I have a friend Mario who is deeply geeky, like myself. He is way into conventions like BlizzCon and such. Besides the usual trappings of these events like group panels, stuff to buy, and gaming events, he is also way into cosplay. He's at a level of proficiency that requires tools, skill, garage space, and a dedication to the craft. He and his girl, Alice thought that this weekend's Wondercon in San Francisco would be a good chance for me to get into it as well.
