I went with my girltourage to the AllCon Sci-Fi convention in Dallas over the weekend. My friend Sandy, who is crazy about costumes, asked me if I wanted to participate in her MIB (Men In Black, like the Will Smith movie) "hall costume" project. (They have costume competitions at these cons, 'hall costumes' are worn for fun) I told her "no problem" but as you can see I put my own spin on the "traditional" MIB outfit;

Here's a young lady in her anime hall costume;

And we had a burlesque show at the con! Here I am with one of the lovely and talented performers, Miss La Divina;

Something for our BSG Fans, at the costume contest this fellow did a great rendition of Adama's "I know how to find Earth" speech, got a resounding "so say we all" from the crowd!

I saw that fellow from a distance in the hallway and I thought he really was Edward James Olmos for a second.
Aaron Douglas, who plays Cheif Tyrol, was actually at the con, but is spite of chatting with him several times I didn't get a picture with him :(
Lord, you Sci-Fi peeps are a bizzare group of folk. Your odd costumes, pretending to be someone you're not...
;D
Last Gallactica this week! I am totally bummed! Kinda wish there was a bar that would show it like a football game...maybe I should check out "Space Aliens"? Love their ribs!
