Delores Fisher Strolling at San Diego Comic Con International 2018


                      Delores Fisher pre Comic Con San Diego at the pier

Hello to new readers in the Seychelles!
It's hotter when it's supposed to be cooling down and cooler when it's supposed to be heating up! San Diego's weather is Really interesting this summer. However, to  visitors here for Comic Con International at San Diego https://www.comic-con.org/cci  , this weather is usually considered gorgeous when compared to back home.

Before I start . . . . a shout out to new readers in India. I spent some Comic Con time just hanging out with and talking to India's Rabindra Sarkar. He's back in America for a few months after traveling to South East Asia and Europe  for interviews and appearances.

We've known each other for several years. Rabindra was one of the first people I recorded when I started video interviews of  people of interest to me.

                                                               Rabindra and me July 2018

 It is a real joy to talk with such a positive person.

Comic Con offers such interesting opportunities to enjoy interactions with writers, performers, directors, producers, story boarders, and cosplayers. As usual I did outside exhibit strolling. I did attend an "insider event"---the Afrofuturism Lounge.  (More next post with photos, mini-interviews,    close and personal with writers, graphic artists.)


I took several San Diego Comic Con outdoor site photos this year. Here are a few of my favorites:


  Conan O'brien's talk show is such a hit here. We love the guy!



 Hotel massive displays were really fun!




                                        
     Mobile displays drove all over downtown San Diego
                               

 A fountain display had me guessing if it was real.


 I got an inside scoop on the Jack Ryan interactive 3D installation and posted it on twitter!


 Dominos Pizza on Sixth Avenue downtown San Diego has a fantastic mural

A few free outdoor events



The free Interactive Zone had food trucks, a huge screen with films, and live celebrity Interviews.
                                      Jurassic Park was a hit!

                                            Live music/interviews--pre concert

And of course I had  fun with cosplayers. See if you can guess:






 A professional photo shoot near Broadway and sixth Avenue



 Ah... Princess Leia in triplet . . .wait . . . .

 Wait, are these sexy Mario characters the same three guys above as princess Leia?








 







And at the Afrofuturism Lounge (more next post):

                                                         Hans who?????

I recorded a few interviews. Eric M. Cooper creator to Star Enforcer and Knight Seeker gave me an exclusive on Saturday evening about one of his upcoming projects.



                                                  
Well, I'm having too much fun. Will simply say, thank you Comic Con International at San Diego!


Delores Fisher,

Part of A Legacy:Calvary Baptist Church San Diego

Those of you following me on Twitter and at The Center For World Music: https://centerforworldmusic.org/about-us/board/ know that I was a pianist at Calvary Baptist Church in San Diego California back in the day. Charles Ray was the organist/pianist, professor Jean Wesson was the music director. I also played accompanied the Calvary Baptist Church Youth Choir under the direction of Carol Durgan.  The church was known as Second Baptist in 1889 on the corner of  1st and B street. It was moved to  the corner of  then Crosby Street, https://www.calvarybcsd.org/history/   now known as 719 Cesar E. Chavez Pkwy. and at this time is following the leadership of pastor Dr. Emanuel Whipple Sr. And this Sunday in September 2012 Calvary Baptist Church had a Youth Choir Reunion Concert at 3:30. The concert was a musical extravaganza! This post is going viral so I must do a 2024 update: Hello Dr. Buchanon. Thank you for reading my post from 2012. I am honored!!!!

Jellyfish around San Diego Embarcadero and Broadway Pier

             Delores Fisher Blogger on an early Morning stroll Jellyfish are visiting the San Diego CA. Broadway Pier and Embarcadero again. Jellyfish appeared to swarm in this same area in 2012. Although I posted about the Black Nettle Jellyfish in July 2012, this was the first time since that year that I have seen any type of jellyfish in such numbers at the pier. http://carpenoctum2.blogspot.com/2012/08/black-sea-nettle-jellyfish-at.html   However, multiple sightings of similar and other jellyfish have increased since 2012. Several have been posted on youtube. 2015 has been an odd weather year for San Diego with heat and odd rainfall days (despite our drought). It is possible that temperature shifts are part of the reason why jellyfish are in our bays and near our beaches.  Our October weather has been unseasonably hot this early fall, similar to temperatures during earlier 2015 seasonal sightings.  Shannon Handy reported on a North County swarm of Sail jellyfish in May.

April 2023: A Glimpse of Homeless Performer Glen "Pops" Freeman's visit to San Diego CA in 2022 Post 4

 Yes, I used the term homeless in the title as opposed to other more PC terms.  After reading various articles and blogs, including an enlightening reminder by Joe Omundson at  https://medium.com/ecofrugality/stop-confusing-homeless-and-houseless-39b055d29ea3  , the terms homeless and living on the streets seem to be labels these musicians and artists I will write about this summer prefer.                   Glen Pops Freeman photo by Delores Fisher They have shared their stories about COVID 19, feeling invisible, how they spend their daily lives, the precious flow time spent on the streets, maintaining hope while facing pandemic dynamics, a humbling experience they are allowing me to share with you.                                                     I've written about gen eral  homelessness in San Diego California from different socio-political perspectives over the years in various blog posts(for a recent [for a recent post, see https://carpenoctum2.blogspot.com/2022/07/the-unh
