I posted a pretty much full casting list about...17 pages back, but didn't provide any pictures.  Here goes, then for the main male characters (I'm still going back and forth on the Senior Council, so they're absent from this list):

Harry: Zachary Levi (for early 30s Harry)


Thomas: Matt Bomer


Morgan: Stephen Lang


Michael: Tom Selleck or Liam Neeson


Marcone: Edward Norton


Nicodemus: Robert Knepper (I'm drawing a blank on how old Nic is supposed to look)


Sanya: Mykel Shannon Jenkins


Fr. Forthill: Ron Rifkin


Mort: David H. Lawrence III


Butters: Breckin Meyer


Kincaid: Christian Slater

Yep, all good now!

You da man, Iago!

I'm still getting a lot of random slowdowns.  Most of the time everything is quite zippy, but sometimes a page will take ages to load, and I've gotten a number of connection/server error messages.  They apply across the board, no matter the browser I'm using, IE7 at work with a good connection, Firefox 6 or 7 at home with a faster connection, or on my phone.  Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to the slowdown/nonoperable periods--that is, they happen randomly throughout the day and night, which, unless the server is malfunctioning, doesn't seem to imply that the server is being overloaded.

Who knows?

I will bow to the better judgement of Iago and the likes of Count Shecknara.   

Who says there's a difference? Obviously, if you were a casting director, it would be at least a little about how you see them. I've cast a great many characters in my head, and can watch the books play out like a movie with my cast in my imagination. (Even though some of them are too old or passed away.) That makes my cast my perfect cast.

I always saw Katee Sackhoff as Gard.

Eh, I see Tricia Helfer more as Gard than Katee Sackhoff.  Hmm, I don't seem to recall Gard wearing a slinky red dress, though... 

For Molly, how about this woman? 

In fact, don't tell Bob, but right now am trying to decide whether to turn him in for an Android vs. iPhone in February when my 2 year contract is up...

Going off topic, I made the Blackberry-Android switch in March after having a Blackberry for three years.  Absolutely LOVE my Android phone!

All right, here's the dealio:

We've got a reservation at Tir na Nog for 15 people at 5:00 under the name of Harry Dresden.  Here's the website, if anyone is interested: http://www.tirnanogbaltimore.com/homepage.php.  They've got directions and stuff about parking on there.  All good information for those of us (such as myself) who are not familiar with Baltimore and will be driving in.

On a rather amusing side note, it's pretty funny to call an Irish bar and have someone with an almost incomprehensible Asian accent answer the phone.  That was a fun five minutes trying to communicate the reservation details before she handed the phone off to a manager, who spoke (and understood) English just fine... 

Reminds me of when I went to Spain a few years back--spent a couple nights frequenting an Irish pub in Madrid that was owned and operated by a Romanian family.

Anyhoo, look forward to seeing everyone there!

(and by the way, hopefully I won't be *the* loser that shows up at 5:00 and is stuck drinking by himself for an hour before anyone else shows up... 

All right, sorry it's taken me so long to get back in on this (the last five days have been extremely hectic workwise)!

I've updated the attendance list.

Looks like we've got two foodalcoholization venues proposed:
-Pratt Street Alehouse (downside is that it's close to the Con and might be packed)
-Some place in Fell's Point (downside is that we don't have a specific place picked out)

If we can get a place chosen today, I'll call and try to make a reservation tonight.

Which place do y'all want to eat and drink ourselves into a stupor at?  And what time should I make the reservation for?
