Indianapolis, Indiana, InConJunction
Posted July 2nd, 2008 by Howard Tayler
In just six hours I leave the cozy cocoon of my home here in suburbotropolitan Orem, Utah and head for Indianapolis. I’ll have only spotty connectivity (no laptop these days, and I’m more productive without one).
If you live within driving distance of Indianapolis, you owe it to yourself, to me, and to science-fiction fandom to head over to InConJunction. After all, you’re reading the blog underneath a science-fiction comic strip on the internet — you’re already nerdy enough to get passing marks at a sci-fi convention. But because it’s Schlock Mercenary you’re reading, you’re also hip enough stand out. Yeah, you’re not a demographic… you’re a demolitiongraphic.
I have no idea what “demolitiongraphic” means. It does sound cool, though.
Anyway, come to InConJunction. I’ll have books, warning signs, mousemats, Tagon Pins, T-shirts, and of course I’ll be banging out free sketches, ’cause that’s how I roll. I’ll also have the penultimate draft of The Teraport Wars cover art, and a couple of copies of Sandra’s book Hold On To Your Horses for you to handle and drool over.
Here is the full list of programming. And now, I need to finish packing…

A demolitiongraphic is a pie chart showing the exact composition and proportions of a plastic explosive.

A demolitiongraphic is a pretty picture of what happens after “Ominous Hummmmm”

I’ll be passing through Indianapolis…a different weekend. They always schedule these conventions so inconveniently. Sniff.

demolitiongraphic: the limited edition reproduction printing in high resolution of an explosion.
I am privy to many originals. They make me happy.

So, I think this is fate. I’ve been wanting to meet you since I discovered the internet, and your comic five years ago.
In the mail today I unexpectedly got my last paycheck from my old job that I had no idea I was getting. So I had already planned my budget for this month without allowing for anything extra. And while I sat down wondering what to do with all this extra money I clicked over to your page and found this blog. So instead of sitting around my house all day tomorrow, I’m going to be getting up early and driving three hours to this con.
See you tomorrow, Howard.

our EOD just demolitioned 2000 lbs of captured loot and outdated US munitions.
BOOM!
Happy 4th:-D

Shhh. Don’t tell anyone where I am. I just practiced some creative demolitiongraphic creation, and the fire department is looking for the “artist”.

Live and direct from InCon. :)
If you’ve never been, it’s a nice little con for checking out panels on everything silly, scientific or somewhere inbetween. Or just relaxing and meeting (or catching up with) people. And *Howard’s* here! What more do you want?

And happy demolitiongraphics, Mike! Hi from me and Mark.
