Hey, guess who I met today? Billy Dee Williams. A friend of mine from the local Star Wars Fan Club works at a local TV Station (Fox 13, the Morning News that Muley performed on a few years ago) and "Lando" was there representin' a play he's in here in town called "If These Hips Could Talk."

It's cool to meet a guy from Star Wars' history, but he was really stand-off-ish, in a hurry, and kept telling us, "I don't usually do these kinds of things," as he was signing our stuff. However, he was patient, took photos, and signed for us, so I ain't complaining too much--though it would have been cool to talk to him a bit more.

I got lots of photos of Behind The Scenes stuff of the morning news which I can't post all of it, but Monday I will post some along with the Billy Dee Williams shots at:

Yeah, it's cool he let us come in to meet him; he got swamped at a local radio station yesterday.

The Avatar: Well, I'll change it out 2 more times today and use up my April Fools' avatars, then before I go away for the weekend I'll get up the Fozzie I had at the beginning of the week...changing it again to a new Fozzie on Monday. Thanks for the compliment.

BTW: There's some Midsouth Con 22 photos of Lin and I performing at the comics convention here in town from March 27, 2004, at the picture trail site now, too. Worth checkin' them out!!
