    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

      I can't wait...missed last years
      "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"

      In the Southeast Pacific, lies the sunken city of R'Leyh. There lies C'thulhu waits to return to our world with the other Great Old Ones. A hideous creature of enormous size and alien power, it waits for it's time to return patiently. For it has all the time in the world while it waits for the stars.

        Great, I'll be there before that. Might even be as early as 5. Depends how many stops I make.

          I'm getting excited! I have a bunch of stuff to do before then, so I better get busy.

          I'll be arriving very late on Thursday, but should be ready to go on Friday.

                  As soon as someone decides to organize one.
                  It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                    Anyone going to the show for the first time need not worry... Just follow any of the heavy set balding middle aged dudes to the end of the hall on the first floor where the Mego suite is (a hotel room dedicated to hanging out in). There are usually guys hanging around just outside the door on the end as well having a smoke or a beer or both.

                    Other clues that folks might be there for mego meet.. Superhero t-shirts. Conversations centering around vintage toys. Honestly not hard to miss those there for Mego Meet, and no need to be shy.

                    This is only my third show and everyone is wonderfully welcoming in my experience.

                      There are no invitations for the Suite. You simply need to show up and introduce yourself. It usually starts about an hour after we return from Hoss's on Thursday night and an hour or so after the Meet closes Fri and Sat. It runs until the wee morning hours. It is very informal. (You must wear clothing.) Wives and siblings are welcome. Realize we may get out of hand and may not censor ourselves sometimes. You can bring your own drinks and snacks. We usually have some stuff available. The fridge is open use and on the honor system. I'll also make my fridge available for overflow which is next door in the adjoining room.

                        Last year was my first time. My wife and 2 year old accompanied me. EVERYBODY was very cool and friendly!

                            I'll be bringing my 9 year old son for the first time, and the wife for the third time. Not sure how much hanging out in the suite time I'll get, but I'll atleast stop in once. Any plans to continue the races out on the sidewalk? I know my boy would love that!
