Ahoy there.
Sorry there haven't been any updates to I-Mockery over the past week, between the 2007 San Diego Comic-Con and Protoclown visiting me here in L.A., I've been far too busy to update the site. Re and I are also moving into a new place this month, so that's also keeping me preoccupied a' plenty.
That being said, I'm working on putting together my annual photo gallery from this year's Comic-Con. We took 800 some odd photos, and I'm sure a lot of them will make it onto the site, so once again, you can expect us to have the biggest coverage of the convention anywhere online. It's just gonna be a lil' bit late this time around.
I'll have plenty more news to share in the near future, but I've got a ton of emails to catch up on and even more photos to weed through, so I gotta get back to work now. So until that big Comic-Con piece is ready, let's have another discussion in the ol' blog...
Survey: What have you been doing for fun this summer? Gone on any spiffy trips? Seen any good shows? Flagged down the ice cream truck driver only to be crushed by disappointment when he informed you that he was out of bomb pops? Spill da' beans!
Update: I almost forgot to mention that The Monster Squad has finally come out on DVD! If you don't know what this movie is about, make sure you read my big feature on it and I'm sure you'll want to own a copy of it immediately.

Nice to hear of you -RoG-... man I wish I wasn't living meters away from eskimos, those Comic Con looks awesome.
Qyzex (Guest) on 08/02/2007 6:06 pm
oh man... Bomb pops... mmmmm.
Well, the excitement for me this summer hasn't come yet. I head off to Wizard World Chicago next week, so that should be my awesome trip of the summer!

Noah (Guest) on 08/02/2007 6:48 pm
I've been in a production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolored Dreamcoat!

Spiffy Trip: Went to L.A. and ALL the surrounding areas.
Doing this summer: Applying for various teaching jobs and working at Target.
Flagging down the ice cream man: He had the strawberry icecream bar I wanted so I was happy.

My summer activity was a trip to Chicago where I spent three days eating different things with my girlfriend and checking out all the different museums, planetariums, and zoos there. Lincoln Park's free Zoo was interesting. It boggles my mind that such a nice zoo can exist at the cost of a city without it degenerating into a crime ridden hole. But it was leasing to see nonetheless.
Tim (Guest) on 08/02/2007 6:57 pm
Pleasing, I meant, not leasing :P
Reaper (Guest) on 08/02/2007 7:31 pm
Rog. You should go see the band Green Jello. Dunno if you heard of them, but they did the music for the awesome game Maximum Carnage. They do local shows in L.A., or so I've heard...
freakmeat (Guest) on 08/02/2007 7:59 pm
i went to toronto and saw evil dead: the musical. it was so boss. too bad their not showing after aug 11 or 10.
Heatto-kun (Guest) on 08/02/2007 9:29 pm

