aria wanted $5 for a pic, i was like CHA!

 

You should've done what I do to bums that ask for stuff...say this:

 

"I was just going to ask you for a (insert item they asked for)" devil.gif

 

Heh..seriously. If a bum asked me for a quarter...I straight faced say "Damn dude, I was just gonna ask you for a quarter!". Stops them dead in their tracks.

 

When she asked for $5 for the picture, you shoulda pulled that on her..."Damn lady, I was just going to ask you for $5 for a picture with me....sorry"

 

Heh...or take the picture with her...and then tell her she OWES YOU $5 cause you charge $10 for your picture.

 

I hate people like that.

Screw you, Hippie! errr - Hippy - err - whatever! tongue.gifhi.gif

 

Gotta admit.. some of PovertyRow's pre-code horror stuff is pretty stunning. Makes you appreciate the craftmanship that went into the older books.

 

The major change in the newer modern books, in my opinion, has been the superior coloring afforded by computer coloring and computerized printing. But there's something to be said for the rich colors in those older Golden Age books. They just seem more like "real" comic books.

Hey man, thanks again for the lift back to the parking garage!

 

WonderCon was a great show for me in terms of buying. I was able to find some nice specimens of FF 48, 49 and 50 all from the same collection. They are nearly identical in cover gloss and page quality, so they look pretty cool laid out next to each other.

 

Meeting everyone from the board was amazing - Two nights of comic and alcohol related hijinks that will live on in infamy!

 

Best of luck to everyone going back on Sunday. Hope you find some books to make it worthwhile.

Thanks, POV.

 

It means a lot to me that you and FFB thought they were good looking books. As sckao already commented, your pre-code horrors were truly stunning finds. You have a very good eye for picking out relatively inexpensive books that are just killer. Bravo!

I have to say, sckao, I REALLY appreciate that. Check out the GA forums tomorrow everning and I will post my final buys - I have to say I AM excieted about them, even though they be few in number. But this Wondercon was special. Meeting the forum folk - man it was nice. And one more day to go -and As Wondercon was closing down I found a place I missed that had some potential - maybe I can add to my books!

 

But you know - I took Monday and Tuesday off - I will get a good DVD burner and another LCD monitor for my 2nd computer and STILL be able to bank a tidy sum of what I did NOT spend. And you know? I may actually hit San Diego Con after this to further my collection.

 

Pov, you got me into the "Tales Two Terrible To Tell" anthology which I loved!! Those pre-code books rock - branching out a bit into the EC reprints now . . .

s h # t eating grin, if I ever saw one.

And I mean that as a compliment...but couldnt think of a better phrase to describe your smile.

I was sick as a dog with food poising, but I wasn't going to pass up the chance for a picture. I got another picture autographed, but she wasn't wearing clothes in that one, and unfortunately I was not standing beside her in that take 893frustrated.gif

 

As for the hand on the butt, I actually believe it was accidentally, and my wife was not happy sorry.gif
