Artist Guest Myles Pinkney
A Note from a Friend: Myles and I met, appropriately enough, through an art contest when we were both in the seventh grade. We each had our partisan friends who thought we were "the best artist in school", but rather than becoming fierce competitors, we became fast friends, spending lunch hours discussing perspective, philosophy, and favorite artists. While the seventh grade contest was never decided, a year later, Myles won first place in the school art show. Over the years Myles has gone on to win innumerable awards, but I know that the opinions of friends, family, and those who enjoy his work are more important to him. (more)

Gaming Guest James Ernest
James Ernest has been living for many years under a small rock named Charlie. He is easily confused, and he likes food, getting stuff, and people who are not screaming. In 1996 he started a small game company called Cheapass Games, where he now lives with his wife and young daughter. Surrounded by dust and paper, the family enjoys pleasant games of Bitin' Off Hedz and yearns for another, less-expensive trip to Disneyland. (more)

Room Parties
If you plan to hold a room party at MisCon 21, please post on the Room Party Registration forum. We want to make sure your party is centrally located and does not receive noise complaints, but there are a small number of rooms available each evening.

MisCon Goes To The Movies

We are planning to make a block of seats available to MisCon attendees at the Missoula Carmike Cinema 10 for the 25th of May, 2007, the first day of the convention.

We will purchase tickets in advance at the matinee price. No waiting in line! Attend Opening Ceremonies Friday night to find out where you can get your tickets. So we have enough on hand, please send your name and the number of tickets you will purchase to CthulhuBob. Don't forget to indicate which of the above two movies each ticket is for. Last year about 50 of us car-pooled to X Men 3 -- don't miss out!
