That's just a vinyl overlay, no need for a new fridge.

It's an overlay? That's a great idea!

He was at a comic show my son and I went to today. I got an autograph photo of him and talked to him for a few minutes. I didn't drag it out because he honestly looked exhausted. I told him he was one of my heroes as a kid and thanked him which he has heard a million times. Had him sign the photo to Dave and Jordan. It was very nice. Jordan pretty much stood there with his jaw hanging open the whole time.

I saw him at a con once and could've met him, but decided to meet James Doohan instead (only had so much money and time). Since I consider myself much more of a Trekkie than an SW fan and since Doohan has since passed, I don't regret it.

But I wouldn't mind meeting the guy who played Harvey Dent in the 89 Batman.

What was he charging? The bigger the show, the more he charges for photo-ops and autographs. The last time I saw him, he wasn't moving around too well. I kind of regret not getting something from him when I saw him at a local toy show about a year ago. I think what swayed me was him not taking off his sunglasses for photos. Perhaps he was drinking Colt 45 the night before and his eyes were still red.

He was charging 50 bucks for an autograph on one of his 8x10s. I'm not an autograph hound at all but I couldn't help myself.

And he didn't look good, almost out of it. They brought him to and from the table in a wheelchair, which I saw later on. He got out of the wheelchair and walk behind the table but he just looked wiped out. My son felt really bad about that and I explained to him that the man is going on 80.

I've see Billy a few times at conventions, most recently at Star Wars celebration and he had sunglasses on. I think he might be sensitive to light now at his age. Camera flashes might give him migraines.

Congrats Dave, to you and your son on getting to meet Lando.

Ah, so the choice of Doohan because of his health may have just postponed making the same choice again. Well, I wish him the best.

I've met at least one celeb with that problem.
