I dropped by the GBR Dealership again today, and overall sales numbers have been great since the grand opening. I snagged a coyote-brown buggy on opening night, and that particular model is no longer available for purchase. The above image shows the number of remaining buggies, which is accurate as of August 16th, 10:00 am. Goober also asked me to mention that the demo model of the coyote-brown buggy, complete with windshield stickers, is currently available for bidding in auctions. It is a one-of-a-kind model that belongs in any serious collector's garage, and I have included relevant auction information below. Good luck bidding! https://webapps.prod.there.com/items/view?ItemId=6298653 Seller's comments about this item **THIS IS THE ONLY COPY THAT WILL BE SOLD.** The designer will retain one personal copy, and the buyer will own the **only publicly sold copy**.

    The GBR dealership event was a lot of fun last night, and I was able to purchase a brown buggy I had picked out a day earlier. Saw lots of familiar faces and enjoyed some random conversations with many in attendance. As I said before, I was really impressed with the quality of the buggies and dealership itself. Congrats and a perfect '10 , Goober! Speaking of random, you'll see an assortment of pictures posted below. Many of these images were taken at there events, including T-Con, a birthday party, and other planned get-togethers. I have also included a few snapshots taken at  Words and Lyrics Cafe,  my usual hangout. As they say, the people make the place.... let's keep it that way. I also wanted to mention my watch-party event next Thursday, August 13th at Words and Lyrics Cafe.  The Green Bay Packers will take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in a preseason match at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh. Doors open at 6:30 pm, and the game begins at 7:00 pm. It will ...

  I had a chance to visit the Nitro Neighborhood recently and met up with both Goober_Goalie and hotchilli. Goober's GBR buggy dealership is slated to host an opening event on Saturday, August 8th, from 9:00 pm to 10:00 pm Eastern time. While taking a look, I decided to give Goober a little extra pub via my blog. This is a sneak preview of his dealership, which is located on Aurora Island's North-East side. Goober graciously allowed me to do a walk through and take photos, and I came away quite impressed with his buggies as well as the facility. An interesting takeaway is that Goober is offering a buggy-exchange program; after you purchase one, you can exchange it for a different buggy provided the two are at the same price point. Be sure to inquire about this offer at the launch event if you would like to learn more. I think it's a cool way to stand out from the competition and give shoppers a little something extra. You are also able to buy one of 13 exclusive GBR buggies...

Mission accomplished! I had a great time attending several entertaining sci-fi events, watch parties, and presentations during the week of T-CON. When I first arrived at the conference center with a friend, we aimlessly wandered the corridors for a bit since it was our first visit there. I even joked that we had been teleported into  Backrooms , only with lighter-colored walls and less furniture. lol The opening reception was fun, and we talked about which sci-fi books and films had a big impact on our lives. My first choice was Star Wars , and I saw the film when I was only 8 years old. Jessica6 was more than a little surprised at this bit of trivia, but I can still vividly remember that awesome opening with a star destroyer chasing Princess Leia's spacecraft. Afterwards, I went into another room and voted for my favorite sci-fi movies from the 1960s to the 2000s. I also have to give a nod to John Carpenter's The Thing , which was not on the 1980s board. It featured awesome sp...
