Of course, it all depends on what they allow me to take photos/videos of.

Okay, it is official, October 26-November 2 is going to be the most amazing week ever! Not only do I get to go to SLC to become a part of Tex Murphy history, but the weekend before I get to go be a part of music history at the 40th Anniversary Blue Oyster Cult concert in New York City's Times Square!

Awesome. Having a set date makes it all the more exciting :) Better mark it on the calender and start counting down the days.

Whenever I count down the days something explodes. So, I think not. :)

Dude, yeah. Blue Oyster Cult and Filming a walk on for the new Tex Game in the same time bloc. You sir have crossed the "win" threshold and entered into "nirvana".

Seriously have a good time, and I'm with everyone else, got to hear the blow by blow after it all goes down. Or maybe, more preferably, as its happening. ;-)

I may not need an airplane as I'll be on Cloud 9. I'll probably just ride it there. :) ha ha ha

Well, he did pay for it, so maybe not so much luck as good fortune :)

Not really good fortune, either, considering the money I used came from an inheritance left to me by my mother, who passed away in March 2002. Which is why I want to have her picture put into the game. It's the least I can do.

Is it just me or did anyone else almost start balling when they read that.

To immortalize your mother forever is awesome.

Even if it is just a minor photo in the game.

I think your mom would be happy knowing you did this in a way that was close to your heart.

God having kids has made me such a sap.

Awh! What a super kind thing to do, and what a great way to honor her. :)

Very nice Trilaan. Not to argue, but I still think it's good fortune in that it's fortunate that your mother left you enough that you can do this. I know, it's certainly not good fortune that she passed away but, given that she did, it's fortunate that you will be able to memoralize her this way.

Okay, but winning the lottery would have been worlds better.

Totally agree; the lottery would most definitely have been a better option.
