I don't know if you've done a convention before - I've only been to one, and I felt a bit of a twit when I paid for a ticket to have my photo taken with JM, but wow, was it worth it - if you go, go for it - you only live once! What a sweet guy. I was glad I dressed up - lots of people didn't, and I think, if you're paying to have your photo taken, you may as well make it an occasion - I think its appreciated too. One of my favourite things is a JM chuckle.
