| A very amusing evening at Esther's Follies. Well worth a visit next time you're in Austin. |

| AskSam were another popular exhibitor, and always willing to help out. |
 |
|
| Lots of great food, fun and friends throughout the conference. |
 |

Plenty of door prizes to be won. Everyone loves two things: (1) Prizes (2) Freebies. Maybe 'FreePint' should be renamed 'FreePrizes' -- irresistible. |
