On my very first day, and in fact my very first hour at AnthroCon, I partook of a familiar, annual, rite of passage. Waiting in line to register as I was too stupid to pre-reg this year and thus had to spend time waiting in line pondering how stupid I was. Fortunately, there were a number of high-spirited characters who helped make those three hours fly right by. From people throwing balloons around, to friends meeting up with old acquaintances, there was no lack of fun in the registration line.

Among those already getting into the OMG Aliens theme was Richard Renard, aka  nerdytigerfox and his friend Little Richard... or was that REALLY just a Brain Slug disguised in a fursuit atop his head? Remember, furries, switch to a garlic-based shampoo if you don't want to get us all assimilated!
