HI!!!! New Orleans was awesome. Good times, good drinks and good friends. My animator buddies Dave, Nick, Eric, and Andy where there. We did go to the convention, there were some interesting things. I talked to a few people about work and have emails to send out. The hotel was the most convenient one we ever stayed at, there was all kinds of things within walking distance, also it was right on Bourbon st. For the eight days I was there, I only got drunk three times, the other days we were recovering. As for the strip clubs, we only went on the nights we were really drunk and the criteria for our visits were no cover and cheap beer.
All in all, a great time. Thanks to Siggraph and the guys.

Yup left the house in search of Comics and spending gift cards. I found comics in the form of Brave New Worlds. A sweet comic shop in Center City. Though it didn't have as many back issues of Deadpool as I hoped, but I got some. And book called, Bookhunter, a graphic novel about a book detective. Look forward to reading it.
Afterwards I went searching for this fabled George's Music store Google told me existed in Center City (also ran into my old college friend Chris). Alas I didn't find it.
In reference to the Google at Siggraph thing. They always have a booth at Siggraph. In case you were wondering.

Hey folks. It was fun and can't wait to go to New Orleans next year. Later.

So this ends "regular" updates. And begins Siggraph updates. So I'll be doing updates at erratic times over the next week. Maybe even updating you on fun times I'm having.
