For me, the long weekend was primarily focused on InConjunction, the science fiction/fantasy convention held at the east side Marriott where I had the pleasure of running a spelling bee and put trivia contest, serving as a charity auctioneer, and playing lots of new board and card games. I also participated in an interested panel discussing post-apocalyptic films (if you have an interest in the genre, make sure to check out "100 Mornings" at the Indianapolis International Film Festival, coming up later in July).
While I was conventioneering, what were you up to?
Did you get to Symphony on the Prairie and/or spend the day at Conner Prairie? Catch a concert at Verizon Wireless Music Center or on the Canal? Catch up on movies at a heavily air-conditioned multiplex or finally tackle the reading pile? (The latest on mine: the young adult novel "Will Grayson, Will Grayson" by David Levithan and Indianapolis' John Green.)
So what did you see, hear, or do this weekend?
Your thoughts?

In juxtaposition, went to see Cyrus. Sorta sad and slow, seasoned with some very funny scenes. Why do comedies as a genre tend to disappoint?
After braving the heat of the Prairie, we went to a see the Swedish noir thriller, Girl with a Dragon Tattoo. Beautifully bleak, you could almost feel the snow. Now that's my kind of summer movie.
