Fridays I'm in love (with Fridays)
Apr. 22nd, 2011 05:03 pmWhen I related the earlier story of my economic disagreement with my co-worker to the family at dinner time, the Emperor in his infinite wisdom posited that people should be paid more money so they can spend more money. When even a six-year-old understands that trickle-down systems don't work... *sigh*
Now that the Vancouver con has come and gone, I'm turning my eyes and fannish attention to the upcoming Chicago one in August. Specifically, making a vid to hopefully win me another gift certificate. (Yes, it's a gross application of a wonderful artform, but Mama wants an SGA windbreaker without having to give those razzer-frazzers any money for it.) I went to my trusty list of vid ideas, pared it down to Stargate-themed ones, and further down to ones that I thought might be viable winners (no meta presentations on unexamined colonialism and/or warmongering as entertainment, or starring people who won't be there, and so on).
I still have 45 items on the list. Eep!
I think the closest I will come to making a decision is finally buying a vidding laptop over the weekend. Wish me luck!
