Many of them were selling their own, but I think several just gave stuff away photos and signatures. What was so memorable was... we're in there milling around... running into some fellow HoT'ers... And Robert Reilly and JG Hertzler (I think it was Gowron and Martok... can't remember for certain...) walk in, having just spent god knows how long getting into makeup, and shout something along the lines of, "HONOR - AND - GLORY, ALWAYS!" to a resounding hail of "Qa'PLAH!" replies :guffaw: :happyjump:


That. Is. AWESOME.

I swear, Star Trek - from the writers to the actors to the fans - is just the freakin' best.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it was General Martok and Gowron because JG Hertzler has such a recognizable Klingon voice, that's what I remember :D

Looking back now, I can appreciate how crazy it was that it was cancelled and yet no one even swore or stormed out. Us highbrow trekkies curtailed our righteous rage and we all (trekkies AND actors) behaved in a very Starfleet fashion. It was most enjoyable! (Also hangin' with my peeps elessar and Distracted)

Sorry but the reports are gonna stay short for a bit. It's kind of a pain in the ass to do them while q & a is going on, and as you can see, my phone's auto-fill fights me on the spelling.
