Lest you think being the webmaster here is a glamourous life of movie premieres, dalliances with scantilly clad fans, and deciding what nasty rumors to start on the Internet today, let me relate the conversation I had on my arrival home with my wife Brandy:
G: Happy Valentine’s Day, snoogy-woogy.
B: Same to you, bozo. Oh, Kathleen called.
G: Really? What’s up?
B: She’s asking for two favors.
G: Uh-oh. Yes?
B: She wants you to post a note to the website that she and Peter will be at Farpoint this weekend, and anyone who wants to say “hi” should come on down and do so.
G: You mean Farpoint Convention, this weekend at Marriott’s Hunt Valley Inn, 245 Shawan Road, Hunt Valley, MD with Special Guests Armin Shimerman,Gary Graham, Eric Pierpoint, Michele Scarabelli, Gil Gerard, Erin Gray, the Boogie Knights, Lolita Fatjo, Michael Jan Friedman, David R. George III, Bob Greenberger, Inge Heyer, Marc Okrand, Prometheus Radio Theatre, Susan Sackett, Howard Weinstein, and The Not Ready for Paramount Players, with more information available by calling (410) 785-7000?
B: If you say so. How do you get your voice to do that thing with the link?
G: What, when I say Farpoint Convention?
B: Yeah.
G: It’s easy. Try it yourself.
B: Farpoint Convention. Hey, that’s neat!
G: Did Kathleen want me to say anything in particular?
B: She said to write something witty.
G: Fat chance of that happening. Let me guess, the other favor was to make sure that I posted lots of old But I Digress columns while Peter’s offline?
B: No.
G: No? Then what?
B: They want us to tape Farscape and The Simpsons for them, they forgot to set the VCR before they left.
There. Now you know everything. Oh, and about those scantilly clad fans… for Kolk’r’s sake, Tom, put on a bathrobe, will you?
