    You should try it hungover and under a skylight, there's a day I'll never forget.

    I'm down for a shirt if they're made.

    It is fun, I normally dread setting up at shows, they can get lonely. However, it seems everytime we set up at these we meet more and more Museum folks and the day just flies right by.....

    I'm sticking with my answer "Parkdale Meet". It's geeky and obscure enough where a small minority will get it and think "Oh, clever." (or not...) and a majority of people will think "What the hell meaningless nonsense is Jefferys rambling on about now??"

    The Great White Meet
    An All-Star Celebrity Salute To Pierre Elliott Trudeau
    The Hilarious House of Megostein
    Excuse My Pin Pin (dug deep for that Franco-Canadian reference)
    Emmanuelle Chriqui (no real connection to Mego, but always worth a mention when discussing things Canadian)
    Maple Meet
    Mego North: From Kingston to Can-Con
    Poutine

    Marty, given that you are exhibiting with us, short of some kind of spontaneous combustion of all these cards, I guarantee that you'll be able to get a set.

    Speaking of exhibitors, so far we have Dana/Fitski and his brother, Marty/Ubermanx, Chris/cjefferys, Brian/palitoy and myself confirmed for table space within the Mego North section of the Burlington Toycon.

    I'm hoping Haggis will be able to join us, and MonsterMatt of course.

    If anyone else is interested, let us know and we'll put you in touch with the con organizers.
    Tables are $60.

    Once we get into January, we'll starting doing RSVP's for dinner at Mother Tucker's after the show.

    You know, I would love to figure out a way to honor Morris Kotzer somehow (the owner of Parkdale Novelty). I can't figure out how we'd pull it off logistically, particularly since he is probably pushing 90(?) or beyond these days.

    a few years ago, Brian, Chris and I had the pleasure of chatting with him and his wife when they spontaneously showed up at a local toyshow.

    Mego Meet, eh?
    Mego Flight
    Royal Canadian Mego Meet
    Canadian Imperial Meet of Mego
    British North America Mego Meet of 1867
    Me-go-ing North of the 49th Parallel

    Get the impression I really want those cards?

    But I gotta admit, my favorite is Parkdale Meet.
