In my head I always pronounced it Heart Song Cougar for some reason, but she explained to me that's not it.

Oh yah, she explained that it's Heart Sonic (her dog's name) GR for Golden Retriever.

Of course, no problem.     With your people vanquished, you must be quite lonely.  Of course, you can make more of you....hmmm.

Very true.  Have you ever considered a career in vampirism?

Delicious people are for cuddling and hugging, not for chomping on necks...by me at least...I know you can't help yourself, being a Rampire and all...

I wish he had said how he got Thomas. I was the one with the fox tail, hello kitty black shirt, my hair is an odd mix of color, blonde, pink, organe, I was at the front of the line for the book signing and the frist question asked during Q & A. If you are looking for me I'm on FB as Jessica Kitsune Klass.

Hi Kitsune!  I was in line right behind you guys!  (Black hair, black leather pants, Red Court t-shirt).

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to thank everyone for attending MarsCon. Hope you had a good time despite our little screw-up in the schedule by putting Jim in such small rooms at the beginning. Never knew he would be that popular.

Please let me know what you liked about our con and what you didn't like. We are always trying to improve.

Do you have an online survey or anything we can fill out? 

I had lovely time, by the way.

That seems to be a common response to the kind of crowd Jim can bring in.  :D
But that was one of the best things with the con-the quick reaction to the crowd and moving Jim to the ballroom for everything else.

My biggest complaint was that the hotel temp was hot which was exacerbated with the large number of people in small spaces.

 :D  :D I was cold a lot.  I must have no circulation.

 :D  You're skinnier than me.  ;D You feel cold more.

Plus I'm more acclimated to the cold from living in New England for over 10 years.  My mom still uses the fireplace when the temp in Texas gets down to 60ish.
