Thursday at 7 it's the Super Happy Fun Sell with 50+ sellers selling their pre-loved anime stuff at discount prices to YOU. I have been whittling down my pile of 'sell' stuff so I won't have as much to sell, but it's always fun to be there in the middle of the activity.

Later Thursday night I'm doing the live version of my "Top Ten Least Essential OAV" column, which ought to cause a flurry of hand-raising and "You Forgot..." among the audience as they seek to display their own awesome knowledge of these arcane subjects in the one place such a display will be acknowledged and encouraged.

Friday night it's time for Anime Hell, preceded by Neil Nadelman's Totally Lame Anime and followed by Ryan Gavigan's Midnight Madness!! Now in Hall D of the Galleria!

Saturday night some of us old goofs are getting together to catch up, shoot the breeze, and reminisce on the Old Daze of anime fandom in Atlanta. Yes, it's a C/FO Atlanta Reunion!

Sunday morning Neil and I are going to talk about our favorite anime show about the plucky orphan who survives waterfalls, step-sibling abuse, cross-ocean voyages, public schools, the harsh world of professional nursing, and repeated shocks to her romantic nature - it's Candy Candy!

Sunday afternoon we're doing the Atlanta Anime Con roundtable panel, but I don't have an image for that one yet. So it's another busy convention of panels and parties and socializing and selling and all that jazz. If you can make it be sure to catch me at one of these things and say "Hi!"
