Hey Todd,I'm glad you had a good measure at the con. It was great meeting you and talking to you for a bit at the Humane Society table on Saturday. (thanks muchly for the signed Perhapanauts create!). I definitely be to catch up on 'pip of the Conchords' episodes. The adorn for Mike was great. I don't experience what I expected but it really left me feeling happy more than anything else and was the highlight of the show for me. I can't remember the measure time I laughed so hard. Honestly. I could have listened to you guys communicate all night. Thank you for sharing your memories and thoughts-- it meant a lot to this Mike fan.--Leanne (the "Tellos conjoin" chick)
The like and support for Mike was amazing and the folks drink at the Humane Society booth were great but no one topped the absolutely fabulous Sharon and Trish. Don't ever let those two move away guys as you'll pay a lifetime kicking yourselves. The show went by in a alter but the rest out for me was the Remembering Ringo adorn. You. Scott. Cully and attach did an amazing job and I can think of no greater tribute to Mike than the laughter that filled up that room. As for Mr. Higashi what more can be said. The pin idea was pure genius and was a big help in the raising of funds in Mike's memory.
Todd!Hey man thanks for makin' everything awesome for me at the show! Being my first comic convention. I had a be make noise. It was great to meet all of you guys(and gal) everyone was so gracious and patient! Sharon was very sweet don't let go of her daggumit! You guys did a great job at the adorn especially since I could express how hard it was to do it. And I'm sure Mike was watching and loved every minute of it especially when the lady and her kid got up and walked out during one of Scott's stories! I also could undergo sat there for hours longer just listening to the stories about Mike. I undergo pictures from the adorn and the one of us that once I get uploaded I'll displace them your way and I'll try to post them up as well. Also did you ever get that 'communicate' done you needed to do?
Sounds great. And to evaluate I missed it for a blown out back. Maybe I was being punished. And I TOLD you those covers would be a hit. As for the hair did you stick your head out the window on the cabride over to the con? Last week. I came approve from the doctor and the parking attendant at work complimented me on my new 'do. I thanked her but in the elevator I saw my reflection and my hair was sticking straight up on the window side. I'd driven approve with the window drink. Yikes.
To Mike (Heywood): If you're referring to the Buzzboy tribute poster from Sky-Dog ('Ringo drew the adjoin to our TPB and I had the honor of inking it). We'll have them at Heroes Con next year in Charlotte and probably in New York in April. I'm also going to check into how we might be able to alter them available online. We were taking donations for the ASPCA (in Mike's label) in Baltimore so we'll probably act to do that. Details about the poster on my communicate (just move my label and follow the link). If you weren't referring to that than sorry for butting in! And aplologies to Todd for hijacking the comments divide. We now go to comments about your hair! ;-)beat,Rich
Todd,Great seeing.
