Hehe. Mikka is never, ever, going to live that one down. Big Grin

Glad you had a good time Mikka, an cool photos. Is there going to be a third day too, or was this the end of the whole thing?

I'm attending -- another signing event. a Q&A 2 hours session and a 2 hours reading.

I'm missing - a comic writing workshop (tickets ran out and they were 150 sheks a pop anyway), a signing event (I'm at Mil).

Neil's a funny guy. I don't know how it is abroad but his israeli fanbase seems to have confused him with a pop star.


So far he's been called a "rock star" many times. Just curious, how is that different from a pop star as you say?

This thread reminds me of Balticon last summer. Fingers crossed he does something similar the next summer. Seeing him several days in a row is awesome!

Yeah, except I bet there was more breathable air out where he was signing in Israel than there was in that hotel suite in Baltimore!!! (I think he deserved hazard pay, even though they had two big electric fans blowing on him.)

You are a Confectioner. Who can take a sunrise and sprinkle it with dew? Actually, that's Bob The Enchanter, two doors down on the left. But you make delectable treats, which is no simple feat considering Oompa Loompas won't be invented for three centuries. Not only do you delight with your sweets, but you've paved the way for a new profession: dentistry!

It was pretty airy, at the signing however morrow - the signing is being held at his tiny comic shop. I'm worried it's going to be stuffy. I'm worried the hundreds are going to ruin my favorite store :\
I'm afraid I won't get to get anything signed!
I need to stop worrying :P
heee j/k!

You are an Accomptant. You keep track of the King's accounts, which is a fairly simplish job: his current holdings is always A LOT, and his expected revenue is always MORE. 'Sgood ta be da King. As long as there isn't a peasant uprising, you're likely to keep your head. Also, you're the only one in the office who knows how to use an abbacus. (Or multiply.) (Or add.)

I prefer to live in a country that's small, and old, and where no one would ever have the NERVE to wear a cape in public, whether they could leap tall buildings in a single bound or not.

I found this link:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/109822596/sets/72157594328228352/
but it's nothing official...

I think the best thing to do is google icon and gaiman and find random pics on people blogs and such.. I'm sure icon.org.il will have pics sooner or later (as will comikaza) and also check out icon 2006 forum, maybe people linked to their pics from there.

good luck Smile if you find any good ones, post em here!
