Hi. We waited for you until 1:00 pm and then decided to go back. Good thing you
decided to stay home actually. The fishing was not good and it was not warm.
Akiko and I went to Old Town for stinko de mayo on Sunday. It was fun and gonna
be posting some videos tonight including a video of a really cool performer from
Ecuador. Let me know if the Springfest thingy was good or not. Talk to you
again.

I did the spring fest because I did not have to pay for the booth
I set up the GNABA booth and Shared it with GNABA.
Since I did not pay i was not upset that the event really sucked.
i WILL NOT GO BACK NEXT year.
I worked from 5:30 AM to 1:00 PM (my relief at noon was late).
I then went home and took a nap till 3:15.
and came back at 4 to tear down the booth.
The only hilite of the day was riding on the GNABA float IN THE PARADE
and Throwing Rubber hammers at the crowd.
I will do that agAIN.
Sorry I missied Fishing.
@We live 3 blocks from each other we can talk without spending 4.00 on gas.
I even talk on the phone
so Please call.

Yeah kinda figured it would suck. After getting booted out last year, we decided
not to bother covering the event. Throwing stuff at people is totally cool
though. We went to stinko de mayo and really enjoyed the day. Because of the
site, we get media parking anywhere we go. We show our business card and get
fantastic parking. Good side benefit of the site.
Met a lot of people and trying to finish up four new videos from the event.
Akiko and I came home and made BBQ burritos. We polished off a ton of
margaritas. Anyway, gonna send you email when the videos are online. The House
of India video is already approaching 800 views in only a couple weeks. Talk to
you again.

Hi. No problem about the dinner. Completely understand. It works out because
Akiko and I want to work on some new site technology and then get drunk tonight.
hehe. Anyway, check the home page of the SD site. You can vote for your favorite
candidate in the upcoming election. Pretty cool. Added this today. You can vote
in each poll once on each of your computers. Talk to you again.

Howie and Akiko.
I think I made a mistake.
The dinner was to be special for just Linda and Arlene
and I think I stepped on some toes.
Doug is doing the cooking and it looks like it may be at Arlenes.
I am really not involved. Arlenes is pretty small place and seating is at a
premium.
So I need to resind our invitation because it was not mine to extend.
I hope you understand.
Please call when you get this.
We will make it another time.
Jim.

Hi. I wanted to update you on some Internet stuff. The new technology was
installed last night in the form of opinion polls for the upcoming election. I
spent the entire day collecting politician email from the registrar of voters
site and a ton of other sites which now totals about 16 pages of email
addresses. Anyway, began sending email to politicians and they are going crazy
voting and sending email to everyone to vote on the polls. The site traffic is
already over 10 times the normal amount and probably gonna be much higher
tonight. They post and then keep coming back to check the new results.
We are planning an entire election coverage on the SD site beginning next month,
including polls, opinion and debate boards, and new Google gadgets. Gonna be
crazy. Anyway, I needed to take off all the banners on the home page except for
the banners to my other Internet sites as the home page needs to be redone in
preparation for the upcoming elections. Needed to get it cleaned up a bit.
Things will be back to normal in awhile.
Someone posted a comment about the Passover video. Probably they know you. Check
it on this page.

can. Until then.

Hi. Yup, kinda funny. We wanted to know who in the heck was posting a video
comment. Mystery solved. Akiko and I decided to look into purchasing a house.
Good time to invest. We are hoping to keep getting crap properties and make
money on resale. The SD finished the weekend with more traffic than the English
and Japanese sites combined. Anyway, getting ready to put more election stuff on
the site. Making tons of political connections with this. Talk to you again.

Hi. I really want to thank you for taking the time to vote for my video and
forwarding to your friends. We are doing good but freaking busy. Akiko is past
the 90 day thing at the company and we can use the benefits next month. I was
placed on the Japan Society committee for the upcoming festival. Then of course
there is the video contest. Doing crazy promotion for this. Sending out 1200
email per day, the ATT limit, even to international schools and agencies.
Getting incredible support from the international community. Many of these
companies post jobs on a regular basis and are happy to do this for me since the
job boards are free. Anyway, gonna be sending email tonight about the food fair.
Thank you again.
Howie.
