Oh My! I just had to come out of lurk mode to thank those of you that attended the Shindig for taking the time and making the effort to share your adventures. The post was delightful, gotta love a talking shrub and the pictures were amazing. The cast seems very personable, as does this site and forum. I've enjoyed wandering around in here and appreciate this site. Thanks again and I hope that more of you get to visit the set!

Took a long time to get here but I'm right on time.
A good friend will show up at the jail with bail money. A great friend is sitting in the cell beside you saying, "Damn! That was fun!".

Wow, great pics and a great story. Just wish I could have joined you there, but I'm yet again reminded of the fact that I live thousands of miles away.

I've so been looking forward to hearing what happened yesterday, as I am part of the BDECC (big damn east coast crew, I just made that up because I'm slightly manic right now). This ranks up there with The Coolest Things Ever. Thank you so much for posting and sharing!!! I have NO frikkin' clue how I would act so I feel you. I'm pretty sure I'd be shaking. And they'd be like, what are you shaking for, I pay bills and burp just like the next person! Yeah, but you got purdy eyes... I usually say something extremely dull to celebs/personalities and want to hit myself like Chris Farley afterwards. I'm sure you did just *fine*. And... you got that sweet photo with Nathan. It was surreal, right?! He's just GORGEOUS. But we knew that. They're such a good looking cast.

"Me too." I don't think I'm going to be able to get back to work now. I'm going to have to jump around or have somebody slap me.

OK, y'all are going Friday? Dude, I am ready to hop on a plane now from Maryland!!! I am so totally on the wrong coast.

Thank you very much for the photos (Nathan looks really fantastic!) and the report. You are such a lucky one! I'm stuck here in the middle of Eu and Rope... and can't even imagine how it would be to be there.
So thanks again for sharing your BDM-adventures!

Time for some thrilling heroics.

My companions, by the way, were fabulous and wonderful people, and I only avoid naming them here because I don't really know how much they want to be exposed on the Internet. ;) I'm a pretty private person and I don't like having my own info out there on the Net, so I'll let them speak for themselves on the day's adventures. :)

Dude,

I just gotta say, I understand completely. I'm a HUGE Farscape fan, and I went to the Science Fiction Museum Grand Opening on June 18...and ran face-to-face into Ben Browder. Just about had a fanboy coronary. All I could say was "No f&^%*&g way." Interesting choice. Of course, y'all had WARNING that Nathan, Summer, Alan and Jewel were going to be in the area...I had no idea. Of course, imagine my surprise an hour or so later when I met Stephen Spielberg. Autograph and everything. At least I saw him coming, so no "No f&^%*&g way." But, I do understand about the conflicting with the professional instinct. I was embarassed for days.

I think they secretly dig it, though.

I am so excited for all of you. Damn being all of the way out in Kansas! I am shaking with giddyness just from reading about it. I hope the others that venture out are as lucky and come back with stories for us non-west-coasters. Hehe, I said coasters.

Great pictures, great story. WooH!

Oooooo. Shiny. I can hardly imagine what it would be like to actually meet our BDH. Actually, I imagine I would be both mortified and deliriously happy. They sound like such kind and welcoming people. And to walk through the set! Wow. What an awesome story, thanks for sharing.
