i have improved my geek cred by making my first annual pilgrimage to the mecca of geekdom, the san diego comic-con 2008!! i got to sit in on the joss whedon dollhouse panel which was a lot of fun, but i was too far away to get good pictures :(. i wanted to hit the chuck panel as well but found myself getting autographs from star trek greats robert picardo, avery brooks, and jonathan franks. they were down in booth doing autographs, sadly i didn't make it to the line before it closed, still i was able to get a half way decent photo of Yvonne Strzechowski. still, in a few days i'm sure the internets will provide photos of both panels. anyway, wandering the halls i discovered my favorite part of the con, there were a few girls seeking attention by offering free hugs. how could i possibly resist? all the photos are up on my flickr account of which four are randomly displayed on the right and you can find the link below.
