I can't go to this con sadly  I can't get off work. Sadly, I MAY get to go only if David was there on Sunday instead of Saturday because I could drive up on Saturday and leave Monday because I could probably take Monday off from work. I'l have to wait for the schedule, but sadly I'll miss this one *pouts* I want to meet David! |

I'm poking someone from the con right now asking if he's going to be there Sunday for ya. I'll let you know.
I am looking at this convention more and more... though it's going to really rely on my surgery date. I'll keep everyone up to date on what's going on.

Hey Gang!
Wayne here and it looks like I'll be attending the Big Apple convention in June! I'm gonna try to get Campbell to come out of his shell (sorry) and come too. I've also put the word out to Mike, Dan, Veronica, Marc, Ed and Pete Z., who played the Fugitoid a few seasons back. Can't make any promises, obviously, especially since the majority of those guys have families and the weather in NYC has been so great lately I can't really blame them for wanting to get some outside time in with the kids. However, I will keep you posted and it helps immensely if you tell the con organizers that you want these guys to show up.
See you in June!
-Mikey

Wow this is awesome!!! I've been talking with some of the con guys, they asked me for contacts on TMNT people. I only gave ones that were public, which means "Myspace" pages or websites with their email addies on them. I'm glad they got through to you, Wayne!!!!! I HOPE I can make it, only issue I'm having is that I might be having surgery around that time. But I don't think it'll be till the end of June before the surgery. |

Hey Wayne, I'm going to try my best to make it, but we're having family problems at the moment(no ones dying, but a relationship or two is)....so I'm not sure what's going to be coming down in the next few months.... But I do have a request, since I'm not sure how often folks check their myspace now adays, what with facebook and other like sites. Any chance for some Villain Chillin moments at the con? Since new eps are still recording, how about Greg Carey, Scottie Ray, whoever voices Karai at the moment, or even Dr.Chaplin's VA? I know it's too much for the super far away LA based Sam to drop by, but one can hope . Heh, how cool would it be to have the entire cast there. Villain VA's on one aisle, and the heroe VA's opposite doing witty banter to pass the time and try and draw a crowd? . Later  Neil |

i don't know. Probably not My mom openingly volunteered on going up with me that weekend. I can't get off on Friday but go up on Saturday, and leave on Monday. But I don't think she'll let me do that and AN and I can't ditch Becky that weekend. I'll let you know. |

Well I was confused. I thought the con was the weekend right before Anime Next but it's actually June 6 weekend. I asked my boss for that Friday off but I have to wait to see. The only problem is that my mom says that she'll go with me if I want to go no problem but she won't let me go to both this and Anime Next and so I don't know what to do at the present moment. I'm hoping my parents will give in and agree to both for my birthday but we'll have to see I made hotel reservations already just in case but if I DO go it will be Friday afternoon and Saturday then leaving on Sunday. |

Ok scary thought....
I may not be able to go to any convention in June.... not even the ones like this that I want to go to.
I was just told the surgery is either going to be June 6th or sometime in September...
So till I get the date, the chances of me going is even more slim than originally thought.

Yeah, I'll be bummed but I rather have the surgery in June than September. It'd really bite if I have to miss Big Apple. I hope some TMNT fans make it to show that we're deff interested! This convention says if this goes over well they'll hold a bigger TMNT event in November. So if anyone can make it, go to this con! |

Yeah like I said it will depend because I have like no money for both this trip and AN. I will have to choose and right now, I don't know if I can back out of AN just yet. I'll have to wait and see. I'd rather go to this one believe me! I'll wait and see who all else is invited!

That's great, it's always good to see Veronica She's always so nice! The closer we get to June with no word from the doctors the more it looks like Miki (my sister) and I will be able to be at Big Apple Con. |

Thanks for the update, Wayne! This con is still up in the air for me! Most likely, I won't be going due to the gas prices. Boo! I can't afford too many long trips now LOL.

Hey everyone, This con is this weekend, I can't wait!!!! Though we are going for both days, we don't have a hotel room or anything in the area. We're not looking for one either, we can't afford it. Though we do know the area well enough that we will survive |

I sorry you can't make it Kaz Too bad, would of been awesome if you could. Gas prices are evil, it makes it hard to enjoy traveling these days. I find myself just cringing to drive anywhere.... I hate gas prices. |

Hey all,
I had my ear flushed yesterday, and now I feel perfectly fine since all the wax build up is out. However, my soar throat remains. I'm hoping that'll finally clear up and I can head out on Sunday.

Hey Gang!
Looks like Pete, Veronica and I will be at the con signing and chatting from noon til 2ish, then we'll take a break and be back at 4ish. We'll probably stay until at least 5/5:30. Same goes for Sunday, except I believe we're doing a panel at 3:30. I'm assuming Zen's schedule is the same as ours.
That's all I know so far. Looking forward to seeing y'all again and meeting some of you for the first time!

I'm not sure if we'll be there or not now... something really bad happened to us today, we were parked at a lake and went for a walk in the woods... when we came back we found my car window smashed open, my laptop and much more stolen from the front seat including my sister's purse.... her ID and all. We're in Maryland right now, and hoping that we can find away to get the window fixed tomorrow.
