Caaaaaaaackle! ROFLMAO! I haven't acted so silly in months!! To put it Frankly,..I haven't laughed so much as I did with my husband and son as I did last night in a long time!

The image of myself and friends madly invading a scifi convention grew into one where Bill said he would drive Ro's van and let her lead the way as she wheeled herself backwards down a hall,..carrying protest signs and demanding equal rights,..had us all in stitches!!

Snoooooork!!!

And then,..of course,...my five cats,..who survived the "breathing treatment,.." could sit on Ro's lap and shoulders..as she wheels herself along...meowling all the way..(whhooops,.the cats would be meowling...not Ro!)...in front of all ten of us,.club members,...talking madly on our hands!! The image formed in my mind is one straight out of Lexx,..itself!!

Heh! One look at all of us would be enough to scare all of the folks,..who came dressed as imaginary Klingons and Borgs and people from other planets...clean out of the hotel!!

Indeed,..and it is a sobering thought,..such an experience would be scary for many such folks,..coming to a place..like a scifi convention to have a good time with images of imaginary creatures in their heads,..and then to be hit smack over the head with the sight of my friends and I.

What a contrast,..such an image makes..for my friends and I among all of the revelers..would be the only starkly real people in the whole place. For us,..the come-as-you-are-contingent,..we would be..as we really are in our everyday lives.
