This will be my last post for a little while, as we shortly leave for San Diego to attend the mother of all conventions, San Diego Comic Con.

In addition to Lar and myself, we’ll have plenty of merchandise on hand including books (Volume 1 and 2 in Hardcover), blankets, shirts (new ones as well), hoodies (Richard Costume Hoodies!), key chains, plushies and of course a new convention poster. As in previous years, we will be at Booth #1435, listed under ‘Blind Ferret Entertainment’.

If you’d like to stop by and see us, but are unsure as to the proper protocols involved with such a feat, we happened to create an instructional video last year that is still valid:



We would love to see you there, and we’re happy to sell, sign or chat whatever you’re up for. Also as usual, Lar will be taking commissions.

I know this is the point where I usually mention my need for my favorite beverage in the entire world, but I promised myself I wouldn’t be blatant about it.

But
Really,
I’m just happy to see you there. I
Never want to be a bother. It’s not the kind of
Guy I am.

Moot as the point may be, I wanted
Everyone to be clear.

Regardless of what
Each of you may think,
Don’t feel the need to
Bring me anything at all.
Unless you want to, of course.
Let this be the end of it.
Love you.

Somewhere, someone is reading the above right now and trying to figure out it.

But seriously, bring me Red Bull if you want me to live.

As always, the updates will run on time and on schedule, and we’ll be back before you know it.

Hope to see as many of you as possible out in San Diego!

(Red Bull)

As much as I would like to go to the convention, alas i cannot. But if I ever do I'll make sure to bring Sohmer his redbull, otherwise I may not survive that convention. But for those going, have a good time.

laugh.gif I'll be there, Almighty SohLar, with Red Bull and plenty of cash for you to remove from my person! Can't wait!

Sooo totally was looking forward to seeing you guys this year. I've been a follower of LFG way back when it began, but only recently opened up to talking on the internets. (im a loser i know...) Anyways, the 23rd is my B-day and was gonna go spend some time at Comic-Con for it. But my friend who I was going with dropped out on me, and I can't afford to go on my own. (cries) So I will lift a red bull in your name on that day to hopefully see you next year. Have fun!
Imuzen
Hope y'all have fun! Be sure to have fun for me too. It's too bad you weren't there 10-15 years ago when I was still in-country and went to SDCC every year for vacation. sad.gif If you're ever on Okinawa though, let us know! biggrin.gif

P.S. Your SDCC video short is awesome hilarity! laugh.gif

was I the only one that read the the original post skipping every other line to see if he had secretly written:


I just wanted to say
its ok please dont feel
you need to bring me red bull or i will
be displeased and
beat you to death.

... i honestly though he was writing something like that...

(if you didnt get it read every other line)
TakerFoxx
If I bring a large supply of both Redbull and Cadbury Eggs, would that please you enough to grant me a picture of Richard fighting Rayne with lightsabers?
Trinity
I will be there... and yes I will be bringing some goodies for you guys! I can't wait! I'll be there on preview night... *squee*
SmallFlower
I will *try* to be there. (Since I don't have tickets, and am trying to obtain them through various *cough*pleading*cough* means)

If I am, I will present you your goods just like I did last year... on my knees like a good follower of her god. smile.gif

hahah. i'm embarrassed to say that it took me quite a while to get that the hidden message is in...

... does this need a spoiler warning? or am i the last person to decipher this thing?

... well it's in the first letter of each line =)

Simplified:

I just wanted to say, you need to bring me Red Bull or I will beat you to death.

Watch the video, it explains it a lot better. More ferocity in it than I can muster at 7:30 in the AM.

Those who are part of the Army of Lar are required to bring at least a case of Red Bull with them when showing up to ComiCon. One is for you, to make sure you don't pass out when you're geeking out over the latest gaming creation and the rest is for Sohmer... lest you find an imprint of his new wedding ring on your forehead.

(Great way to explain to girls you're into tattoos and branding.)

Whats the average price range on Lar's Commissions? Just curious.

Three hundred, plus the cost of food, water, living expenses, protection insurance (mostly from his cohort), life insurance, broker's fees and attorney's fees (for when you tackle him after seeing the booth from across the room and he ends up with whiplash). You can do the math from there. wink.gif

Hhmm... Well if i sell that spare kidney ive been holding on too, then just maybe.... *Thinks8

I do give thanks for today's comic in the name of all that is sexy and hot. Obviously the Lords of Art have answered my fangirlish prayers for MOAR FANSERVICE. And I can see nothing more gloriously fanservice-ish than Kale in a fundoshi covered in blood.

Your fangirl underlings are pleased with this. At least, this one is. >.>
Vnoid.
I would love to come! if only I was over 18, and in America tongue.gif

Come to Perth in Western Australia!

You can buy Redbull with colourful plastic money.

Indeed. I was imagining everything he said in the movie actors voice (wonderful choice!) and mentally squeeing the whole time.

My room mate is at Comicon. I could probably send her to pester you guys but she'd likely end up being all neobish about it and bringing some off brand energy drink, or my husbands brand, Monster (Assult). She invited me, but unfortunately I was unable to escape from the indentured servitude that people call the travel service industry. Something about all this warm weather and lack of school has the tourists out in force.

How badly would you kill someone who brought you a generic energy drink, as opposed to the wing giving nectar of the bulls?

You really don't want the answer to that question. Trust me.

SacredDemon17
*Sigh* My online friend went, she has a picture with you two in the back ground as well as a picture of her with Richard... She thought about kidnapping it for me but thought you might out run her... >.> I said that was only cause the red bull tongue.gif
Lenniel
Con was great and it made my event to see you two there. The story about the mother in the mexican restaurant was priceless...those who were present will understand. I may not eat the salsa for a while..*shiver*. Hope you get back home and recoop for next year!!
Crypticorchid
Got to see both Lar and Sohmer on Saturday. Gave Sohmer a 4 pack of redbull and got Lar some Jelly Bellies. biggrin.gif I was so excited. I bought a blanket and got my husband a new shirt. They were making fun of the one he had on. It was a LFG shirt but it was kinda faded from much use. lol.

I even have pics yay.

I would be interested to know the actual number of cans of Red Bull the group managed to cache in their offering pile.

A happy Sohmer is an awesomely cute Sohmer. Awwww...
