SharkBoy and I got up early-ish and had breakfast at one of our haunts… the Coach House on Yonge.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a>

They Do, if You Ensue it Happens.<\/p><\/div>\n

After, we hit the Toronto Reference Library for the TCAF<\/a> where Social Media crashed into me hard. First I met Steve MacIssac<\/a> of Shirtlifter<\/em> fame and while my eyes hungrily ate up his thick frame (I follow his reference pictures on Flickr and smile), I happily shucked out $6 for a signed copy of his first comic. Signed. Suck it!!<\/p>\n

Then it was a short hop to Joel Watson’s table. The creator of Hijinks Ensue<\/a> was awesome and a really super great guy.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a>
Me And Joel!<\/p><\/div>\n
So I bought a book and he asked what sketch I wanted in the front cover. I hesitated and asked for “Joel”, not sure if I should have said “you” since the comic characters are of real people, himself included, in impossible geek situations. He hesitated too. “Me? Usually people ask for…”<\/p>\n
“…Josh?” I finish. Josh is a gay character in his universe who 9 times out of 10 is the funny guy to Joel’s straight (ha.) man.<\/p>\n
This is what I got:<\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/a>
I like you. I really like you!<\/p><\/div>\n
After spending some time and cash, we wandered with our cameras down to the Distillery District and took some pics:<\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/a>
It's a Walking Eye, Hank! A WALKING EYE!<\/p><\/div>\n
Then we walked down by some dockside bars and met up with @TomWDart. Actually he was out enjoying the sun and looked good especially after his bout with some viral thing. <\/p>\n
$\"\"$ <\/a>
Tall Tom<\/p><\/div>\n
On the way home we saw some tumblers. Not the drinky drink kind, the bouncy bounce kind:
\n
$\"\"$ <\/a>
Boing!<\/p><\/div>\n
And then SharkBoy was on his knees in the park. Tsk. But he got the shot!
\n
$\"\"$ <\/a>
Tyra called...<\/p><\/div>\n
Now we’re about to sit down with a good movie or heroin or something. A perfect day!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
