From Monday to Thursday I will be over at Detailers Paradise, and I'll be working on a few cars during that time.

I'll be working alongside Heathers booth, but I think she will be focused on selling products, and probably won't have much time to devote to any tutorials, so my plan will be if I'm not working on a car--I will be holding classes hourly. If no one shows up for a session, I'll probably go out for a drive.

If I am working on a car--you're welcome to watch and ask questions. Depending on what stage I'm at--if I'm in a rush to finish, I may not be able to pause and answer a lot of questions, but I will let you know.

I'm planning on bringing some products for sale. Is anyone considering to purchase a PC? Maybe some more Black Wow? A DVD? A PC Guard?

Don't forget to participate in my Scavenger Hunt game. I've got lots of fun things planned for those that participate!

That's a good question. When I originally posted this, I was checking on interest to see whether I should try to hold individual sessions or just do a tech session. So since Johnathan has scheduled me for one or two, I'll be doing a general session at the sessions.

Around that I will be holding 30 minute sessions on the hour every hour. Visit my booth for times. People interested in a class just need to show up 10 to 15 minutes before the hour, so I know they want to participate.

I will be holding the Scavenger Hunt "Show What You Brung" at my Tech Session on Saturday. More details unraveling this week.

For anyone that loves the smell of Black Wow, now you can taste it! The flavor that is--not the BW. Stop by my booth to find out.

Haha yeah! Sorry that wasn't meant to be a riddle--but rather--if you're at MITM, stop my booth for some yummies.

Just a quick post to thank OG for attending MITM 2007. It was great to meet the now famous OctaneGuy in person and to watch the sultan of swirl, the man of microfibers, the prestidigitator of polish and the wizard of wax perform his legendary magic.
I even learned a new use for a plastic hotel key!
Thanks again Richard, hope you had fun and hope you can make it to MITM '08!

Yes, that took

a bit of thought.

Kind of like when I did that Limerick thread here in NAM a few years ago. Hard to do Limericks and keep them clean....

Chuck,

It was a pleasure meeting you too! Seems we both taught each other a few new things! Thanks for showing me the paper plate trick. I found that old unwanted tri-fold brochures also work well since they are usually glossy which helps them slide under the trim.

I had a great time and plan on returning in 2008.

Also thanks Jonathan for your very interesting limericks. LOL

Richard
