CHILLER

Bruce Kimmel Photograph bk's notes

Well, dear readers, a lovely time was had by all. We were in a room with author Jack Ketcham, artist Ken Kelly, and rock group The Misfits. The Misfits are quite popular with a strange crowd, so the people in our room were always colorful. We met some nice people, sold some DVDs and photos, and had lots of laughs. Today is supposed to be the big big day, so we’ll see how it goes. And then, early tomorrow I’ll be winging my way back to Los Angeles, California. There are interesting celebrities at this show – we have Stella Stevens, David Carradine, Pamela Sue Martin, Angela Cartright, Pamelyn Ferdin (any ardent 70s TV show watcher will know who she is), Brad Dourif and quite a few others. I don’t like the way the have us laid out as much as the show we did at the Beverly Garland – about five celebrities to a room and the people have to go from room to room on two different floors. There are two huge dealer rooms, too. But, all in all, it’s just fine and we’re having fun.

I have awakened a bit late, however, and must hurry and get downstairs. Prior to the show yesterday I had breakfast with my pal William Stout, a fantastic fantasy artist (known for his dinosaur paintings) who I’ve known for over twenty-five years. Sitting near us was John Saxon, who looked amazing (I know I posted this yesterday but I’m just repeating it here in case anyone missed it). If anyone misbehaves, Billy Mumy is here to put them in the cornfield.

Well, why don’t we all click on the Unseemly Button below because I simply must jump in the shower (no mean feat) and then hie myself to the room.

It’s quite amazing how much money people must spend at these here shows, going from room to room. But everyone seems to have a good time and I think they genuinely enjoy meeting the people they want to meet. I would bet that there are more laughs in our room than any other. Today’s show goes from eleven to seven, then I’ll have to eat something, write tomorrow’s notes and get to bed, for my car will be arriving at four again to whisk me to the airport.

I will, of course, have a full report on the days doings and I do hope that we will see at least a handful of Hainsies/Kimlets at some point.

Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do, I must hopefully sell quite a few DVDs, books and photos, and meet lovely people and laugh and laugh until the cows come home. Today’s topic of discussion: Who are your favorite celebrities you’ve ever rubbed elbows with? And who were the worst, the meanest? I’d start, but you’ll have to read about it in Kritzerland. Post away, my pretties, and I’ll be back later for some good readin’.
