Anyway, this weekends travel (and I was NOT going very far away after the LAPC, etc. the last several weekends.) was to Wondercon! (the San Fran version of Comicon) where piggy and I gawked at the Cos-players (folks in costume) met some legends and heroes and saw some generally fun stuff. Mainly, its all pretext to show you some photos!
Speaking of which, be sure and go to your right for the pictures on Flickr of the LAPC 10k Main Event, 10k Heads Up Event, 10k HORSE event and some smaller events including a 5k NLHE, 5k PLO w/rebuys and some of the smaller NLHE events.
Awesome this statue was.
You might know him as the Giant Mute from Superman 2.
JAWS!!
Not one of THOSE Baldwins, but that is why he's in all the good shows.
Greg "The Hammer" or "Spagetthi Head" as he was called by the Waldo Brothers.
Well he's the Honkey Tonk Man. And he likes Clamato.
Cobra Commander and The Baroness from GI Joe.
Lady "Sweeny Todd"
I fanboyed up pretty hard here, this is one of my MOST favorite artists and he can be yours two, Phil Foglio of GirlGenius.net and many, many other awesome projects.
Blade let himself go, but he's still badass.
Marie and her favorite super heroe -- Wonder Woman! (sing it!!)
And I am not making this up "Jedi Professors Holms and Watson, Private Investigators."
The Fairy Godmothers Redux.
The Changling Bounty Hunter from Starwars.
Nintendo's Paid Cosplayers.
Street Fighter 4. 15 years after the last great arcade standup...its back.
This is a very telling picture you see. I felt like a little kid here, I would have been dressed as Indy and the Darth/Storm Trooper Combo would have been awesome. Also, kid looks like my brother Charles.
