It's more than interesting, it pretty funny actually!
For those not in the know, the John and Drew that Jeffery refers to are the guys in charge of the Amazing Model Contest at WF each year. They are also friends of mine, and have been for more than a decade.
John, Drew, J.T., H.B., B.B., Q. and Myself are members of the Louisville Figure Modelers Society. We hang out, build models, and attend local shows together. Sometimes we are even business partners; we almost always have a vendor's table at WF, and have produced and distributed several garage kits over the years. If you've bought a limited run GK from WF in the last decade, you may have one of them.
About a month ago, while we were attending the local IPMS show, John asked me if I would be a judge at WF this year.
Now the thing is, I hate judging at WF, for any number of reasons, and John knows this. He wouldn't ask me if he didn't think he needed me, so I reluctantly agreed.
WF comes around, and that Saturday at around 11:30am, I commented to Drew that I thought the contest tables were looking a little bit empty. He agreed. So we did a quick count, and came up about 150 less entries than last year. I said "I'm guessing you won't be needing me this year..."
So as you can imagine, when I came in here and found Jeffery pointedly contradicting things I knew to be true, and quoting my friends to do so, I was quite amused.
But hey Jeff, don't take my word for it. You should never trust anything you read on the internet. Drop John a note, and ask him.
(If you want to make his day, ask him how his Alien figure did at the IPMS Invitational. Then ask him who won the Best In Show...)
LOL!
