My story was a little different JRob...
****************************************
BA had to intervene on my behalf and
talk an angry, pms-ing female Canadian
Immigration officer ... the day before
the conference who WAS NOT going to
let this pony-haired, radioactive dust
encrusted-hair, American gnome accross
the border ...
(Guess she had to meet her quota of
men she had to torture this century)
Imagine what it was like at the
Immigration center for me where the
semi-private car service - the Robt Q
mini-van delivered me to
Immigration Officer: "Where are you going ??"
Me: ... "Well .. I don't really know.
To Windsor ... I do have this Google
map printout ..."
Officer: "Who is putting on this
convention?"
Me: "Some guy known as BA ..."
Officers: What is this convention about ...
Me: What do you tell them ??? Huh ?
"Well .. 20 .. maybe 30 guys get together
and put on wigs! No fishnets or funny stuff ..
just wigs ...
Yea ... 4 hours later ... They were going
to send me back to America .... I could see
the papers now ..
"Hypno-Terrorist sneaks across the country using
lame Benny Hill Wig Excuse!" ...
And when they found out I was a hypnotist ..
Well .. You can just imagine !
****************************
EVENINGS IN WINDSOR'S FINEST
****************************
Of course .. We did have the greatest time ...
BA took us to dinner both nights to Windsor's
Finest Steak Eateries ... plus Chinese ..
And then it was out for cappuccino's
at the local coffee hangout before heading
to the 'Milk Bar' for the 60's decor and
for those who like to imbibe with spirits ...
Now .. Lets not forget Saturday's exquisite
lunch and LINO's expertise and culinary skills
on the barbecue lunch which BA provided ..
or ...The 'can't-put-a-price-on-it' FREE
education we received in 'wig wearing basics!"
Or ...Those who took advantage of the 'free
cut-ins' and tune-ups to their pieces with
Debbie ...
Or the gracious education you provided JRob ..
allowing yourself to be photographed and
worked on with a full cap ... demonstrating
how short and natural it can be.
**********************************************
Of course .. I'm not going to mention the
croissants and eggs in bed .. or the wild
ladies of Windsor .. massaging our long,
borrowed Remi-ied manes ... because some of
you assured me ... I had only experienced that
because I whacked my head on the overhead bin
compartment on the plane when I was departing ...
But it seems real enough for me ....
******************************************
AND JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT HE COULD
DO NO MORE .. YOUR AIRFARE WAS COMPENSATED
BY THIS LITTLE GIFT !
*******************************************
Oh yea ... and if this doesn't beat all ..
besides the education .. the food .. the
free room and board ... the ride to the
airport, good friendship and fun times ...
BA gave us a free custom- built topper just
for showing ...
*********************************************
Does this guy know how to throw a convention?

What did Bill Gates ever give his users
except a faulty software program that
promised to need a severe bug fix before
the warrantee started ...
MY QUESTION IS TO SERIOUS HAIR WEARERS ....
"WHY WEREN'T YOU THERE ?"
"DID YA FLIP YA WIG or SOMETHING ? "
(there's always next year ... right after
people slam me for writing another long post!
