By the way... PAX follow up

[mizarchivist]

For those of you (like my Dad) who are not familiar with the stylings of Paul and Storm, they have this song called Opening Band, (recording from last night) as they tend to be the opening band for Jonathan Coulton (although this is changing).  Within the lyrics of said song, they say "and as of today, no panties have been thrown," except there usually are some who oblige- well! I forgot to mention that I fashioned some out of the green pipe cleaners, since the PAX folk thought that the nerds would have fun with them while waiting in line (we did) and since I was that close, they did get up. One other person thought of it, too--- soo! I'm briefly famous again in a very oblique way. The video is shot from far enough back that you wouldn't be able to tell without their saying what it is--- Mine are the ones on the left (stage right).  ^_^ geek glee!

Further side note- I was really afraid I came down with the PAX pox. Or in this case, lunch didn't agree with me. Let's hope the pox stays away.

Entirely thrilling for me. Normally they stop and make a big deal about counting the panties, but they were rushing along, so the pipe cleaner contribution was the only particularly special mention, so... major woo :)

FUN!
