Adventures of Kuma

Bear attended the historic 1000th meeting of basfa this evening.

When asked, Lisa explained that Bear was about 19 years old, and his birthday is in early June. BASFA's Treasurer put him up in the Birthday Auction, for which the winning bid (from Chris Garcia) was $4. Bear complained to Lisa that he wasn't so cheap as they seemed to think he was. Just for that Kuma introduced as a nomination for BASFA's Rumor of the Week Millennium that "Kuma Bear has been ghostwriting for Chris Garcia." Unfortunately, that didn't get the nod from BASFA.

After BASFA, it was time to head back to the room and watch poker and have more fish.

Kuma and Lisa arrived in San Jose today for SiliCon. Kuma spent much of the afternoon watching TV while Kevin and Lisa moved cartloads of stuff from their vehicles into the hotel room.

Later, Kuma made an appearance at the Fanzine Lounge, which, located smack in the middle of SiliCon's Party Floor, turned out to be The Place To Be Seen.

Bear will be around SiliCon all weekend to see and be seen.
