I wisely decided NOT to declare to the border guards I was bringing back some Cocaine.  You know, it’s easier to keep it simple and well, if they searched, I’d do my best to explain that I simply got it for free and that there was no harm in trying.  Hell, I’m not selling!

So, I am on a quest to find a local supplier.  Failing that, I’ll be doing some importing from across the border….along with our missing Cherry Coke!  Dammit, Cocke…bring it back!

Breakfast was annoyingly late.  Went there with Fireshadow(I think that’s his nick…Jacob) and we both ordered at the same time.  He got his full order and I only got my toast.  By the time I got the bulk of my food, Jacob was done his and of course,  my toast was cold.  Yeah….not a big tip left then.  Heard later that they had run out of pretty much everything breakfast-related and some lunch stuff was getting scarce.

There was the wind-down discussion and prize handing out from the Demoparty votes.

I grabbed a bunch of free stuff, two cans of Cocaine (one for me to try, the other to torture some poor unsuspecting friend…), a couple of books from No Starch Press.

We finally got on the road about 3pm and made it back about 7:45ish.

The drive back was not too bad.  I was at the back of the van and I find that most people don’t project their voice enough for me to hear, add in  pair of 6×9′s playing some music and it was quite the strain to hear Myrcurial at the front.  Ah well, we all shared stories, good and bad, and it was a pleasant trip all around.  Would definitely do it again.

Thanks all!

Annoyingly I woke up with a headache and I wasn’t even drinking. Damn weather change/ac on to high right over me.

Breakfast was at the little diner behind the hotel. $2.99 for 2 eggs, toast and potatoes. Ben told me the coffee was good. He lied. Took me 4 creamers (1/2&1/2s) and 3 spoonsish of sugar to make it palletable. The rest was not bad.

First speaker. Cyberwar. Embedded machines, next gen bulk warefare to be concern. Basically the speech was a pitch for packetwars.com

Next speakers, NeonRain &Tottenkoff. Neurohacking. There is an ekg video game. OpenEEG project. More details on tottenkoff.com

Notes are terse, damn headache was killing me. Not only that, it seems that I didn’t save the notes from Tiffany’s talk. Damn.

Back to the hotel room to sleep off this pain. I wouldn’t complain if I had been drinking but damn….this sinus/weather crap sucks. After lying down for about 30mins I got up, walked down to CVS, bought some advill type stuff, downed 3 and came back to rest some. After another 30, got up and wandered around and landed up at the Notacon Radio.

Had a good and funny session involving Harmony, CP, Ken West and eventually Jimmy Chan. After many references to alcohol, Temagmi, sex and zombies, we headed out for food.

After a good Bo-Mans Burger at the Winking Lizard, we headed back to the radio. It was being run by the Cliff Claven of Cleveland. Didn’t stay long there, made an excuse to hit another talk that started at 6pm.

Watched Mycurial’s talk, and killed some time with Ophelia before the BlockParty.

The BlockParty was awesome, cool demo compos and whenit finally ended at 3ish. We headed up to the 622 party, which was just being shut down as we arrived. After wandering around for a bit, loosing Ophelia I was getting a little bored. I was doing a quick sweep for here when I ran into Sidepocket.

Sidepocket was leaving as his plane was flying out early and was supposed to meet Ophelia to give her her stuff. I said I’ll handle so he can leave. After 15 more mins of searching, I just told people that if they saw her to let them know I had her stuff. About 30 mins after I crashed, Ophelia knocked on our door @ 4am. Handed her her stuff and went back to bed

“When I was waiting the 5 mins between refusing the body scanner and the pat down, I try my hardest to get a full raging hard-on to make the pat down as awkward as possible.” – CP

You know you are at a con when you hear the phrase “It works through his pants” as a feature. – Mycurial

The first time I heard APT, I thought it meant Awesome Perky Tits. – Ophelia

I was really interested in watching butt sex infereno from across the table. – Jillian.

I’m texting him to move to my bed. They can fuck there, I don’t care. – Tiffany

This bus is ridiculois, I can literslly see some girl’s nipple. – Jillian. On way home

The opening ceremonies were nothing to get excited about so after that, wandered about, checked out some other happenings (lock picking and beating Altered Beast on an Amiga were cool) as well as meeting new people and rehashing some late night funnies, it’s now almost 5pm and I decided to take a break.

I am still rather annoyed at not having wireless but I might do it anyways and simply change my blog password due to warned about packet sniffers.

Trevyn was expecting a delivery the day before and it didn’t come. They said they stopped by this morning but somehow forgot to buzz their apartment. So we decided to chase down the UPS truck. After driving around the western edge of downton Hamilton we find it! Trevyn gets his Digikey package and then we get Timmies and we’re on the highway!
