My rant is this...

Why do they charge? Lets face it, if it wasn't for us, the fans, they wouldn't be where they are right now.

They'd be working regular jobs, doing the whole 9-5 thing, flipping burgers, servince customers, slinging boxes, programming, you name it.

Fans made them what they are. If it wasn't for us, think of the alternative.

So, why charge us for meeting them?

Let me guess - oh, we have to pay for the flight, the hotel, our meals, etc.

Bullshit.

These guys make more money per episode than most of us make in a year.

So, they don't need to be compensated. It's utter crap.

I would have been interested in getting autographs from Kevin Sorbo, Michael Rosenbaum, and Tricia Heifler (or however you spell her name), but at $30 for a photo (or more), and the same for an autograph, screw that crap.

I'll have to be damned choosy of those celebraties that I decide to meet at these cons.

It's would have been damned nice if these people would start remembering those people who made them who they are, instead of bending us over for the privilage of meeting them.

After all, the comic artists that I met were more than happy to autograph the graphic novels I brought along WITHOUT demanding a fee.

Celebraties certainly could learn from them.
