"There will be beer, sports heroes, Hooters Girls signing calendars, home
improvement stuff, big screen televisions stuck on football games, a NASCAR
race car, an eating contest and Elvis imitators at Houston's first, here's a
shocker, Guy Expo..."

"Habitat for Humanity will construct a man's dream garage, complete with
built-in bar, lots of power tools and things that make noise when you plug
them into the wall."

For a mere $8 (adults), you can see what heaven is like.

Police, fire, military and Elvis imitators get in free. (But isn't there a
penalty of imitating a policeman?)

I would go, if I had a bunk- house and a "tank".

You really should go and pick up girls. Being as close as you are.

I take it this is not as big as the Texas State Fair...

Evidently this "Guy Expo" is a wandering show. Their web site has photos
from one held in Minneapolis and they just completed one held in St.Paul
(maybe the same one?).

As for girls, well yeah. I used to advise the ladies to attend HAL-PC
meetings (Houston Area League of PC users). "There's bad news and good
news," I would argue. "Bad news: the 15,000 male members are all geeks. The
good news is they all have a job."

"Works for me" was the common reply.
