, but skimming the B&B agreement, it looks like, if Mitch gets there first, he can pick up all the keys at the Doma Cafe, while the rest of us can just go straight to 31 Jones Street... alternatively, if Mitch and Natascha aren't going to be in when we all arive, they should just pick up their keys and we all go to Doma Cafe when we arrive.
We can still sort this out with text messages tomorrow.

Except I don't think I can text any of you. = /

Final weather update: it will be raining tomorrow evening, however, Thursday - Monday will be high 60s with clouds. This is subject to change because mother nature is known for her violent mood swings. Again, as a precaution and because you'll likely need it, pack a light jacket. Umbrella's are easy enough score anywhere on the cheap so I wouldn't worry about them.
I will be in the city pretty much all day tomorrow so whenever people have arrived & have settled in and want to hang out, call and/or text me.
Looking forward to seeing you bitches tomorrow (if you're up for it).
