I think the Con-Con issue is really diversionary. I've always been against Con-Con, from the very first the time the idea was raised. Everybody knows that.
I contend that there really are no more con men. There's no need for con men anymore. There's no need for the very sophisticated, suave guy, the well-dressed guy. Today, you steal with the computer from thousands of miles away - from China, from Libya, from Hong Kong. Your victim's never going to see you, so there's no need to be any of that.
This is not to be cocky, but, I go over real well at Comic-Con. I've done quite a few Comic-Cons, and I enjoy the hell out of them. They are so much fun, and so bizarre. I've done the FX Show in Florida, Wizard-World in Chicago, Comic-Con in San Diego, Wonder-Con in San Francisco, the Comic-Con in New York, and I've done them numerous times.

If you do radio, there's more of a bond there. And then if you do a podcast it's like you're literally inside of your fans.
Except for the con men borrowing money they shouldn't get and the widows who have to visit with the handsome young men in the trust department, no sane person ever enjoyed visiting a bank.
Going to Comic-Con was mind-blowing, seeing all these fans and all these people who know my name.
Turning music into digital was just a con, a record-company con.
Actors are con men and con men are actors.
Now, con said grimly, "I go to kill a werewolf and claim my woman." ~Con
But the downside of being con artist is that it very hard to con. Even if the lies you tell are to yourself.
I love con-men characters in film.
If I play one psychic, then I'm playing a psychic at least three or four more times.
