I know he does Loony Toons, and used to do Ren & Stimpy (which puts him at near -diety level in my book)...I just found out he's the media guest at Archon this October. I don't get out much at the 'con, since I work with the masquerade staff, but I'd really like to meet him. What's the best way to approach a successful character actor and not sound like just a regular con fan? (hopefully by then I'll have a gig or two under my belt and will be an actual noobie instead of a mere wannabe).

He'll always be Phillip J. Fry (and Professor Farnsworth) to me.

Write a fan letter.

No kidding.
that's how I got to be pals with George Sanger and Pat Fraley.

I'm a fan of Billy's from when he used to work on The Howard Stern Show back in the mid 90's. he does a mean Larry Fine from the three Stooges. His Marge Schott impersonations would make you pee your pants. Billy left the Stern Show to go out to Hollywood where he could make more money doing what he does best. He always seemed like a good guy, I bet you that he's very approachable.

I always thought Stimpy was Larry Fine-esque. (Fine-ish? Fine-like?)
