I ended up going to dinner with one of them and heard some fascinating stories. One of the things I love most about these conventions is that everyone is so amazingly friendly. I love sci-fi fans for that reason. It\u2019s always like hanging out with long-lost friends, even though you\u2019ve generally just met the people. I\u2019ve found it with <strong>Scapers<\/strong>, as well as <strong>Gaters at VanCon<\/strong>.

First, Colin put thread in his mouth and pulled it out his ear &#8211; I barely opened my eyes during that &#8211; and then he called up audience volunteers.

He introduced a few stunt people and had them demonstrate a fight. He then brought out the <strong>stunt doubles<\/strong> for <strong>Joe Flanigan<\/strong> and <strong>Rachel Luttrell<\/strong>. Sorry I did not get pictures of that. They demonstrated some different moves with the sticks. I never really thought about how hard it must be to use the sticks before, but after that, I definitely have a new respect for them! They also used a butter knife to demonstrate twelve ways of disarming a knife attacker. I love that most of them ended with the attacker being stabbed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Finally, it came time for the <strong>Creation Entertainment Karaoke Party<\/strong>. For this, I mostly hung out with other fans and chatted about loads of Stargate convention stuff, like how great it was.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Calibri'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Calibri';\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\"> Brianna went up and sang a couple of songs, as well. As well, I got a few pictures with <strong>Colin Cunningham<\/strong> before he left for the night. I gave him my card and introduced myself. He was incredibly nice &#8211; not that I was expecting differently. He\u2019s a really cool guy. Also, not to spoil anything, but a certain someone did a dance to <strong><em>Time of My Life<\/em><\/strong>, and I may have (definitely did) get it on video. WHR wil post that as a stand-alone report SOON!.
