doesn’t scott treat you as the goh at your house? other than that, you just need the roaming pirate party to swing by and you’re all set!

We can be bribed — er, I mean, encouraged — to show up at places other than ConFusion.

I vote that you come back to Michigan, so I can see you!
Oh, and I needed to tell you, I won 60 dollars in club Keno, with your magical numbers! I used the Fibs up until 55, and threw in a 39, for Midnighters luck. So I won 60 dollars at dinner, and now I filled out a real lotto ticket, so if I win millions of dollars, I’ll have to share some with you. ^_^

Sorry about the cold. Too bad you weren’t here a couple weeks ago when it was 50 degrees rather then -40.

You two were fantastic GoHs – as good as anyone in my five ConFusions. Think of yourselves as the WNBA of GoHdom – not as famous, but more approachable and a lot more fun.

The wheat panel might not have been what people expected, but it was great. I suspect you, Scott and Scalzi couldn’t do a boring panel if you tried, but that one combined an interesting topic with exciting war stories about wheat-crazed fen.

The sports panel was also great fun, especially since no one talked positively about Quidditch! I just wish I had more of a chance to talk to Doselle about boxing.

Next time you and Scott come to CF, we’ll have to do “Fantastic Sports II – All The Stuff We Didn’t Have Time For in 2008″.

Since I want you two to come back, I probably shouldn’t mention that was the best weather we’ve had for CF in years. Last year was even colder – the lobby was like Antarctica – and we had blizzards every year from 2004-2006.

But come back anyway!

You were a most excellent GoH and Brian and I were pleased as punch to hang out with you. I think my stomach muscles still ache from laughing so hard!

You can be my guest of honor. To what? To my Awesome Person Festival. Never been held before, probably never will, but if it is, you’ll be my first guest of honor!

Excellent to know you had a great time and that you survived the cold. It must be said that is was colder than usual and the ConChair had traded cold for no snow. Now Yanni, Brian and I all need to plan a trip out to NYC to see you again.

Confusion is a good convention. It was the first SF con I ever attended. Back in ’00 I believe.

And it’s always cold. Though the weather seemed unusually nice. There’s usually a snowstorm iirc.

Don’t always get to go, and this year was no exception. Daughter came home from college. Sorry I missed you. Glad you had fun. It sounded like a good con from all the posts I’ve read.

HA! I was one of the precious few actual teens in attendance! So take that!

And I was not at all disappointed by the wheat panel.

confusion sounds fun.

it is cold here too. it is not supposed to be cold in texas. it’s warmer in portland, for crap’s sake. the only thing cold is good for is making ice days so that school closes. if school won’t be closing, it had better be 60 or higher, else i’m not getting out of bed. *hibernates*

although i bet it’s warmer here than nyc. you should come be a guests of honor down here. i’m sure we could arrange some event or other.

arrrrrr, matey.

Welcom back to NYC! I’m a native and I feel like I will never, ever be warm again. I feel your pain.
