Hehe, there's so many funny ones in there that I can't even remember any. I'll have to find it and read it again. Some of those stories are just disturbing though.

If you'd managed to get to SDCC this year, you could have hung out with me and the Playboy Playmates I went out to dinner with *big grin* Hanging out with Steve (Hef) Morger equals a bonzer time!
And if you ever get to Oz, Paul and I will look after you! Best,

Yeah, you have to put it into perspective. That many years of con experience is bound to have a lot of crazy stories. Makes one nervous though hehe.
The Playmates...yep..that would've been nice
I still hope to make it to Oz one day.

That seems like a fairly unreasonable view. Don't bother coming if you're not going to do a sketch for me? I've never asked an artist for a sketch or expected one and I've always enjoyed meeting my artist heroes. To me, it's always been enough to meet them, take a handshake and maybe ask a question or two. Don't get me wrong..a rude artist sucks and they should at least show friendliness (this includes signing, but not mountains of books for each person), but I don't think they should be required (or have a responsibility)to do any more than that.
