    Is anyone here going to Comic Con in New York next weekend? I'm curious because there's a possibility I could go.

    QL article

    I found a really nice article about a potential movie and about the series. It even mentions the 2009 convention. (Sorry if it's been posted before--I've been away lately.) http://www.movieline.com/syndication.php?vaid=2074edf99b8d6c4147d79503d0049e52

    Scott on CNN?

    My CNN homepage says that Scott Bakula is live on CNN right now! http://www.cnn.com/ But when I went to the video page it wasn't him. :hmm http://www.cnn.com/video/flashLive/live.html?stream=stream1&iref=lb100 So hopefully someone can sort that out...

    How does Super Shuttle work?

    Can I ask a stupid question? OK, I guess I already did. The Leapback website says "wait under orange sign and the shuttle will pick you up." But do I need to go to the Super Shuttle website and book in advance? Or do I just tell the driver, "Beverly Garland"? My flight is scheduled to arrive...

    Fan fiction contest?

    Have the notifications gone out yet to those who submitted works to the fan fic contest? I haven't heard anything about my submissions. Just wondering... after all, the con is only 5 weeks away now. I don't even remember when I submitted, but I may have sent from my old email address, which I...

    Food?

    From the website, I see that the hotel has a restaurant, but it looks like there won't be any specific food service for the con. Is that right? Eating restaurant meals for 4 days would really add up, so I'll be looking for some cheaper food alternatives that don't require a car. What do people...

    What about the beach?

    So is it reasonable to hope to go to the beach in March in LA? Are there any good beaches that I could get to from the hotel? I rarely get to the ocean, so I like to take any chance I get. Besides, it's friggin' cold here in PA right now, and I'm starting to dream of warm places.

    Question re amount of time Al was in 'Nam

    This question comes out of a discussion that somehow ended up on The Leap Back thread. In MIA, Al said that he came home from Vietnam in 1973. But at the end of The Leap Home: Vietnam, which was in 1970, Al said, "What the hell, I get repatriated in five years." That would mean he doesn't come...

    convention for The Office

    Are there any fans of The Office here? There's talk of having a convention in Scranton this fall. I'm not such a big fan of the show myself, at least not yet because I've only seen a few episodes, but I might go just because I live only an hour away. If anyone here was going, it would be fun...
