God DAMN it!!!

Friday night, I buy a nifty-neato new watch at Target. I like big, clunky digital watches with all sorts of features. This one was big, clunky, and looked like a panel off the Enterprise.

I was a happy penguin.

Today, I wake up and the thing is dead as a doorknob. I'm taking it to work with me, because Target is just down the road from the mall I work, and going in a demanding a new battery gratis.

BayCon

Today is not getting off to a good start. I have just received another "Baycon is Dead" rumor. I keep hearing different things.

All I want to know at this point is if I am on the list as a panelist. I have been for the past few years, and fully expected to be this year. I've been to every BayCon but three, and I'll be damned if I miss the 20th anniversary con.

But mail to programming goes unanswered, the web site is not overly useful, and if I'm not on the list, it is too late for me to afford memberships.

Getting a bit hot under the collar here. I know a few people on my friends list are involved with the con.. could one of y'all prod the programming head to answer his/her e-mail?

Back when I had knees, maybe.
