We are flying back from London to Orlando and hopping on another plane three hours later bound for LAX. We will be there for all of Sunday's fun and the TPiR and Jep! tapings.

Please say "Hi" if you see me and I promise to do the same. We should all wear name tags. lol.

Yeah, what he said. This edition of the Congress is too good to pass up.

I sent the payment through Paypal with my info. As soon as I get confirmation from Paul, I will post that here. I registered without even looking at the deadline. Pretty smart of me, not.

I now see the 7/15 deadline. I do not think it will be a problem, but I will make sure and ask Paul about the deadline.

Forget the celebs; hearing Bob Stewart speak will be worth 10 times the price of admission alone.

Randy: next year Merv, 'kay? Or Monty will do.

Klauss: you're in charge of getting J.W. one of these years.

Randy: will anyone be taping this (like a professional ENG crew)?

Clementson: still working on thawing out Goodson.

<BZZZZ>

No, I'm sorry...But you were soooo close! It was *NOT* Charlie Tuna, of "Scrabble" fame, but what Charlie HAD for lunch!

The correct answer was a 2-day old Taco Bean Burrito!

Control goes back to the red team...

Seriously, if I had a little extra spending cash, I'd make a beeline out there (I've got a free round trip for frequent flier miles, it's just all of those other expenses I don't have freebies for!)

Hopefully, if they allow videocameras to roll, someone will stock up on tapes & batteries and have that tape rolling from start to finish -- I'm sure there will be plenty of us who would pay for at least the highlights.

Fascinating man and my vote for the single greatest game creator ever.

Monty's an easier "get", through Fred.

There wil be cameras, but for financial reasons there will be no pro crew.

And break up his weekly card game with Disney?

I received an e-mail confirmation back from Paul Bailey from the PayPal I sent him this morning confirming my registration. If you want to register, you should do it asap.

Also, if you book at the Burbank Hilton hotel there is a discount on registration. I ended up going to Priceline and getting $60 per night at the Glendale Hilton about 8 Miles away. I am on a very strict budget.

Did you get an e-mail from Paul or just a receipt on where you paid him. I just want to make sure that you are definitely confirmed before I attempt to register. This sounds like such an awesome event. I am visiting LA anyway in September and I just can't see spending that kind of dough so close to each other, but I am sure that it would definitely be worth it.

The e-mail was from Paul personally. I asked him in the Pay Pal screen to e-mail me back with confirmation which he did. He said I am definitely confirmed. If you have any other questions please feel free to e-mail me at timerika@bellsouth.net

Not gonna go there. Wouldn't be prudent.

I just received another e-mail regarding registration for the Game Show Congress. The form has been updated with a new deadline of August 1st. So get your registrations in if you plan on going.

There is a slight bummer, however. I've just learned that Bob Hilton will be unable to attend. My source is indisputable: Bob Hilton himself.

What is Bob up to these days, and don't say "about six-foot-one"?

Last I saw a few years ago, he's been acting more of a househusband and has gotten into writing. He also wrote a book in 2002 which is presently out of print called "Weekend Dad."
