Sarah is four months along so it won’t be long before another set of little feet pitter patters into their lives.
Wishing both of them all the best!

For Sale: I-ManiCon 2007 T-Shirts
T-Shirts for this year’s I-ManiCon are now ready to order! This year, the very talented Rain, a fan from Australia, graciously volunteered her services and created this absolutely adorable graphic.
Now is that cute or what? If you wish to see a larger and more detailed view of the picture, I’ve placed a copy in the Fan Art Gallery. Just click the button at the bottom of the picture to expand it to full size.
Happily, you don’t have to attend the con to get your own t-shirt. T-shirts; as well as other merchandise like mugs, mouse pads, pins, and more; are now available for order online. Laura, an Oklahoma fan, has made ordering easy by setting up a store at Zazzle.com. However, the easiest way to find the store is to go directly to Laura’s website and click on the moving Zazzle picture.
Now go check out the assortment of cool merchandise!
“Standoff” Returns This Friday
After a long hiatus, Craig Silverstein’s show, Standoff, is returning to our TV screens. It’s been moved to Fridays…not a good sign. However, cast member Michael Cudlitz tells the Chicago Tribune that it hasn’t been cancelled yet. Will it find its audience on Friday nights? I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
To catch up on episodes you might have missed, visit the Standoff MySpace page.
Watch the new episodes starting this Friday, June 8, at 9/8 c on Fox. As usual, check your local listings for the time and channel in your area.
I-Man Collectables Up for Auction
The I-Maniacs Fan Club has some really cool items for bid on eBay right now. Included are a couple of authentic clothing items that were given to crew members of The Invisible Man TV show. The auctions end June 3, 2007, so get your bids in if these items interest you!
I-ManiCon 2007 Website
If you’re itching to come to the I-ManiCon this summer, you’ll be interested in knowing that the official website is now up. I can’t take credit for doing it this year as I had to bow out due to time constraints. This film project keeps me busy! But, thanks go to Deb, the I-Maniacs Fan Club webmaster, for taking over the job.
This year you can find the con website at the I-Maniacs Fan Club website. The direct link is http://imaniacs.org/cons_events/imanicon2007/index.htm.
Last year, Vincent Ventresca, Paul Ben-Victor, Eddie Jones, and Mike McCafferty were able to attend. It was such a treat to have them there! This year, Joyce, the fan club president, tells us that all four guys are available to come again. Of course, that could change if they have to work, but I’m hoping that all four will be able to make it again this year. No word on whether Shannon Kenny can come yet, but I’m hopeful. It would be so cool to have the entire cast at the con this year.
The registration form is up at the site and the cost of attendance is $40 for the one-day con. Just print out and fill in the form and send it in with your money. The admission price does not include meals. Those are optional. But I highly recommend that you attend the dinner also because you’ll get to dine with the cast. We always take them out to dinner as a token of our appreciation for taking time out of their busy schedules to visit with us.
If you’re sitting on the fence wondering if you should go or not, I can assure you that you’ll find the experience worth your while. It’s a great bunch of fans getting together with a great cast.
Time is running out. There are less than nine weeks to the con, which will take place on July 21, 2007. So get your registration in ASAP!
Hope to see you there!

“On The Lot” Announces Their 50 Semi-Finalists
Back in December I blogged about the upcoming reality show On The Lot. Now after months of waiting, it’s hard to believe the show begins airing next week on Fox.
Out of 12,000 videos that were submitted to the show, only 50 made it to the semi-finals. Wow. Talk about tough competition. So today, as I was scanning the list of semi-finalists’ names for the first time, I was thrilled to see that one name in particular had made it through: Karla Jean Davis.
Karla is a very talented 25-year old tape operator from Altanta, Georgia. I’ve only had time to watch a very small portion of all those submissions and, fortunately, Karla’s was one of them. I was immediately impressed with her talent and right away added her film to my favorites list. Well, it looks like Steven Spielberg has taken note of her talent also and has chosen her for the top 50. I’m tickled pink for her! I should mention that Karla is also a blog mailing list subscriber, so if I seem a bit biased, I admit it. I totally am. Way to go, Karla! Congratulations on making it into the semi-finals. I’ll be rooting for you!
Be sure to check out Karla’s film submission.
On The Lot airs its two audition rounds next Tuesday, May 22, at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT and Thursday, May 24, at 9:30 p.m. ET/PT.
