So, I've taken a LOT of ridicule for my geeky ways. Well, that can finally end - it seems that my passion and obsession has been legitimized!!! Check out NPR - how much more legitimate can you get from that???

Toy Fair 2005

In late February, I went with Barry, his brother and his father to Toy Fair in NYC. Toy Fair is a very important event for any retailer of toys or related merchandise; you get to see the latest gadgets, dolls, games, etc. for the upcoming season.

Javits Center teeming with people on the first day of Toy Fair.

The vendors pull out all the stops, with extravagant displays, and celebrities to boot! Why, even Marie Osmond turned out for this event - of course, she owns a very successful doll company that features many dolls of her own design.

One vendor even had one of the original munchkins from The Wizard of Oz. It was very surreal to see this withered gnome who is still recognizable sitting behind the folding table of a vendor in the back end of the Fair where many of the companies were from Hong Kong...

This is March Madness...

While Barry was complaining about yet ANOTHER snow storm this season (and on his birthday, no less!), I took the time to snap these pictures. I don't know about Barry, but I think THIS is the reason I love to live in the country. Now to get a car that can actually DRIVE in it...
