woo! Hijinks abound! (Though if you bring your awesome coat again I shall steal it! Muwahahahahahahahaha!!!)

And additionally, the phone might take till the weekend but it will be easy enough to secure. (Though I doubt they have groovy Sony Ericson's will probably be stuck with some random pre-paid phone. I shall do my best though.)

Well I've been informed that I need to upgrade anyway

Although I really do need some new boots (the zipper on my left boot died a couple of months ago #sniff#

)

Yeah no worries about the phone. It was more if there was one there. Actually, if you can just purchase a sim card without phone and make it even cheaper for you the let's do that. I've got plenty of handsets here from my previous overseas shenanigans.... and more shenanigans to come! Huzzah!

I'm wondering if anyone would like to go to TransformersCon with me,since it will arrive in two months.

Note that it's in Toronto,Canada at the DoubleTree Plaza.

The only update I have now is that Hasbro is doing their Q and A Panel again like last year....also,the chances of Beast Machines guests might get higher,now that I found out that Tara Strong and David Kaye are not coming to Toronto this year...ah well,more oppotunities for some others(Like Bob Skir)

actually a good amount of BW/BMac actors are up in Canada. Good luck to you! (I think Wayward is usually there and her site has an ad for them so she might be there w/her Insecticon booth.)

Yeah I saw her last year(And I didn't know it was her when talking to her at the Convention)but it sucks that I can't meet some of you guys as I am still on the wee North.

I will inform my parents...they've always wanted to take me with them to Canada.

Maybe there's a chance I can come.

Because I live in North Dakota,it's not as far a trip as it would be for some.

*Waves to Wonko* Hi up there!

*Waves to Razor*Hello down there!

That would be a swell idea that you and your parents will go to Canada,and you and I to TransformersCon n_n

I checked with them this evening,and they said no.

Specificaly,my dad. He's almost always spoiling my fun at one point or another.

So I'll feel kinda crudy for the rest of this post.

However,he did approve of going to BotCon for my golden birthday(Next year

),because I proposed that we could save up,and if I'm not still interested in Transformers(Highly unlikely),we can do something else with the money we've saved.

So,I'm almost ready to cross my fingers(Even though it's still quite a wait until then). At least they agreed to my plan.

That's awesome...so I guess I'll ask some of the kids from the Movie Boards if they want to join me.

Righto, stealing Baron's idea from an email he sent me. But first, Baron has gone out and obtained the mobile phone for me so I've just made the booking for the hotel.

The booking spans from:

23rd May to the 1st June so plenty of time for beach and theme park shenanigans in that period.

The phone number is:
541-331-2931

Now for Baron's idea:

TIME FOR A MAILING LIST!!!

Anyone who is coming and wants to plan within the mad group send an email to:

joseph_a_salemi@yahoo.com.au

and I'll send out a group email once the list has grown large enough.

#sings Team America theme for no apparent reason#

BB Entry successfully updated! Btw, did you ever get my text on your other number, Silver?

Lol you know my email anyways, but for the record, nurannoniel@yahoo.com .

I liked the suggestion of a Universal Studios run. I know they're supposed to be announcing some tours and stuff along with the Botcon packages, but if they all suck, would anyone be interested in doing our own thing on the 28th?

p.s. Lol Since I have a horrible sense of direction (as Sinead may have noticed at '07....

), if anyone can't find me while we're in Pasadena my number is 780-940-6318.

Woo! First crack at ROTF toys! Saturday Night Paramount-fest! WOO!

Registration forms UP at Botcon.com!

Also a preview of one of the figures from this years' exclusive set-- Kup, a remold of Cybertron Red Alert!

(In addition, it's been leaked (the leak has now been deleted) that one of the attendee exclusives will be Skyquake, a repaint of Energon Starscream. It's unclear exactly what his colors will be, but if they're anything like his G1 version, expect them to be fruity: http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Skyquake_%28G1%29 )
