Copy below, in case it gets pulled for some reason:

Need help to save face. Got into argument with future mother in law to invite wedding guest. Guest has backed out and I do not want to give future mother in law the satisfaction of being right about not inviting person. As she has never met him, I'd like a replacement. Looking for white male mid to late twenties or early thirties. British or other european accent is a plus. Must be suave and charming (able to work room). a good dancer, and all around ladies man. Starts around noon goes till five. Will discuss details with qualified candiates. Must have country club wedding reception attire, Please attach head shot and list any accent. Please email address above as soon as possible.

Wedding is this saturday (10/31/2009) in Richmond city.
 
Freaking awesome. But if it were real he probably shouldn't include the situation, harder to hide that way.
 
Will airfare be included? I am the most suave and charming person I know. And I can pull off the Irish accent without a flaw. And wait, that's not all, I have a tux. Should you be wanting "privileges" after the ceremony, that would be extra, depending on how hot you are.....or aren't.

Please call me to arrange my services: 1-900-GETAHUNK (my private line)
 
Hmmm, being a male escort. Must really consider this for extra income. I could get rich, as hot as I am.
 
This is not so weird. I hired actors to cruise a party one time, casablanca theme. course, the guests knew they were actors (since the guy was wearing a nazi uniform).
 
I've been trying to figure out how this could go wrong, preferably hilariously wrong. Enough so to make a good story. Maybe the actor is mistakenly given something, like money. Or he has to charm someone without revealing his real identity, but then it verges on romantic comedy which I want nothing to do with.
