Mehehe didn't know he was from the USA. My mistake. But there are the USA and Canadian conventions you can visit as well. Not when you're in the military with little money to spend flying out to random conventions.  |

Well jeez...what good is it to be in the Air Force if you don't get to fly around to cons for free?  |

Wow, a through the mail success from him! Great! Nice pic! Yeah, took three attempts but I finally got him, though I am happy to get him. (I just can't muster up any emotion as I'm drained from the FX Show) Just wish that he'd actually use a pen other than a black one because it's the magic of the scanner that really brings out the sig. |

I used to send silver pens along with my darker photos and asked them to use those. |

I've been toying with the idea of sending silver sharpies along which tend to be more cost effective than to send out the paint pens that I have. The down side to the sharpie is that they're not that reliable to begin with. They dry out really quick it seems and they also don't have the ink consistency that I'd like to have when getting an autograph. |

Well he's going to tell you about some Japanese type pen that I've never seen available. I have tried to use Sharpie Silver pen, but I agree that after you use it once you might as well throw it away, and you take your chances to use it to begin with. Now Sharpie makes a Silver poster pen that rocks, but it's expensive and not the type you can just mail out. I've found them at Wal-Mart, but you have to buy a gold/silver combo.
Who is the blonde in your new pic?
Mike

Who is the blonde in your new pic? Mike Avoid Sharpie's Paint Pens like the plague! I thought they were the greatest thing too, but the ink fouls up in no time like the silver sharpies. It's gotten to the point where the paint and the other chemicals aren't mixing properly, and it just comes out nasty. What I use for paint pens are Uchida Deco Paint Pens. They retail for about $3.50 each at Michael's Arts and Crafts, but the week after Christmas, they were having them 50% off, so I bought a lot of the gold and silver ones, and they look great on photos. They've got over 30 different colors, so you can basically find a color that'll go with the picture. As for who the blond is, that's Jaime King.  |

Didn't know that about the Sharpie paint pen. I used it once and gave it to the actress afterwards. But I did like the result from the pen, especially compared to a regular silver sharpie.
I'll have to go down to Michael's and check out the Uchida.
