travis mentioned this in comments a few entries ago, and i can’t see any reason not to go. i mean, look at the guest list (in order of matt hero points):
wil wheaton
jeff bates & rob malda
steve jackson
jon maddog hall
neil gaiman (sorry, kristin, for placing him last. 🙂
and, to boot, it’s located in the (not-so) great state to the north, michigan. i will be registering after christmas. unfortunately the registration fee is a bit hefty.

“As part of our offered hospitality, Penguicon will be serving beer during evening and late night hours in the Smoking and Non-Smoking Consuites. There may also be other events that will include beer, wine, or other alcoholic beverages. ”
DUDE you can go have a beer with wil wheaton
it would be a dream come true.
So e-mail him. Chip and I are thinking about e-mailing him and Neil and asking if they want to go out for sushi. Neil loves sushi. Not sure about Wil though. 😉
