Edit: gonzo ROCKS! I needed a favor and he hooked me up

Does anyone here work or live near The Galleria in Houston and could possibly run over to the Westin Oaks hotel and take a couple pictures of something for me? We're doing a conference there in a month and they are giving no good info on what space will be like for our booth. I know it's a long shot but if anyone could help I'd appreciate it.


Also, even more unlikely, if you happen to know one or two hot girls who is relatively intelligent and would be willing to wander the crowd and pass out our flyer (wearing normal clothes, not like a bikini or something), in exchange for a big wad of cash, let me know


Thanks to gonzo for hooking us up bigtime with exactly what we needed - video, pics, the whole 9 yards (well except for the hot chicks wink )

Re: Edit: gonzo ROCKS! I needed a favor and he hooked me up

Details on the need for models- time of day, number of hours, etc? I do know some folks in the Houston area, many of whom are / were attractive. Most would be in their 30s now, and they have full-time day jobs, but maybe it'll work out.

Thought you might think so. Honestly, it's probably not something they'd typically be interested in, but they might do it to raise money for various charities (those folks I know are, unlike me, good people).

OMG yes if you can help I'd appreciate it!!! I was going to email you but wasn't sure if you were in Houston or not. Someone else volunteered to help this weekend but if you're close to that area and it's not out of your way then yes I would appreciate it

We're in the hotel which is apparently attached to the galleria

Hell yeah!  It was a piece of cake  biggrin  I totally hope it works out & was glad to do it - Would do it for any of my 92x brethren.  3rd. floor is where it's at:

We are having a meeting right now reviewing your video like it's the Zapruder film, glad to have this b/c it looks like our display unit is too big (but the spot we got is good compared to other people). Without your help we would have probably been stuck bringing too much to the show for the small area we are going to have (there are going to be 4 other booths along that wall)!

Also my boss was so thankful for your help that he insisted we slip you some $ via PayPal, sent to your work address (which appeared to be your paypal account). I've also made you a supporter since you helped me out

Do you have any estimates of how long that wall is (the one you were standing up against in the pic)? like the distance from the edge of the doorway (since it will need to be open and we can't block it I assume) and the right side where the TV is hanging? we'll be getting 1/4th of that space (which doesn't appear to be a lot)
