Loscon 50 Day One
Okay, so I’m finally not dead tired from Loscon, so here a review from day one. New Hotel, new experience. There is only one bad thing I have to say about the LAX Hilton, and it’s the same bad thing …
Loscon 50… Is History
We just got from Loscon 50 at our new Hotel, the LAX Hilton. Great con as always. The new function rooms are huge. Art show… Blood drive… Maker room… And way to late to write about it all. Full report …
A Little Help from our Friends

Revving Up
