Reviews
Bill reviewed SVCC as the Dealer's room was well-stocked, Aatheus also enjoyed it - except for the Costume show; then Bill reviewed 'Pacific Rim Uprising' as reasonably good fun, worth matinee & Carole reported that it had no easter eggs
Aatheus reviewed seeing John de Lancie at SVCC as brief, but satisfying
Brad reviewed season 8 of 'Walking Dead' as it's been uneven, but the finale was decent & reviewed the audio book reading of 'Dracula' by Dreamscape Media as interesting & recommended
Ric reviewed the SF production of a musical, 'Head over Heels' as he enjoyed it & it has music by the GoGos; then reviewed the 'Lost in Space' relaunch as interesting & reviewed Hulu's 'Runaways' as pretty close to the comic & reviewed that last season of Archer he was in a coma & that this season he is still in the coma in a different setting
we had auctions
we adjourned at 9:01
Rumor of the week was that 'Dave's got Goodwill behind him'
