Please excuse our nearly three-month absence from posting, O Vast Readership! No good excuses; just busy and perhaps feeling a bit under-inspired.

But this week we experienced two major nerdgasms!

The first one involves Google+ (G+ among the cognoscenti). Jon was not only invited early in the process, he was able to log on pretty much immediately. On the other hand, it took most of the week for Marian to first successfully receive an invitation, and then once that arrived, to get G+ to let her in.

We are enjoying exploring the new paradigm. It seems a better solution for us, at least so far, than Facebook. But who knows? Perhaps sometime in the unknowable future we will be dissing it with ironic commentary, too.

The second exciting news of the week was of course that the San Diego Comic-Con has released its event schedules for the four days of the Con. Preview night is Wednesday, July 20. We will be there picking up our passes and registering for next year, and then we will be back bright and early Thursday, July 21, to savor one of our favorite alternate realities.

We can usually be found attending various TV show panels, but will also be cruising the convention floor looking for oddities and inspirations. Give us a shout out if you will be there, too!
