My insane endurance test begins at 2AM, consisting of a 15-hour nonstop trek to Chicago in a crowded Honda Civic. Tomorrow night a compadre of mine from way way back makes his film debut in the lead role in Jigsaw, an indie horror flick. I hope it is as silly as it looks. It is being shown as a part of the Flashback Horror/Sci-fi Con, which apparently features (although I probably will not get to see them) Bruce Campbell and Richard Kiel (Jaws from the Bond films). I am not big on the whole con scene, but it should be fun nevertheless. Any of you Chicago folks who are interested in this stuff should check it out.
