Busy Weekend Ahead!
Lake Charles, LA Bayoucon takes place this weekend in Lake Charles, LA.

Wannabeeeees!
Lake Charles, LA Calm down, calm down. This post has absolutely nothing to do with the lovely Spice Girls (although they are a guilty pleasure of mine). Nope, I just used their photo to draw attention to the topic at hand: Wannabes. Yes, there are a lot of “wannabes” out there. From wannabe athletes toContinue reading “Wannabeeeees!”

New Additions To The Ol’ Star Wars Collection (And A Collector Rant)
Lake Charles, LA Now, it’s time for my collector’s rant. Normally I don’t mind when other collectors gripe about the quality of a figure if they are purchasing high end figures (i.e. Sideshow Collectibles), but reading about all of the whiners griping about the quality of the Saga Legends and Black Series figures is reallyContinue reading “New Additions To The Ol’ Star Wars Collection (And A Collector Rant)”

CyPhaCon 2014!
Lake Charles, LA Deep in southwest Louisiana, in the growing city of Lake Charles, there is a convention that takes place every year that is something of an anomaly. It’s called CyPhaCon, and it has done something that very few fan-run cons in similar (and in some cases, larger) markets have achieved: It’s thriving and growingContinue reading “CyPhaCon 2014!”

It’s called CyPhaCon, and is the brainchild of a few people that I am proud to call friends.
