GGM Guest Blog - Ash Paulsen

[Archon_Turtle]

Awhile ago I conned Ash Paulsen (Rob Paulsen's son) into writing a piece for GGM as to what it was like growing up having a ninja turtle for a dad. Ash has graciously submitted his piece to us, and it is currently up on GGM here:

We love this kind of inside look at the turtleverse and life in general, and we hope you do as well :-)

That's MY picture! I took that picture of them at the San Diego Comic Con Friday, July 5, 1996. It was the very first time I met Rob! :o

Neat! Ash's mom supplied it to me :-)

Neat! Ash's mom supplied it to me :-)Yeah, because it was given to Rob. Though, it's been so long, I can't remember if my friend, Karen, gave the picture to him for me, or I personally gave it to him, but somehow he got a copy. And look here, I was by myself, so someone standing by took this picture for me:

Goodness, I was 17 years old! But, after I got that photo with Rob, I asked him to pose with Ash. You can even see he was still holding the Sharpie pen in his hand. All I had with me was one of the four vinyl Animaniacs trading cards with Yakko on it, so he signed it with the Sharpie. :)

I'm actually glad I saw the picture up. Brought back soooo many awesome memories!! :lol:

Well I'm glad we could help :-)

P.S. Didn't we meet at con last year? :-)

Well I'm glad we could help :-)I know, I met Rob many times plus his wife Parrish at the Annie Awards in 1999. She is a beautiful lady, very sweet and kind. Ash is a cool kid, very sweet too. :)

P.S. Didn't we meet at con last year? :-)Yeah! I was gonna say your SN looked very familiar. Are you the one with the really awesome TMNT tattoos? If so, then yes, we've met! :D I was with my other TMNT buds at Kevin's table, though, I only saw you on Preview Night. Did you stay for the rest of the Comic Con?
