So I went to this really cool party by ReelzChannel in Hollywood, and lo and behold, Sara Fletcher, the host of Movie Mob, was there! Even though we’re both on the show, we’ve never met face-to-face. Until tonight. We took this cool picture together.

Don’t you totally want to kiss our faces? She’s really cool, and extremely funny! It’s a pleasure to have her introduce my movie reviews every week.
I also met many behind-the-scenesters from Movie Mob and ReelzChannel. They all had wonderful things to say about me and my reviews. So keep voting me on the show! We wouldn’t want to disappoint them, right?

It’s time once again for another Black Nerd Star Sightings!
Who did I see “hopping” about last night to the rock group Stolen Babies at Hollywood hot spot Boardner’s?

All good things must come to an end. Like Comic-Con 2008 and my Comic-Con 2008 recap.
Hope you enjoyed the ride. And be sure to read all of it. There will be a quiz. Seriously. There will be.
SUNDAY
That’s it! I’m going to see a panel that I want to see today if it kills me!
So I’m going into Ballroom 20 as soon as the Comic-Con doors open, and I’m staying there until the Harold and Kumar Panel happens!
Luckily, it worked. Take that, crowds!

Saturday’s not over yet! Here’s what happened for the rest of that day at the fabulous Comic-Con! And on top of all these adventures, I handed out pretty much all of my postcards! Yay!
SATURDAY (CONT’D)
In addition to meeting voice-over artists, Scooby-Doo creators, basketball players, and even some Black Nerd Comedy fans who recognized me (with and without the Scooby suit), I got to run into some other “Cewebrities” promoting at Comic-Con.
Hey, we all have to hustle to get seen.

More Comic-Con goodness comin’ at ya! As Samuel L. Jackson says in Jurassic Park, “Hold on to your butts!”
SATURDAY
Sometimes I can be very naive. It’s a cute quality. I like it. But sometimes it works against me.
For example, I actually believed I had a chance to get into the Heroes panel.
That maybe enough people were turned off by Season 2 that the line wouldn’t be, oh I don’t know, ALL THE WAY AROUND THE DAMN CONVENTION CENTER!
Oh well, to The Black Panel it is.

It’s time for more adventures of my Comic-Con experience. And the welcomed visit of an old friend… my Scooby-Doo costume.
FRIDAY
With a bag full of postcards and a bigger bag full of costume, I entered a bathroom stall as Black Nerd and exited as Scooby-Dooby-Doo!
I didn’t know how my Scooby-Doo costume would be accepted at Comic-Con.
Turns out it was a success.
Literally seconds after entering the floor, I was approached by Comic-Con patrons to take pictures. Which made it easy to get a Black Nerd Comedy postcard in their hand (the postcard also was of me in the costume).
I was quickly approached by a production assistant that “John” wants to interview me.
That John was John Salley of The Best Damn Sports Show Period.

This is my recap of my 4 days at Comic-Con 2008… or at least as much as I can remember. It was a long week, and I spent a lot of it in a Scooby-Doo costume, so I’m a little light-headed.
I’ll tell you right now. I’m writing based on my own personal Comic-Con adventures. So if you’re looking for secret Hugh Jackman appearances, love or hate debates over Twilight, or first-look videos that will eventually be deleted from YouTube, you’re in the wrong place. Let’s do this!

Here’s a pic from a special stand-up comedy performance I did for the CD release party for Unwrapped. It’s a holiday CD by Rogue, a totally awesome group of soulful sisters who can SANG! If you haven’t listened to them yet, you’re way behind in the world of good music (Seriously, they don’t have a single song about an umbrella or lip gloss).

People, get this album. You can easily listen to it past the holidays, its message and melodies last all year long. Thanks a lot for the stage time, ladies. Keep doing your thing and maybe next time, I’ll see you performing at the GRAMMYs (unless that awards show gets canceled by the writer’s strike, too). I love you, Melinda, Krystle, and (fellow black nerd) Erika.

I can’t believe I spent my birthday weekend at the fabulous Playboy Mansion and still managed to be a nerd about it.
One thing some of us actors do to earn extra money over the Halloween season is play improv characters or dress up as monsters for Halloween parties, haunted houses, and the like.
I personally haven’t done this type of thing in years, but when invited to do it for said mansion, I decided to get back into it, because…
1. I would get to go to the Playboy Mansion.
2. I would get to go to the Playboy Mansion.
3. It sounded like a lot of fun.
4. I would get to go to the Playboy Mansion!!!
