Subject: Fan Odyssey Con Report
Just returned home from 2001: A Fan Odyssey--Celebrating the Career of Stan
Kirsch. First, a great big Thank You to the organizing committee, it was a
great weekend.
Maureen Russell brought great footage and dailies from several episodes.
Most notably were scenes from End of Innocence, Legacy, Revelations and Comes
a Horseman.
Andrew Helm (Script Coordinator) and Roberta Brown (sword mistress) brought
dailies of Elizabeth, Valentine, and Peter from Queen of Swords. It was
quite entertaining. Roberta Brown came on two days of the Con, and took part
in the auction. By the way, there were some really neat items auctioned off.
Stan looked great and was charming as always. He showed footage from some of
his earlier demo tapes and brought the short film "Reason 13", in addition to
short out takes from "The Flunky".
Elizabeth talked about "Raven" and "Queen of Swords". Although she did not
give specifics, it appears there may be a possibility of seeing her in
something new in the near future.
As usual, some of the best times were at the Auction. Stan and Elizabeth's
onstage antics together were alternately hilarious and sweet. They really
seemed to be enjoying themselves.
Some Special Memories:
Elizabeth teasing Stan into taking off his shirt for the Auction-He looked
GREAT, by the way. Elizabeth and Roberta Brown teasing Stan o stage during
the auction.
Stan calling Adrian from his cell phone on stage during Stan and Liz's Q&A.
All in all, the smaller venue of this Con allowed for some great times
throughout the weekend. The GOH were relaxed and really appeared to be
enjoying themselves. Kudos to the organizing committee for a job well done.

Count yourself lucky. Paul Johansson or Jim Byrnes might well have been in
mine if Historicon had happened! And while they are thoroughly nice people,
they wouldn't quite have had the same effect on me as some people.

Hi everyone
Just wanted to let everyone know that we are in the final stages of
organising the Tuscan Cooking Tour, which will be hosted by Elizabeth
Gracen's wonderful friend, The Contessa Ippolita.
No - you don't have to cook for the week! You can just, eat, drink, shop and
wander the Tuscan hills and villages. Go to the web address below for
further information and email me directly if you are interested in joining
the group on 9th June.
Please feel free to copy to other lists and boards.
My kindest regards

Ditto!! Details!
I'm with Nora. It's not fair to tease us like this. :-) Did anybody take
notes? Whatever happened to the day-by-day and blow-by-blow reports?

I *knew* you had the hots for Tracy!!!!!

Scooter is going too? And..what can you do with Scooter at 20 paces? I think you need to be closer to have any fun (my apologies to Jenny)

>(1) Auction off cats.
No one pays for used cats. Used cats must be given away free( the expense comes later in vet bills)
>(2) Auction off blueplasticautographedkatanas - nah. :::: erase

Indian-auctioneer!
>(3) Auction off sister. Yeah, that works.
And just who is going to bid on anyone's cast-off sister?
>(4) Sell incriminating pictures of Jette raiding the Weezul's
>private stash of fine Glenwazzis
I have the video tapes - don't need stills.
>(5) Sell incriminating pictures of the Weezul being kind.
As if. Any photos which purport to show me being kind are obviously fakes and I'll see you in court!
>(6) Rob Immortal Investments, Ltd.
Feeing very brave tonight, aren't you? Remember, we picked the carpet *especially* for its ability to hide blood stains.
>(7) Corner market on acrylic nail supplies; sell to Cassandra at
>inflated prices.
Now, now, is that any way to talk about the woman-you-love's alter ego?
>(8) Auction off picture of a certain - um - former PORA (tm) at
>the DFW Shrine, Syndicon '96.
Newbie pictures?
>(9) Auction off Rob's rocker.
Isn't he still sitting in that?
>(10) Auction off incriminating pics of deb holding a pair of

Sorry- it's a glut on the market. Everyone has pictures of deb being undemure.

That horse is dangerous- don't come crying when you end up being dragged all over the paddock.

Carpet! When do you get Carpet? Last time I dropped by the ceramic tile was
Dark Red, or had it been a while since the ferrets mapped the floor?
Lynn, don't forget the lollipops, just leave the root beer pops behind.

Neither. He will either be in Toronto working on Tracker and will fly
back for the weekend, or in town not working because of the SAG
strike.
