None of it was film, it was a memory card in the camera and I'd say out of 2GB of it. 85 or 90 percent of it was used between the pictures and the video. Um there's one piece no wait two clips I'd like to explain on the videos. The guy calling himself the ninja bum, with him and his buddies, we had talked the day before and that's why I taped him. But I felt it needed explaining so that's why he's in front of the camera later talking about his act. Then at another point the camera is just shooting people moving by. The camera was having some weird issue with recording and I was trying to find out if some thing was REALLY wrong with it.

Welcome :), I hope you enjoy the more pictures yet to come. There is more to the report that hasn't been written about. Sunday being a good example even through not much happened. I'm still being a busy bee, my apartment looks like hell and the move is only a few days away.

I'm back :D!

Not going to add much to the report right now but reporting on a new addition to the site due to the report.

On the main site there is now a page named "Interviews". On it is every interview ever held for this forum in links and the audio versions of my interview with Katt.

Hope you guys enjoy :). More of the report will come later 8).

Don't know how many of you read the notes in the Star-Port. I moved again and now I'm with Graylady. Hoping to get back on my feet as soon as I can. Sorry OB, I wish I could spell check your latest but I no longer have access to my spell checker. I did 99% of my work the desktop computer and that was left in Maryland. Only the labtop went with me but the transfurring of information from computer to computer right now is some thing no one is too sure how to do.

I have no idea what to do about the pictures taken at the convention. No more photo editor and the camera's software isn't on this machine.

Not sure what to say the the report right now except the handing out of those filers Saturday morning didn't go as planned. The "tin-dog" refused to move around the floor carrying them for people to grab. Sunday at least the weather got nice ...very wet, but nice. Never walk around outside wearing only slippers on your feet when it's like that. Fell down once on route to Comicfest while in the slippers, nothing bad happened except a wet butt. ...The rat tail oddly still didn't look bad after the fall.

Quite alright. I'm glad to see that everything went well. That's alright. Of course, there is a bit of a problem now, but I'm sure it will be resolved soon.

Anyways, glad to see you back.

Erin glad to hear you made it to Nebraska! I noticed graylady mention on the starport that you were losing cell service so I figured that's why I didn't hear from you again but I was also worried and now I'm relieved to know you are all right! :)

Thanks guys :D.

Now back to the report a little.

...Remember I no longer have access to a spell checker.

As I said the weather was a lot better the next day and the first thing that happened was trying to sell my comic book collection :(. Almost two decades of collecting got sold for gathering the money needed for UPS for shipping :cry:.

Most of the day was running around filming for that set of YouTube videos. If there's one thing truly the same about the '08 and '09 Starfest it's that every thing slows down on Sunday. What was taking place with my collection took place from I think just after 8 am to some where after 2 pm. Katt gave me a firendly wave as we passed each other in the hotel. If any one has questions over the interview go ahead, I'm still wondering where the video went along with the photo that was taken.

At the end of the day I found out that one of my art projects sold, which this being a robot bug. I know there are pictures of that already in Photobucket so I'll post that into this part of the report along with one other piece. Some art work I knew could not be shipped so I tried to sell it really cheaply or get rid of it. One piece that I gave for free, the lady paid me for :).
