Oh my God Biscie, that is brilliant!!!!
Don't know about you guys but I'm not doing too good right. Bad headache, feeling really tired, body muscles aching. I just had to take a four-hour nap after Malorie left for work.
Glad I'm off work until next Monday.

Also, not doing too bad here, but I did have a 13-hour sleep not too long ago. Work tomorrow will suck, though.

Yeah, me too. I think it's the flu.

It does not surprise me.

Love the image Bisc!

... also, I have a number of bumps on my body, as if I've been bitten by insects. I was scratching on the plane ride home and still feel itchy.

Great image Biscuit. I'm sure when the movie is released it will break box office records.

In other news, sorry I haven't uploaded photos onto facebook, been really busy at work and way too tired. I should have time this upcoming weekend to upload them all.

As for some thing where Wally wasn't around:

On Thursday when the four of us (Arn, Cam, Andy and me) were at the CBLFD, Arn mentioned he saw C.B. Cebulski around, to which I stated his Black Widow mini-series were pretty good. Arn looked somewhat confused and said he hadn't written any. Quickly, this came to a bet and Arn went of to ask Cebulski about this. He mentioned to ask Cebulksi the question in the bathroom. Alas, I was wrong. Twas Sienkiewicz I was thinking about (long name is a long name...).

On the plus side, this reminded me of said mini-series and I got them both at the Con. In hindsight, I should've let Cebulski sign them (since Sienkiewicz wasn't around, even though he was supposed to).

On the same very night, some dude got something out of his bag and I think it was Arn who asked if it was a lightsaber handle. It wasn't, it was a Dr. Who prop. At which moment I started fuming about how sick I get of that show, given how it takes up half the space in the SFX magazine. Arn could've been a bit quicker with telling me that the guy is the writer of the Dr. Who comic...


I'll leave the story of Arn cock-blocking Cam up to one of the participants of that particular story...

Hahah! You went off on the writer of the Dr. Who comic about the series? That's hilarious! Embarrassing, I'm sure, but still pretty funny!

To be fair, I fumed about the amounts of pages that series takes up in SFX, but whether he got that detail...

Also, not quite as embarrassing as first asking Arn if Steve Empting did Gambit & the X-Ternals during the AoA (Yes, I think he did, was the answer) and then later ask it to Epting himself. Who promptly denies such a thing and says he thinks he might've done the X-Factor issues. Cue Arn, who magically appears. I ask him if he didn't just say Epting did Gambit during AoA and his reply is: "No, he did X-Factor!"

So, I was eating Garlic Fries and a Clubhouse at the CBLDF party and a pretty girl walsk up and asks me what smells so good. I ask if she smalled garlic, and she said yes.

I said it was the garlic fries.

At this point Arn leans across the table and screams "DO YOU LIKE COMIC BOOKS?!"

At this point me and the girl looked at each other awkwardly and she just left. So uncomfortable.

Arn then tells us we are at a comic book party, and she should like comic books.

M- That would probably be more embarrassing, I'll admit. Seems like the Database is more reliable when he's near the creator himself these days.

Wolf- Oh holy crap...I can see him doing that! That's hilarious!!! Please tell me this wasn't his only encounter like this for the weekend??

It was the worst for that. Although, we proceeded to yell DO YOU LIKE COMIC BOOKS at each other all weekend.

It's probably worth mentioning that Arn reaches his 'comedy peak' after a couple of beers and sustains this very entertaining level throughout the rest of his drinks. :)

Oh yes. Arn had had atleast two beers by the time of the infamous, "DO YOU LIKE COMIC BOOKS?!"

I think it was on Sunday, when we started doing an impersonation we all became fond of doing. I think you're all a little aware of it, since the name 'Maleev' has come up on status updates and photo comments on Facebook.

On the previous evening Arn explained to a number of us how rudely Alex Maleev had handed back his sketchbook after reluctantly providing a free sketch. I can't remember what story persuaded Arn to tell us his Maleev story (probably one on another rude guest), but, the actions Arn performed to demonstrate Maleev's breath-taking rudeness, combined with the explanation; had me laughing out loud. This then prompted another(!) story of Maleev's inexplicable rudeness, this time from Cam. I then started to joke that Maleev must go through life rewarding every word or action from someone with, what must be, customary rudeness on his part. Then we all had a go at doing our best Maleev impressions in various scenarios.

Arn, Cam, the stage is set for you both to tell your Maleev stories. :)
