Hello everyone! The time you’ve been waiting for is now here! Please enjoy our wonderful recollections of ECCC. (You can also enjoy our visual recollections in convenient picture form. Please click here to check them out:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/talesfromtheparentsbasement/sets/ )

We start off our nostalgic journey with a great overview of the Con. We talk about Spence’s awesome drawings, the burrito story, and then enjoy some interviews some of the regular folk of ECCC! (“Regular” might be a stretch on some of these characters….) We even have a Joey interview and interviews with our two first customers, David and Colin!

Then we talk about sharing tables with:
