Geekfest 2009

Once again I engulfed myself in the center of the Geek universe at the annual Comic-Con in San Diego over the weekend. It's a place where geeks commune and celebrate everything Geek. I'm the TV Geek so my focus for the weekend was one, DEXTER and two, LOST. Everything else was interesting and amusing and I went with it. For more information, check out www.comic-con.org.

mr. spock

I was walking around in between signings and saw Mr. Spock himself. Surprisingly, not that many people were around him so I got in line to get his autograph. He was a very nice gentleman. He signed and took a picture. After, I shook his hand and said "Thank you, sir." He's 78!


DEXTER

I love DEXTER. It's a TV show on the Showtime network about a serial killer who was raised by a cop and now works as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami PD. It's good drama.

I got a bunch of DEXTER stuff- signed bobble heads of Julie Benz, David Zayas and C.S. Lee and a signed action figure of Michael C. Hall. Score!

Jorge Garcia, "Hurley" was being interviewed, so we tried to get some pics as best as we could.

You couldn't miss the guy. Here's Jason and Trishia with "Hurley"

lost panel
I got in line for the Lost panel at 8:45am. The panel didn't start until 11am. I was lucky enough to get in. There were several superfans that camped out overnight in line. Below is a clip I found online of the beginning of the panel. I think you might be able to find the rest of the parts by clicking on the right side of the page. Good stuff. Can't wait until the final season begins .