Jesse B (Guest) on 08/02/2007 10:12 pm
WHAT!
How did you and Protoclown escape the giant jar of acid sharks and marshmellow fluff I placed you in?
anonymous (Guest) on 08/02/2007 11:41 pm
Im visiting San Diego at this time, if I went to comic-con I would have said hi.
Nyarlathotep (Guest) on 08/02/2007 11:50 pm
I went out to Galveston and came back early for the Warped Tour (also because I think our beach house was haunted...)
Cory (Angryhydralisk) (Guest) on 08/03/2007 1:24 am
I went to the local Theme Park and enjoyed it for the first time in over ten years. That and I blocked all the gay porn my cousin's kid puts on this computer.
Jomb (Guest) on 08/03/2007 2:56 am
I acquired another property. Thats not really so much fun as it is work though.
But... just recently work has begun on my Mystery Project. With zombies, great apes and sleazy managers it will be fun, at least in theory.
James (Guest) on 08/03/2007 6:23 am
Good to read ye again -Rog-,
I've been working at a zoo all summer, at a community college in florida.....semester could be going alot better :(
Drake (Guest) on 08/03/2007 10:18 am
i've been working most of the summer..but i've been able to catch good flicks...transformers for example...(and no i don't care about how you feel about the new looks of them)the simpsons movie to name a couple.
Fluke (Guest) on 08/03/2007 11:06 am
Ordered some tickets for a heavy metal concert. (The black crusade down the NEC) And spend some days down the zoo. My bro works there and ive been hanging out with him.
Not too shabby, nice and relaxed.
Uncle_Sham (Guest) on 08/03/2007 11:29 am
i had a big shit yesterday, it was exciting.
briny bill (Guest) on 08/03/2007 1:42 pm
i saw friday the 13th jason takes mahatten for the first time
Ronin S (Guest) on 08/03/2007 2:07 pm
I've been working all this summer. I just finished college, doing a science major, and landed an awesome job at this research facility. It's in the middle of nowhere and I haven't been able to do anything that fun, like go on a trip.
Heath (Guest) on 08/03/2007 5:24 pm
Work, work, work. That's my summer. :( And some of my friends got to go to Comic-con, sans ME. And to top it all off, now I want a "bomb pop."
Anonymous (Guest) on 08/03/2007 8:25 pm
@Uncle_Sham: Your a dumbass, go be a troll somewhere else.
jesse (Guest) on 08/03/2007 11:41 pm
I went to Hawaii and miraculously did NOT get a sun burn! I had to be super paranoid about the sun the whole time but it paid off in the end. August 24th is my 21st birthday and of course, the Penny Arcade Expo, so that should be a drunken blur. woo
Brian (Guest) on 08/04/2007 11:48 am
Rog, you might not believe this and I feel it's a sign of the apocalypse myself, but, I was in a Safeway in Portland, OR yesterday and in the snack food section (I swear to God) there is a new beef jerky called JEFF FOXWORTHY beef jerky. It has his picture and everything on the package. Check at a Vons store down there if you don't believe me. I'm still coming to grips with this. Guess I better start going back to church.
Aks (Guest) on 08/04/2007 8:23 pm
I went to Canada! First time outta the country. 10 days in the wilderness. Jumped off a 40 foot cliff into the water. That was sweet. Rained everyday too. Fuck you Canada. But other than rain it was awesome.
The Squatch (Guest) on 08/04/2007 10:49 pm
Spiffy: Went to comicon
Doing: Playing way too much Kingdom of Loathing
Shows: I saw a local production of Rocky Horror Picture Show
Kevin (Guest) on 08/05/2007 6:03 am
I picked up Monster Squad. It's even better than I imagined. I haven't watched the special features yet, but they sound great.
Unfortunately, seeing Wolfman get kicked in the nards in to comfort of my own home has been the highlight of my summer.
doctor dumbass (Guest) on 08/05/2007 12:43 pm
I juat got back from a cruise to ALaska!
panther3k (Guest) on 08/05/2007 8:44 pm
I just got back from a great trip to Colorado. I'd never seen the mountains before and they were amazing. Now it's back to 100 degree days, mosquitoes, and work in St. Louis.
Jake (Guest) on 08/05/2007 11:22 pm
I went to the Ludwig drum factory in Monroe, N.C. and watched the Drum making process! Being a drummer, it was pure bliss to visit the factory!
Stevetothepast (Guest) on 08/06/2007 12:17 pm
I've been working on my code, , damn guess I need to keep working
Stevetothepast (Guest) on 08/06/2007 3:55 pm
Man, I was starting to get worried -ROG- got eaten by those mutant ants.
Protoclown (Guest) on 08/06/2007 8:30 pm
Dude, we totally forgot to drink our "Cocaine" drinks and take pictures! Mine is still in your fridge, dammit!
Sean (Guest) on 08/07/2007 10:31 pm
All I can say is: "The Goonies"/"Back to the Future" double feature, plus "The Big Lebowski" two days later at the New Beverly Cinema! RoG, you have to check the theater out. I mean, you live right down the street!
Hammi (Guest) on 08/08/2007 6:24 pm

Actually, that would be A for Aquabats.
Connor (Guest) on 08/24/2007 10:46 pm
That's^ awkward...
Anyway, I saw my girlfriend (that I met on myspace) for the first time in person :D Best two weeks ever. She lives in Virginia, and me in California, but I'm moving there soon.
