I’ve met Londo at a few Dragoncon years back and he was a great guy. We had gotten married a few weeks before going to a DC on year.

During our routine walk of fame, we went to Londo’s table and we were making small talk with other people in line. Peter J. overheard us and when we got to him, he congratulated us and said all kinds of words of congratulations and insisted on a free autograph with a very long kind paragraph. We have it framed in the master bedroom.

Max Eilerson from Crusade was beside him and also took a couple minutes congratulating us. Always like Max on Crusade, he was my favorite.

The next few DCs, we would swing by Peter’s table and he always remembered us as the “married kids”.

We were able to see G’Kar at one Con and it was most enjoyable to listen to him at panels. It was hard to tell if he and Peter were playing a game or actually didn’t like each other very much. Andreas struck me as a genuine person who liked acting for acting and money didn’t matter that much based on some of his experiences.

My first DC visit occurred when Claudia Christian was there and the line was murder. She ought to have gotten a medal for the heat, noise, and writing cramps. When we got up to her, she took a break for a minute for water and to breathe. Nobody could blame her. She was only gone a minute or two it seemed. She came back and was very apologetic. We talked for a min and got an autograph. I got my photo with her and just before my wife snpped the photo, she jumped up and gave me a hug.

I was surprised in a very good way. I’m glad it was film and buried in an album. I looked silly and was rather overweight too.

G’Kar and Londo started off good and truly became great. I think they both know the opportunity they had with those characters.

Went for a walk around the Mall in DC one day with a friend of mine ~ i was on a 10 day break from the military down at Fort Benning, and had been working there, so I went up to visit witht he old gang.

We ran into Thurgood Marshall ~ he also regularly walked around the Mall.

That's less common these days ~ too many people would be jumping on them ~ but you can always find a major politician somewhere in downtown DC when Congress is in session ~ kind of like a cheap scificon.
