I had never been to any convention before......this one was closer to me than any other one I was aware of.....so I had to try and make it.  And I did!  One of the best weekends of my life.  Connor is wonderful.....just a great guy.  I got to talk with him several times over the course of the day too.......that was nice!  He may not remember me....but I certainly will never forget him.

I can finally add something to this thread.  I met him.....last week in Tulsa.

I had never been to any convention before......this one was closer to me than any other one I was aware of.....so I had to try and make it.  And I did!  One of the best weekends of my life.  Connor is wonderful.....just a great guy.  I got to talk with him several times over the course of the day too.......that was nice!  He may not remember me....but I certainly will never forget him.

Thank you, good to hear you've had a great time and the chance to meet him. So what is the best adjective to describe him ?

Sorry, that's more than one word!  I just enjoyed my time with him.

I liked Inga's note that Connor really seems to have his priorities straight.  His family is by far the most important thing to him and he generously shares his family pictures with his fans.

Meeting him has to be one of the highlights of any Convention.

I'm back. I had a lot of technical problems with my Internet since march (I get DSL and wireless lan (a birthday present from my brothers) and after Installation I had no access to the Connor Trinneer website, what a mess). Okay, a few minutes ago, I tried it again, and suddenly it works (thank God). A lot of time is passed. I started my new job, and now is my six months "testing-time"? (in German Probezeit) it's over in few days. Whow the time runs very fast.

I would like to thank for all the Birthday greetings. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I have a lot of to tell about the fedcon and Connor Trinneer. I met him really. On Saturday morning, before he had his Panel. Yes, a dream comes true. I speaked to him at the bar, he ordered something to drink (of course no alcohol). I was very nervous. And asked him, that he is collecting coins (Months ago, when I worked in my old bank, I bought a 10 Euro special coin from the european Module of the ISS, and sent it to his Autograph address, but it came return to sender). He was very surprised about this question. And I gave him the coin and showed him the notice with the facts about the coin. He said "thank you" and he asked me about my name. And then he huged me. I asked him, if I could make a photo. He  said "of course". An employee made two photos, but just one was okay. He looked, if it was okay and went to his panel. It was a very special moment. And I hope, I'll never forget it.

A few hours later he made a photosession, were everyone could buy for 15 Euros a photo with him, of course I made one. But I think, he didn't remember about me. Just as, when he signed my autograph. Okay there were so many people there, but......

In his panel he showed us few pictures from his son. He's very cute. And he told us about Stargate and of course about Enterprise. And that he was very proud to die.

Okay that's it. Better late than never. I'm glad, that my Internet works again.

See ya!
