Well, there were some FANTASTIC TIMES long ago as Colonial Marines, as Xenomorphs! Lots of Laughter and Camaraderie with old Friends.
Perhaps we should start a "Photos of the Colonial Marines at Dragoncon"? A Tribute to the Past. We've lost Members and it would be fun to share those stories of friendship. Of Chris Chulamanis, who was the Heart and Soul of the Colonial Marines.
Forget the bickering of the past, let that be in the Past.
But we should remember the good times, the fun, the smiles, the joy, the FUN!!
I don't believe DCon is in the cards for me this year, but I loved the 3 I attended and really plan on doing more. It is always on my radar, even if unlikely this round.
As to the above idea, I do think a "Tribute" post sounds pretty cool. Something like a "highlights of DragonCon history" post in the "Ready Line" would be lots of fun. Maybe it would remind people how much fun it can be to get together in person and highlight just how much swagger this group can have. Worst case we get a lot of awesome pictures and stories. What isn't to love?
