Other than telling you you're weird, I'd also like to add that I am quite
appealing in a wet T shirt...

> 2. Wrench session where we disassemble something(s) --- maybe engine,

> vendors to SHOw off. (See idea #10)

> 3. Liven up the car SHOw by holding a parking-lot competition to see who

their
> own car --- in the shortest time.

> 4. Award for supercharged SHO with the most "up" time between opening
> reception and closing banquet. : )

> 5. Hey, the convention is in San Francisco and you want to show us what
SF

>
> 6. We'll be dining on Rice-a-Roni, yes? (Get it? Lunching on Rice?)

> 7. Early San Francisco was a gold-rush town, wasn't it? So part of its

have

> Bling-a-Bling."
>
> 8. Contest, overseen by Eva Fourchy, to see who can rearrange hotel
> furnishings for greatest flow of Chi. Possibly a timed event.

> 9. Take a presidential straw poll: Will it be the guy who edged out Leno
> for the title, "The Chin"? Or the Texan wearing the "Kick Me" sticker?
Or
> the bonehead independent who thinks "spoiler" means something on the trunk
> lid?
>
> 10. Wet tee-shirt contest among SHO vendors --- and since it's in San
> Francisco, yup, that means wet tee-shirts on the guys. Should make a big
> splash. ; ) Gawd help us, this is just the sort of thing Doug Lewis
will
