editor Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Houston Architecture Info Forum Contest Number One --:-- We're having a series of five contests here at HAIF. Partially to thank our loyal readers for 3+ years of quality discussions, and partially just for fun. Each contest will be slightly different, but in all no purchase will be necessary. What's the prize? A spiffy new HAIF T-Shirt (size "large") available nowhere else. So, here's how to win: Answer this trivia question: According to the magazine on my wife's end table, how many one ounce bottles of shampoo does the Hilton Americas in Houston have on hand in the housekeeping supply room? First correct answer before August 5, 2005 wins the shirt. If no one answers correctly, the closest answer will be chosen. If there are multiple correct answers, the first one posted wins. Yes, moderators can enter and win because I didn't tell them about the contest. This is the first they're hearing about it, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pineda Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Wish I could laugh at that, but after attending the big Mold Meeting last night, I just kept thinking that the Cure sounds much worse than the Disease.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedScare Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I was going to ask about that. Why don't you post a synopsis on the mold thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to give stuff away.There will be four more shirt giveaways over the next week or so. Some will be a little harder. The last one will go to the person who simply replies to the right message first. That's the easiest one of all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Town Man Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Shouldn't that be "Capital," not "Capitol"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 I was trying to be clever. "Capitol" as in buildings. I guess it didn't work. I can change it for the next batch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
