Kansas City Fandom Meetup!!!

Okay, here's the scoop:

At Terminus, a bunch of people discussed having Midwest Fandom Meetups.  The Chicago crowd has had their fun, and now it's time for the Kansas/Missouri crowd to get in the swing of things.  fiona_fawkes  and I are feeling fandom-deprived and it's time to do something about it.

Either the weekend of November 8th or November 15th, we're going to host a gathering at our house.  There will be food, pirates, prOn, games, drabbling, Muggle-scaring, and other highly inappropriate behavior.  And if you want an excuse to wear your house colors, feel free.  We're considering the options of a one-evening event in which we go out, a one-evening event in which we stay in, and a whole weekend evening (including sleepover) in which we do both.  We're also within walking distance of the plaza and it would be fun to go down there.

We have some sleeping accomodations available.  We have two full-sized futons, one extremely comfy couch, and a couple of air mattresses.  If you have an air mattress, sleeping pad, cot, or other such thing and want to sleep over, it might be a good idea to bring it along just in case.  (A sleepover might be prudent because we're probably going to drink and talk until we're too sleepy to function.)

So, if you live in the Kansas City area, or if you live further away and just want to hang out anyway, go over to fiona_fawkes 's livejournal and RSVP via the poll, HERE.

Also, I would like to propose an election-watching party for the locals.  Who wants to hang out on November 4th after we've all voted?

Hey, Sarah Palin

So the guy on the right looks a bit like a deer in the headlights while he's singing, but the song is a hoot.  Really.  Click.  Watch.  Sporfle.  And then be afraid... be very afraid.

One of the people who was at our house last night for a BBQ actually doesn't see why Sarah Palin is too stupid for public office. It scares me that a woman of approximately MY AGE could be so blind. What's wrong with our country?

Too much time on Photoshop...

I made this.  I am inordinately proud of myself.

Edited:  FIXED IT!  :D

It had to be done...

After my photoshop of McCain, it was only fair to go after Palin.



Like poisoned honey.  (Click to enlarge.)

Oh, McCain, what have you become?

I used to respect McCain. But there are so many reasons why I no longer can. Here are a few:
