A Nerd Turns Forty

On Top Of The Hill And About To Go Over I recently turned forty years old.  It’s something that I highly suggest all people do at least once in their lives.  For some it’s just another trip around the sun.  For others, it’s an opportunity to reflect on the life that they have lived andContinue reading “A Nerd Turns Forty”

Louisiana Comic Con!!!

Bossier City, LA North Louisiana has a lot of wonderful things going for it.  Unfortunately, having an excellent comic convention hasn’t been one of those things in a long time.  Thankfully that shortcoming has been erased with the first Louisiana Comic Con in Bossier City, LA at the Bossier Civic Center.  Myself and a friendContinue reading “Louisiana Comic Con!!!”

Fan Friendly

Lake Charles, LA I’ve been a fan of many things over the years.  Some of them, like Doctor Who, Star Wars, Batman, and Nightcrawler, have been a part of my life for a very long time.  Some of my other interests, such as Star Trek, Firefly, and Harry Potter, haven’t been with me as long.   I grew up watching Doctor Who and Batman.Continue reading “Fan Friendly”

What Makes A Fan A Fan?

Lake Charles, LA I often read reports, opinion pieces, blog posts, and social media comments related to fans and fandom.  Most of them boast about the true fans of a certain sports team or the hardcore fans of certain superheroes.  Some of these fan groups that are mentioned have actually been given names like Trekkies/Trekkers,Continue reading “What Makes A Fan A Fan?”
