Missing Expo and Avengers
Well, due to powers out of our control, there was no Smackdown panel at Calgary Expo this year. We’re looking at returning for next year, and also possibly one or two cons in the USA this year (more as it develops). So instead, some of Admin_Rock’s Expo adventures…
I had booth for my Brickwares Lego stuff, it looked like this.
A couple of you were kind enough to drop by, and Tomass was lucky enough to get his own private panel, as the other boys just happened to be hanging around the booth at the time. I like the private panel idea. Next year, what, $120 per?
So yeah. I made a Lego Mosaic of Jayne, and Adam Baldwin was kind enough to sign it for me, and capture the moment on film. He was super nice, and we’re best friends now…
Later in the weekend, I also used the Lego magic to weasel my way to the front of the line to get Billy West and John DiMaggio to sign my mosaics. I think Bender would appreciate that I did that. Here’s me and John, we’re best friends now…
I built a Scott Pilgrim mosaic that RobbieRobTown is totally jizzing his pants about.
Oh, and just to top off the weekend, Wil Wheaton came by to talk shop. He’s a big Lego fan as well. We’re best friends now…
Oh, and we’re all jazzed up about The Avengers, heading out to see it opening weekend. I think TBinns is the most excited. I’m also excited, because Joss Whedon wrote and directed, and because I get to eat popcorn.
Excelsior, or some junk!
Admin_Rock.

Well, now I can cross “See a Beatle live” off of the old life list.
Dear Shoppers Drug Mart:
It's no secret that here at The Correctness, we are a very literate bunch. We're interested in things literary, words of all kinds. Normally, this isn't a problem, apart from the always being right and constantly having to correct language choices.
The song that's been in my mind lately, is "Closing Time" by Semisonic. It's always been a favorite of mine, not because it's very catchy, but because it has some very interesting phrasings. The one that always stick out is
Back with Admin_Rock's weekly look at what's hot, and what's cool, (at least in his world.)
Some people I know who are into spiritualism, which is the practice of inexplicably believing anything you are told by some jackass who wrote a book, swear by “The Secret” The central idea, I’m told, is that if you think of something hard enough, and want it enough, it will in fact happen.

I had a 2-hour, kid free window all weekend. No dice. I was there last year, though, and I’ll return when they organize their Con a little better. And I’ve bought RRT lunch before… Though I think I owe him a dinner now. That counts for something
Good job A-Rock! I look forward to THE CORRECTNESS TOUR ’12!!! My Touring Mazda Protege trembles with excitement at the thought of being a Correct-head!

$120 bucks… ok but only if it includes an autograph of your favorite Correctness member. Also I want to request that the VIP fee (in case you can’t pick a favorite) is no more than $750 and that it will include an autographed signed photo of all 3 members. I’m not counting the other guys you tried to pass off as members. I mean come on they didn’t even have stick figure likenesses.
Robtown, I spent the rest of the day attempting not to speak in Haiku format.
Admin_Rock, My Megaman portrait is proudly on display in my living room.
Tbinns, your tale of cancer comedy haunts my dreams.
You collectively win first prize for most entertaining, least crowded, non-panel, panel of the EXPO.
