Dairycon is over. I sold a couple toys. I spent time with friends. I setup my Xbox 360s for kids to watch Transformers shows and play games on. I brought some RC cars painted up like Transformers for kids of all ages to play with. And I gave adults the peace of mind to walk around looking at toys while the kids were engrossed. It was a good day and I’m happy to be going home. Good weekend. Good friends. Good times. I enjoyed it.
Today is Dairycon. Scores of Transformers (the toy not the electrical thing) fans get together in one location for an old school convention where people show up in one place, meet each other, and get along as we buy and sell Transformers. It is a fun time. I bring some toys to sell, and a couple Xbox 360s to play Transformers movies and games on. Add in some RC vehicles that are Transformers themed and we all have a lot of fun while the adults are checking out toys. I love getting together with like-minded geeks.
I watched the Fallout series tonight. I loved it. It plays with the original ideas and feelings of the original games, and it does it gosh darn straight. The main vault dweller plays the role perfect, and my main man from Burn Notice chews the scenery up in his old way as one of the best characters in the series. I loved it all the way through to episode 8. Its just a gosh darn good time.
Once the South American Union Council quelled the Communist revolution on San Santiago, they took measures to make sure another similar revolution would not occur in the sector. Council investigators sought out reports of seditious activity by Communist collaborators across the sector, while Council law enforcement agencies conducted pre-dawn raids on everyone from low-level conspirators to the previous President himself. The Council wished to prove that they could bring seditious Communist conspiracies into the light no matter how hard their enemies tried to hide them. The Council would accept no revolutionary movements in their territory, and made certain everyone knew it. There would be no repeat of the San Santiago nightmare under their watch.
With the old President of San Santiago and his Communist supporters driven out of the capital, the news networks foretold a return to normalcy as the freely and fairly elected new President came into power. They gave wide reporting to his quick actions to reverse the previous President’s evil Communist policies, and broadcast his speeches throughout the sector. He promised to rebuild their trust in the government to defend San Santiago, and to be a President to all Santiagans. Except of course for the unSantiagans who aided the illegitimate President in his Communist attempt to overthrow their sacred Democracy. He promised to track those insurrectionists down and bring them to justice for their betrayal of San Santiago and the entire sector.
