Cheers!

Yeah, David, I saw the "Kell" people there. I have a few shots of their group gathering before the parade (on Saturday) as well. LOTR people, I think.

Wifey even dressed up this year. Since we are devoted Firefly fans ( ), she did her best to dress up as Zoe. Wig didn't come in time for the weekend (and, of course, my wife isn't the same skin color as her but she admires the character). Don't anyone DARE make fun of her looks ( ). Remember, unlike most of you here, I'm old (53), and she's quite a bit younger than me and very very attractive to me. (I think she's not quite happy with me posting her pic here but...since it was her first time in costume...I couldn't resist).

I'll get back to posting pics for a "younger" group later.

BTW, David, about 6 doors down from our hotel room, the KAG (Klingon Attack Group - or - Klingons of Atlanta, Georgia....not reallys sure what it stood for looking at their banners) received special permission from the hotel to have a party outside/inside their hotel room. I don't think the noise died down till after 3 in the morning!

In the same parade, they had "converted" an old (circa 1970s) car to a Klingon warbird. I'll have to post a pic of it, too.

Meanwhile, back to the "popular" pics:

(don't ask me what character this is supposed to be...a gothic fairy?)

There was a rule at the "*Con": You couldn't be totally nude. So, for example, as long as the nipple was covered, it was OK. (hopefully, this photo is allowed here as this person roamed around the convention and outside of the convention in "conservative" Atlanta...and as we have seen in the link David gave, there were lots of kids there, too)

Dear Slynky, might I give you some words of advise?
I suggest you keep more pics of your wife to yourself. The pics are highly disturbing. They make me... well shall we say primitive (sorry Primitive One). The most ancient of urges begin to surface and soon after I'm out of control.
So do us all a favor and keep those pics out of sight!
Yes, this is a huge compliment. Both to you and your wife.

David:
Thanks for posting the link David. I'm going to browse it as soon as I have had my diner. It's the dessert of tonight.

[Slynky]

How kind of you, Timstone!

Told my wife of your compliment, and though it made her feel good, it was not much help. Seems I posted without total "permission", so she insisted I do the same "to myself". So, gulp, here I am on the couch of our hotel. She says I'm a mixture of Picard and Sean Connery with glasses but not as good looking as them. (personally, I think it's their accent/voice that smites her ).

So, to keep peace in house...

And, to get back to the INTERESTING pics, there is this happy girl:

Now, speaking of daring...here is a bit of color for you!

[Timstone]

Hmm... posting without permission. That's not good.
Ah well, bring home some chocolate and flowers and she'll be alright.
Cool to see a pic of you on this forum.
Unfortunately I don't have digital pics of myself. I don't like pictures of myself, they always show my bad side.
You said "our hotel". Does that mean you own a hotel? If it does, then I would most certainly like to stay in your hotel for vacation.

[Slynky]

Yeah, like I'd own a hotel...LOL.

Ever been to a convention? Though we live 35 miles south of it, we decided a few years back that doing the "con" all day and driving back and forth was too tiring. So, we book the Marriott (one of the hotels hosting the con) for the weekend. $500! After all, up at 9 am, and to bed at midnight every day of the con. Wifey and I do this as our only vacation for the year. So, we "swallow" the cost.

[Slynky]

Now, a test:

Who can identify this star?

She appeared at the con and chatted, took questions, and just had fun. She laughed, got interrupted by calls from her husband, talked about her "famous kegger" and paused for me to take this pic.

I'll give 2 clues: Can you say Buffy or Taken?
