This past Saturday, I was at Staple!, the independent media expo. It was quite a hoot! Accompanied by the lovely Susan Kath, I chatted with fans and friends alike, including old pal Anthony Rezendes from Cranium Comics and new acquaintance Dean Trippe (creator of Butterfly and founder of Project Rooftop).

I took a few snapshots of the expo, and one movie worth sharing. (I've been trying video sharing services Vimeo and YouTube. The quality of Vimeo movies are very nice, but YouTube is so ubiquitous I don't know if I should avoid co-posting movies to both places.)

In case you didn't know, Richard Garriott, creator of the Ultima computer games and Tabula Rasa, is going into space at 3:00am Eastern Time. As part of "Expedition 18," he'll be going up in a Soyuz rocket (which is sort of like the "classic rockets" used by the US before switching tot he Space Shuttle). Richard will be staying on the International Space Station for a few days before he comes back down.
