they asked if there were anyone from St Louis in the audience. And when people responded, they pointed to the door and said "the exit is right there". or, you know, words to that effect. Baseball.
Had I gone to the con, I would stood between both Js at photo time proudly wearing my Pujols jersey, embracing their fine Texas gentlemen selves.
Go CARDS!!
Completely random: How do people write fic that goes up through the last few episodes and still give Bobby *dogs*? Bobby hasn't had dogs since ... S2? Maybe not even then.
I'm not remembering dogs at Bobby's place. And since the fire we have only seen Bobby in a car. No clue what is new living arrangements are.
Bobby briefly had dogs -- one was named Rumsfeld, I remember. But they appeared maybe twice. They're big in fic, but come on. If you're following canon up through S6, you know the dogs are no more.
Amy - do you recall what episode has Rumsfeld? It is bugging me that I have no memory of the dog(s).
Meg killed Rumsfeld in Devil's Trap. It was the only time we actually saw a dog at Bobby's. That he was visibly upset when the dog was killed gave people the idea that the crusty old galoot actually loved his cliche junkyard dog. And it was a vehicle for kids and dogs bonding growing up, when the boys were young and John left them at "Uncle Bobby's". None of which is canon. We never heard of Bobby until DT, he was supposed to be a one-shot. He showed up again in IMToD because the Impala was totalled and Bobby conveniently owned a scrapyard and a tow truck, and it was a place where Dean could work on the car. Bobby was sort of the entree into the network of hunters we learned about in S2, and it opened out the 'verse for fic writers to explore Winchester childhoods. Stood to reason there would have been dogs. They--and summers spent at Singer Salvage--have become accepted convention. But still no more canon than "Uncle" Bobby, until A Winchester Christmas, when wee!Sam called him that. The only dog in Winchester childhood canon was Bones.

Right. And at that point, Sam knew nothing about what his Dad really did, but still knew Bobby and knew him well enough to consider him part of the family. Yet in DT, the implication was that he had never met Bobby before. I get the idea that Kripke, et. al. saw the potential that they had in the character and in S3 took the opportunity to open things up so that Bobby could have more of a history and connection with the boys.
I think there's definitely room for fic writers to have the boys as having spent significant chunks of time at Bobby's when young, but I also think there's plenty of room for the show runners to Joss that idea without contradicting themselves.
Edited because I spel gud
Today's random observation: Dean and Tessa really needed to have hot sex at some point.
I still hold out hope that one day she'll be the one to come and reap him, and then... reap him. If you know what I mean, and I think that you do.
I THINK THAT I DO, TOO. Heh.
