So off to </b></div> <div> <B>Springdale Arkansas but I was late arriving at the con that day and the   competition Was over, so no competing that day. </b></div> <bR> <div> <B>      It may have been too late to compete, although looking around at the other people in their costumes and how much fun they seemed to be</b></div> <div> <B>having , I decided to change into the costume anyway. As I was changing from myself to the escaped Klingon prisoner Q'Ulor, a man holding what appeared to be a very expensive camera ask if he could snap a few pictures as I applied the makeup, I replied with a very curious       yes.</b></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>      As I was applying my make-up the gentleman snapped several</b></div> <div> <B>pictures from all angles including a reverse image in the mirror,</b></div> <div> <B>after about 10 minutes or so the gentleman thanked me and as</b></div> <div> <B>he left he said "should have been in the contest."  The next day</b></div> <div> <B>just after arriving at the convention center,  The lady checking tickets</b></div> <div> <B>ask me if I had seen the Sunday morning newspaper.  I hadn't yet,</b></div> <div> <B>so I went to find one.  In full color, there I was FRONT PAGE ,</b></div> <div> <B>I started to jump up and down screaming with great gusto</b></div> <div> <B>and excitement (on the inside) of course,  my outward appearance</b></div> <div> <B>was some what subdued.  You know, ( the isn't that really nice face)</b></div> <div> <B>    <IMG SRC="0b5b0de0.gif" border=0 width="176" height="222" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="0c2eceb0.gif" border=0 width="236" height="235" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></b></div> <bR> <div> <B>      Well to sum up the opening page,  you could say that I was</b></div> <div> <B>hooked.  Now after  8 years of conventions and competitions</b></div> <div> <B>I decided to share some of what I've learned.  From Klingon to</b></div> <div> <B>assimilated Klingon,  I feel the journey has just begun.</b></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>  </b></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="052b0220.jpg" border=0 width="432" height="290" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div>  </div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id17.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Mailbag"><U>Mailbag</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id23.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="COSTUMES"><U>COSTUMES</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id18.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Related Links"><U>Related Links</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id19.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Contact Me"><U>Contact Me</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id20.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="OTHER COSTUMES"><U>OTHER COSTUMES</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id21.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Borg costume guide "><U>Borg costume guide </U></A>   |   <A HREF="id22.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="BORG BY YOU"><U>BORG BY YOU</U></A>   |   <A HREF="id25.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="latex works"><U>latex works</U></A></div> <bR> <div> Star Trek ) (Star Trek The Next Generation) (Star Trek Deep Space Nine)             (Star Trek Voyager) and related properties are Registered Trademarks of Paramount Pictures All original images  are copyright © Paramount Pictures.
