Quickie thoughts...
A couple notes I took while at Archon...
Day One: Friday.
Saw a Timey clone. She was the same build/height/etc... Except she had short hair. Even had the same voice. I almost went up and asked if she had any relatives named Andrea... Forgot to, and never saw her again.
Got tipsy. Revealed Drew Barrymore fixation.
Day Two: Saturday.
Saw a dark-haired chick in a black velvet dress that immediately became an idea for dressing Ems or Timey in. Scooped-out back with black cording in a crisscross pattern. And the back was slit from the hem to just below crotch-level. Looked awesom with the knee-length boots the woman was wearing.
Missed the front, though.
Day Three: Sunday.
Thought. My policy is to not swear or curse around kids--I try not to, anyway. To be nice to their parents, mainly.
However. Parents? Don't give me a dirty look when I slip, and you're sitting there SMOKING around your child.
Let's see. Which is gonna have the more damaging effect? Bad language: Your child will just seem uneducated and dumb when they use them a lot. Smoke: Well, statistics tend to say parents who smoke end up with kids who smoke. And you can bet that second-hand smoke isn't doing Junior's lungs any good.
Somehow, I don't think a kid is going to die of bad language. Cancer, yes.
OTOH, they could be uneducated-sounding AND smoke. Two for one...
Now, where did I put my culling equipment...
