I've actually met Erin Gray before here in Dallas.  She's really nice but all into crystals.  But she's still hot which is amazing.

Oh ... boy ...

Yes, the life guiding and healing power of rock is an amazing thing that we should all learn and at least respect.

Well i have to say that so far Erin Gray has been the nicest person to talk to at the convention.  I'll have to retract my snarky comment about her crystal love.

Got Michael Golden to sign a Micronauts #1 & 2 for me.

Got autographs so far from Erin Gray, Gil Gerard, Lou Ferrigno, & Walter Keonig.  Talked to Richard Anderson as well.

Coolest moment:  Walter Koenig saw my Green Lantern T-shirt, made a fist and clicked his ring to mine and then said "In brightest day, in blackest night, no evil shall escape my sight.  Let those who worship evils might beware my power, green lanterns light!". He said GL was a comic he loved as a kid.

Pardon my language, but I feel there is no other way to describe that other than to say ....

that is fucking awesome.

Lol. Adam West just said that Julie Newmar gave him curious stirrings in his utility belt.

ROFLMAO - he just did the batusi on stage!

Ok - It sure seemed like I took more pictures than this but here's what I got.

Me & Erin Gray - my Green Lantern shirt was a hit with Lindsy Wagner (the bionic woman) and Walter Koenig (Chekov).   Lindsy Wagner's son is in the Green Lantern movie   playing Tomar-Re.   BTW - doesn't Erin Gray look good?  Can't believe she's 60 years old.

Lou Ferrigno - not the friendliest, I have to say.

Hawkgirl was the winner in my book.  Those wings are made from actual feathers and the wingspan was huge.
