INFO: Baltimore Comic-Con *UPDATE*

I doubt I'll hit any of the panels, except for the DC Comics: A Look Ahead at 12pm, but I'll definitely be wandering the floor, looking for interesting comics and passing out business cards. Hope to put some faces to blogs, too. That's a vague approximation of what I look like there on the left, for anyone that wants to play Where's Waldo Guy. Just don't sneak up on me, especially if I've bashed your work. I'll…

CBC Quickees: 9/8/05

In the introductory notes for each of them, it's suggested that students allocate approx. 12-15 hours/week to the readings, discussions and assignments. That's 36-45 hours/week?!?! Where does that time come from exactly?:-OSomeone's about to get a crash course in Time Management for Overextended Dummies.
