Everyone take on the Medical Droid!
Well first I drove up to Hastings in Norfolk and looked for Nick to find out he left a few minutes ago. I called him for directions and bought 5 packs of Rebel Storm Miniatures. Nick showed up and we went to his unfurnished new apartment. That place was cool. It had an upstairs which had 3 more rooms. I found out later that he worked from 9pm to 9am but he let me stay overnight. I played KotOR and watched Ren & Stimpy and Clerks before sleeping. He came back and we watched Futurama and talked before I left for Wayne.
Rachel was waiting for me and I brought my Miniatures along to go to Sioux City. We picked up Jodie and Sam and along the way Jodie would some Miniatures on the dash. Here are some examples of a totally random battle against a Medical Droid and a Wookiee chorus line. We got to Target and got distracted by toys, school supplies, and Monty Python. We then went to Toys 'R' Us and got more distracted by toys. Sam got Star Wars Monopoly. We then went to Jo Ann's for fabric for conventions and I got some fleece for a blanket...a blanket...in summer...oh well. We then went to Walmart and got distracted again. Jodie was about to buy a little kid version of Luke and R2-D2. I love how the description is Ages 3-8 because at 8 it will be no more fun. We then went to Sam's Club and Rachel got a crap-load of water that took more than 10 minutes but we did see the Red Bull truck.
We went back to Rachel's after dropping Jodie off for Norfolk and watched Enterprise and made the blanket. Sam was passing out. After a while I returned to Norfolk to my huge hotel room. It was at Norfolk Lodges and Suites and we had a suite. It had a main room and a separate bedroom with a full kitchen and another room upstairs. Well, I suppose that's it until I got see Batman Begins again with Jodie before heading home.

Good Ole Equity
For Theatre, we were put into groups and assigned a guild to present on with a visual aid. She paired me with Jester and, of course, we had to use the Master Cheifs. We were assigned Actor's Equity so we devised a skit involving members of Equity and one of our classmates. Below is a picture of the cast with the names of their parts, with the exception of the giant Pikachu used for the odd finale.
And here's the script:
Patrick Quinn: Hello, My name is Patrick Quinn, President of Actor’s Equity. You know, we are rarely in control of our own destinies. Actor’s Equity is here to give its members a united voice in determining basic compensation and working conditions.
Alec Baldwin: That’s right. Hi, I’m Alec Baldwin. Actor’s Equity was founded in New York City in 1913 and its jurisdiction covers actors and stage managers in the professional theatre.
Angela Lansbury: Hello, I’m the lady from “Murder, She Wrote”. Equity’s goals are to secure and protect the rights of members in their business relations with employers. Equity has over 45,000 members in the United States.
Ashley Judd: I’m Ashley Judd. Equity is a member of the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations and is a branch of the Associated Actors and Artists of America or the Four A’s. We’re also an affiliate of the Federation Internationale des Actuers, an international organization with members from 43 countries.
Rosie O’Donnell: Bonjour, (my name is Rosie O’Donnell.) in French
Martin Sheen: Hi, I’m Martin Sheen. There are many benefits to joining AE. If you have worked for a minimum of 10 weeks, you qualify for a health plan.
Rosie O’Donnell: Yes!
Martin Sheen: If you are employed under contract, and have participated for a number of years actively you can qualify for the Pension and Retirement Plans.
Angela Lansbury: Yes!
Boy: Ooh, ooh! I want to join Actor’s Equity! My name is Boy and I’m a 16-year old student at Wayne State College.
Alec Baldwin: Whoa, hold on there! First you need $1100 for an initiation fee.
Ashley Judd: Then you need either an Equity Contract, be affiliated with the 4 A’s, or participate in the Equity Membership Candidate Program which allows in-training candidates to earn equity credit. Or there’s the Equity Showcase in which a member from AE and SAG among others showcase their fresh talent in hopes for securing auditions.
Boy: Oh Man! I’m only a college freshman at 16 years old. I have none of that.
Stewie Griffin: Well, I doubt you’d go far in Equity with the name “Boy”. That is my professional name and in Equity, you would have to change yours so that there isn’t 2.
(Boy runs off crying)
Patrick Quinn: Even then, he needs to pay his semi-annual dues of $118, and, of course, Equity will get 2% of you gross earnings until we steal a total earnings of $300,000 from you and that would only happen if you made $150 million.
Angela Lansbury: Ah yes, but if your employer becomes insolvent, you will get all the money and benefits as agreed by the contract through Equity’s bonds.
Martin Sheen: But if you are delinquent in paying dues for two years, your membership is cancelled, and you lose all benefits.
Alec Baldwin: Don’t forget about Equity’s Anti-Discrimination Policy.
Sergeant Johnson: That’s right. Without it I would not be eligible along with anyone else regardless of gender, age, race, and ability. And they also try to expand non-traditional roles for those people.
Rosie O’Donnell: All right! (or some other French expression)
Pikachu: Pikachu!

Fun with Doctored Photos
This is funny. It all started when Jester took my stormtrooper and posed him in a position from the Star Wars Gangsta Rap and then Nick was here and saw it and Spidey and thought of this picture, doctored of course. Enjoy!

While You Were Out...
This is what I get for leaving. While I was at the Halo LAN, Nick Nord stopped by and saw my Master Chief. He thought it would be funny to have him hump my water bottle. And yes, that is Silly Putty genitalia.

"So which of these buttons calls your parents to pick you up?"
Haha, I bought some action figures yesterday so I thought I would have some fun.
