I met Glenn and D-for the duck at the Empress this weekend.

I have to say Glenn is a better conversationalist :)

I'm sad that once again, I wasn't around to meet Glenn, and I would've loved to 
meet the 
duck.

Glenn -
I too missed the duck again.
How did this happen?
I think I would really bond with the duck if I could just get to meet 
him - or her. Does he resemble Howard the Duck at all?
Sorry we didn't hook up this time, Glenn.

I believe that it was blocked to encourage people to buy admission 
tickets so that they could see.  I know that the City was not 
approached for approval to erect the blue screen (the promoter didn't 
know approval was required - that will change next time.) APPD was 
telling the people standing on the benches that they could not stand 
on them (many still did.)

On Sunday, the Waffle guy was gone, but Waffles had been added to the

By mid-day, Convention Hall was opened so that people not 
participating in Sand Blast could use the restroom facilities in CH.  
The O. Ave sign lead to another sign on the boardwalk which directed 
people to Convention Hall.  There was also a "Boardwalk Update" flyer 
available at those horrible white boxes with blue roofs (the info 
boxes) which detailed what was open on the boardwalk and in the CH 
arcade.  The last lines of the flyer says "YOU DO NOT HAVE TO USE THE 
PORTA-POTTIES.  THERE ARE LOTS OF CLEAN, GENUINE REST-ROOMS JUST 
INSIDE THE CONVENTION HALL DOORS!"  (uppercase on the flyer, I am not 
trying to yell)
