flaming carrot meets captain america

this last weekend i attended the san diego comic-con. i had never been before and i was very happy i went. my good friend and fellow comedian danforth france invited me to tag along with himself, mike hollingsworth (also a funny comedian/friend) and a girl named anna (she's an animator). we got there and met up with our good friend/spasmodicly funny josh fadem and stephanie escajeda, one hilarious stand up comedian. ...jezzz, all my friends require explanations.

i strolled in and met abraham lincoln, played some unreleased video games, ran into an old college professor, witnessed the meetings of greats: flaming carrot shaking hands with captain america, green lantern posing with hellboy and a predator, r2-d2 in a parody skit with bender from futurama- but wait there's more. i also overheard a father yelling at his son for losing his best yu-gi-oh card in a tournament, watched 52 costumes paraded across a stage in competition, learned of the new star wars movie title (revenege of the sith), overheard a father praising his son for winning a great yu-gi-oh card in a tournament, fought a martial arts expert with my twin dragon, josh fadem, and of course read a few comic books.

i probably spent too much money. mostly on the drinking of fine spirits, and gas station food items. but worth it.

i can't wait until next year!
