Nothing like a FAC roaring up to my OP smelling like Old Spice and drinking cold Coke. Gotta love those guys. Thanks, but I can do CAS on my own, go away.  We keep talking like this I might head back over to the recruiters office  :o



There were some folks setting up camp across the ditch from us the year before last at night. They were obviously already drunk and several were wearing plastic Viking helmets with horns. We turned all our chairs facing them and began to tease them using terrible German accents. "Yooo droppped yoywer heeelllmuuut".  I guess they got tired of the teasing because the loaded up and drove several rows down, out of our sight and set up.

Guess some folk have no sense of humor?

LOL  Drunks tend to lose theirs when someone points out how incapable they are of accomplishing something WHILE they're drunk!  ::)

It was pretty entertaining, i guess the monkeys and a football analogy would suit it best. People tangled in rope, tent falling all over the place, helmets flying off, falling down...yeah it was epic. Obviously camping wasn't something they did, like, ever.

Our teasing wasnt mean spirited either, just a bunch of heckling.

Oh, btw... final design decision has been made, and ultimately my original idea won out over theirs, and I will actually be paid by Monday!  Plus... I get ALL of their future advertising design work, starting NOW with business cards and a brochure!!!  WewT!!!  :D

Some people just don't know how to laugh at themselves...

Well, maybe "Laird Fraser" doesn't...  :P  :D


What's the use in being serious all the time, anyway?  If something needs changing, then change it, but don't fret over it constantly, or you make yourself ill!  It if can't be changed, then find a way to adapt... or find a way out. 


There's a Latin phrase I try to incorporate into everything I do...

This is true...


... but Laird Fraser is all that matters when it comes to Faire... the other guy gets put away for awhile.


*he's a bit grim and stressed out so he doesn't get to play here*

Oh!  No one even noticed that we passed 400 pages and 6000 posts (that honor went to Crash!) just a few minutes ago!  Has anyone taken a look at where this thread is in the stats, lately?  Movin' on up!!!  :o  :D

I have the feeling he doesn't get to play much of anywhere... and maybe if he did he could relax a little.   Well, Laird Fraser is certainly a fun guy, so Faire is a good place for him!  ;)

Any word on Loki production schedules, then?  Oh!  I need the actually flavor names you'll be using so I can save each one as it's own file for the labels!  :D

Yes... I'm aware.  :)  


I believe that's true for many of us... although I'd rather think that somewhere there is at least one who will be equal to the challenge I pose.

Heckling is a big part of the fun. It's like you know someone likes you if they give you a hard time lol. I wouldnt tease you if we weren't friends type of thing lol.

Hence why I dread Fraser's arrival to Comicpalooza where I am chained to an author's table and can't escape ;)

That's a very good phrase. I can think of a million people who could use that.
