Finally mde it back from c4 and I got to say how pleasantly surprised I am at the amount of OT fans that showed up. There were plenty of fans who you would not normally see at a Celebrations, the older ones who have always loved the movies but never would have gone to a con. I certainly enjoyed it more than CIII, of course the weather was more cooperative. Got Lorne Peterson, Dennis Muren, Jon Berg, and Phil Tippet to sign my bug ILM book.

Got to see the early cut of 5-25-77 and attend the panel the next day. It is going to be a darn good movie when it's finaly edited together. And my biggest ego moment was when I was asked for my autograph because i was in the cast of Return of Pink Five.

Oh, it wasn't a bomb threat actually, but a bomb scare. Apparently there was a "suspicious" package across from the convention center and security was called. When it was discovered that it was nothing more than suspicious "Hasbro" package, they ook down the poilice tape and opened everything up again. I even took some tape as a souvenir. Authentic LAPD police tape.
