Sounds like a very successful trip. Are you going to be at game this next week? Also, can you tell me more about Frump?

Are you planning on getting the new Animal Crossing game? I'm thinking of getting it for Morgan for Christmas.

Btw, the gold chains worn around the necks of the Royalty are each about $500,000 dollars to make. Then compare them to the crown jewels and you start to get an idea of just how expensive those items are. It's crazy to even think about them!

Not sure about game due to I need to make more hours back up at work.
As for Animal Crossing, we have the new on for the Wii, it was my b-day gift! I love it! Very very kid friendly, there is no death or destruction (not that those are bad things for a kid to learn about somehow) and its mostly a social/collecting game. It has animal neightbors.....for example my favorite neighbor right now is a bunny with a Princess personality (there are archtypes like Funny, Grumpy, Princess, Sporty, etc.) who is light blue with white polka dots all over her. Her name is Francine. Her and my gal, Snuggles, get along very well. I can go bug catching, fishing, and as soon as winter sets in there will be snowmen to make. yeah, I'm a little addicted.
I know it is crazy to think how expensive they are! Your brain almost does not get it. It was just my first impression walking in the room with the crowns that wow, they look unreal, like costume stuff.

The game of James's you mention is probably "FRUP" - there was a period of several years where he threatened bodily harm on anyone asking how the development was going, but I hope it will make an appearance now he's been sucked back into the industry.

Ah, Frup.....well at least I was close. It sounds like quite a bit of fun.

You mean you are Andy? Lol....yeah I would love to move there....we'll see in the next year how much me and John can save up here (cost of living in Arizona is pretty low since no one wants to live in urban sprawl in the desert.....blecch).

Yes, that would be me! :-)

At worst we should be able to compromise and catch up at Gen-Con!
Mind you, deserts are cool (but not as good as desserts) and Phoenix is where Medium is set so its all good.

I was nice to meet you and see John again. I'm glad you enjoyed the trip. And if you come back again I'll see what I can do to find some hedgehog crisps.
