"The stooping sun upgathers his spent shafts / And puts them back into his golden quiver"

This weekend is our local science fiction convention (40th year!) which promises to be a lot of fun. My current schedule:

Friday 8 Nov 5pm-5:50pm - Origami workshop ("learn how to fold origami" according to the official description)
Saturday 9 Nov 11am-11:50am - The dynamics of couples in adventure
Saturday 9 Nov 3pm-3:50pm - Don’t even tell them once (letting your audience figure it out for themselves)
Sunday 10 Nov 11am-11:50am - Vogon Poetry (very bad poetry round-robin)

If you're in the area, come on down. There's single-day passes, even. If you can't make it, here's some links to console yourself:

The vogon poetry sounds like it'll be fun, and I'd *love* to participate in your origami workshop.

What is your subject line from? It's beautiful.

Vogon Poetry (not my name for it, but it does convey something to the audience) is usually fun. Especially late at night.

It's by Longfellow, a closet-drama called "The Golden Legend," based on a continental medieval tale of the same name. It has a lot of beautiful passages, but I've never managed to read all the way through it -- it's not very successful as a story.
