Eileen's photos are the best document of the weekend I've seen (as they are every year) and J's videos give a tantalizing taste of what went on. It seems trite to say this was the best Rondo ceremony, Old Dark Clubhouse and Wonderfest ever, but that's the absolute truth. All three get better every year. Lisa and I had a fantastic time and once again we thank everyone whose hard work and simple friendship made it happen. In the four years we've been attending, the Rondos have gone from a low-key affair to a rollicking and touching tour de force, thanks primarily to the efforts of David Colton and the momentum and credibility of the Awards themselves. Joe Moe's acceptance speech was one of the most moving things I have ever been a part of.

Forrest J. Ackerman Shall Not Die!

The amount of labor and love Gary Prange puts into the Old Dark Clubhouse every year is simply staggering. This year's Captain Company theme rendered speechless everyone who entered. Thanks so much, Gary.

And finally a big thanks to Donny Waddell and Dave Conover for making the "Classic Horror" side of the Wonderfest the success it is.

It was great to spend time with Tim and Donna Lucas, Jim and Marian Clatterbaugh, Joe Busam, David and Eileen Colton, Nurse Moan-Eek, Gary Prange, Bob Burns, Frank Dietz, David Schow, Mike 'precode' Schlesinger, Kerry Gammill (briefly), and Zombie Dad and Mom "off the boards". God only knows who I'm leaving out, but I had fun with you too.

And, hey, I got to see my wife have a flyswatter duel with Max The Drunken Severed Head in the Old Dark Clubhouse!
