It was fun at the time but in hindsight I look like a complete a-hole.
My buddy Eugene Driscoll (News Times, CT) was there reporting on the convention
and hanging out with Fango Editor Tony Timpone, Managing Editor Mike Gingold and
Creation Entertainment founder, Adam Malin.
Mike: Hey Eugene, come hang out with me.
Eugene: Nah, I'm hanging out with the cool kids.
