    Talking I Met Chekov!

    This past weekend I went kilted to the Comicon in Williasmport, PA. It was the Con's first year so it was pretty small but there were some cool names there including Mr. Chekov, Walter Koenig! He was there promoting his new comic series and doing a first ever showing of a short film he made. Here's some pics of the event and me in my kilt.

    He was wonderfully funny and gracious. One funny thing happened that really sticks out to me. While taking pictures with him he made like he was going to lift my kilt for the photo, then while we posed for the photo he says jokingly, "Sir, please remove your hand from my a**." and without thinking I just replied, "but it's surprisingly firm and supple!" I really need to think before I speak. (;0P

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    I think that's PERFECT. I'd never be able to come up with that one. Even with knowing Grant personally.

    I think he means Grant of the rubber chicken.

    If you meet Sulu, tell him I send my regards.

    Great pics! I didn't recognize him at first, I keep forgetting the age of a lot of those folks.
