A word from the comfy chair

As the sun sets on our pirate ship, the galaxy calms. Tribal drums in the darkness sound a tattoo that is nearly eclipsed by warbling toads and determined crickets who chip away at the quiet. Unicorns shyly peek out of enchanted forests, while fairies twitter maniacally at the werewolves they startle from moon worship. On the dark side of Mars, only the brave venture forth as creatures formerly restricted to childhood fantasies and fears reclaim the landscape.

The monster under the bed is real. Now, the wild things come out to play.

Join us for another therapeutic escapade at MarsCon 2006: Things that Go Bump in the Night. It's just what the doctor ordered to cure the winter blahs. I'll be acting as MarsCon's "Comfy Chair" ("Chair" is just too officious for me). Ably assisting me will be our wonderful "Masquerade Fairy" Nicky Luckes and a cast of volunteers, including several new-comers who are full of energy, enthusiasm, and ideas to make your stay at MarsCon fun and memorable.

As you can see from other pages here, we are already shaping up for a grand time. With our theme this year, "Things that Go Bump in the Night," we will pay homage to the creatures of fantasy, fiction, and horror that we all know and love -- vampires, werewolves, aliens, zombies, slayers, ghosts, ghouls, goblins, skeletons, sand people, sand worms... and scariest of all, the fairy. There will be dancing and singing, great guests with insider stories, panel discussions of every sort, art that will take your breath away, cool stuff to buy, popcorn and movies that will keep you on the edge of your seat, amazing science exhibits, new and long-time friends, challenging games... punch and pie. You gotta have punch and pie! See you there!
