Here, for my own edification and the edification of others, is a schedule of things of interest to me happening this year in the GTA area and beyond. Some are definites, some are maybes. Some are no-effing-ways. But here they are!

Michelangelo’s Banquet Centre, 1555 Upper Ottawa St., Hamilton ON
Hours: 10 am to 3 pm

September sometime: the SF/Anime Flea Market is usually early September, so stay tuned.
Sept. 26-28 ANIME WEEKEND ATLANTA http://www.awa-con.com/ (a must)
Oct. 4 - HAMMER TOWN COMIC CON Saturday Oct. 4 10-7 Hamilton Convention Center http://www.hammertowncomiccon.com/ (new show, no ticket prices yet, if it's reasonable we'll go)
Not even bothering to list the Hobbystar shows, as they have priced themselves right out of my range. I'm not going to spend $10+ just to shop; I don't care about their guests or the ability to photograph cosplayers.
More will likely be added to this as it becomes available, so stay tuned to this station for further developments!
