Sex show: Day 2:klingons and lap dances


So this brings us to day 2 of the sex show. We got up bright and early at 7:30 am. We decided to cab it to the show. It was gonna be a long ass day. Lukilly i didn't feel tired. Started the day off with an assembly line. We filled up about 500 bags with flyers and condoms so that we could hand them out to people who visited our booth. The show opened at 11. We began to realize that Patrick was cool and had great taste in music. For such a young guy he had a great range in music. We started calling him Roadhouse after that. We made the rounds again and when Rob came out as Santa again i had my pic taken with him. A bit later we ran into 3 people dressed like klingons. We thought they were at the wrong show. Rob got them to agree to come back to the booth at 3 to allow kath and i to do an interview with them. It was cool.

So mid afternoon i had my 2nd incident of not being a fan of the photographer guy. Rob wanted some promo shots of Kath and i for the trainrek website. I was totally cool with that. I thought maybe we would have gone outside and posed a little. There wasn't too many places inside to pose as we are a show that involved nerdy things like comics and crap like that. Nickle came with us because she felt he would try getting us to pose in situations we weren't comfortable in. Ok. As soon as she said that i instantly got worried. So instead of going in the hall way or outside we walked through the show to find suitable places to get our pic taken. First stop? A van that was playing porno movies. Yeah that makes sense for our show. Make sure you get some close ups of anal sex on the monitors. That'll look good on our geek site. i don't even think i was smiling in the photos. Next it was on to the booth that was selling chain shirts and assless chaps. He wanted me to wear something with no shirt. I told Rob i would have been willing to wear the chap s over my jeans--it would have been kinda biker like. i agrees to wear this chain thing over my regular shirt. He seemed pissed i wouldn't take my shirt off. First of all I'm fat and don't take my shirt off ever secondly this has what to do with what we talk about on our show? He also wanted me to take an awesome picture of me staring at a huge bottle of lube. Yeah i was not happy. I was happy when it was over.

Three o clock came and the 3 klingons returned for the interview. They were joined by a guy who had one of the coolest costumes i had ever seen, He was a klingon dressed like Batman! We found out they were part of a group that did a lot of charity work. The interview was cool. I'm so happy Kath was there cause i ran out of stuff to ask. A few times it got noisy so when i asked some questions they didn't hear me. I felt bad but Rob said we did great and it wasn't normal circumstances for an interview and usually we would be prepared if we set up an interview. It was at this point that i had a great idea for a picture for our site. We wanted our pic taken with Bat klingon. His cape actually opened up like a glider. How cool would it be to have him standing behind Kath and i with wings open in a photo. This would make more sense than some of the other stuff we posed with. I asked Rob if that would be ok but the photography guy who had been there in the booth non stop for a day and a half was nowhere to be found. I was pissed. Hmm pic of us by a van showing videos of someone getting peed on or a pic of something that actually pertains to our show. Whatever.

So Rob attempted to cheer me up. He had an idea for a game show. He wanted 2 contestants attempting answering questions while getting a lap dance from 2 ladies at the same time. He picked me to be one of the first contestants against a guy in the audience who was hammered out of his mind. Yes i will admit it was hard to concentrate with 2 naked ladies in my lap. I was actually trying to be funny with my answers and got a few laughs from the crowd. Kath was in the audience cheering me on. What can i say i will do anything to help my friends. What a good friend Rob is to me! It was a funny bit that seemed to be liked by the crowd. Oh for the record i won. One of the ladies told me i was the man. Alright. Giggity giggity.


A little while after that we tried really hard to record a 2nd hour for our Sunday night show. It didn't go so well. We had Nickle sit in. It was so loud from other vendors that it causing feed back on my microphone. Anytime i leaned in to talk i heard a loud buzzing sound. At times i couldn't hear Nickle and Kath and vice versa. It was pretty bad. I wasn't trying to look like a drama queen but i told rob it shouldn't be aired. It was horrible. He said he would fix it in editing. I trusted him to not have us come across as bad.

We continued to work hard the rest of the day until midnight. We cabbed it back to the hotel. Nickle wanted to get some Macdonalds. There was no way i was gonna let her walk alone in Toronto at 1 in the morning. I knew i was really no protection if something happenned but at least i could try and look intimidating. So we went outside and some nice drunk people kept yelling Rock and roll. Macdonalds was also full of drunk people. We saw people asleep on tables and dressed like speedy gonzalez. Good times. We spent about another hour giggling and joking around before we all passed out. Sunday would be a shorter day. Hey i googled and found a pic of the Batman klingon. Enjoy.
