More Windycon 36 photos

I've already posted some links from Windy 36 elsewhere, but rolling through the chicago-sf.org forum is as good a method or poaching 'em as a search on Google. Three more Flickr links courtesy of strange_fetish, hida_dragonbane and Strangeknowledge can be accessed here or on the forum thread itself and this link is courtesy of the Airship Lollypop (!) website.

Peeps, feel free to indulge your inner costuming geek and send me some more.

You better hope *this* penguin on the telly doesn't explode

I got a giggle out of the humor displayed in the vid advertising BrewDog's frightening new Tactical Nuclear Penguin (which I first caught on the morning news on WMAQ-TV, of all places!), and at 64 proof (!) it apparently really is the most potent brew in existence, beating Sam Adams' Utopias by a 5% margin.

And now, the downside: according to NBC-5, a bottle of this stuff will cost you about (aboot?) $50 US.
 
My guess is that this is worth picking up, but only after you get a big, fat, entirely insane bonus at work.

That, or a sack of money from an armored car smacks you in the face after the truck gets abducted by aliens.
