gotta go!!!!!

I aam soooooo sick. Feeling sorry for myself.

On what was supposed to be the busiest weekend of the year. I caught a bug. For the past 2 nights I've been shivering and running a fever. The problem is the world doesnt stop because you get sick.

I'm in Boca today preparing for a wedding in Miami tomorrow. Alex is in Montreal setting up the new studio and Tim/Vitali and Aaron are running the ship in Toronto (with sicko Marianna supervising).

Florida is so perfect this time of year. I went out on my balcony this morning. I staay right across the street from the studio, about a 3 minute drive to the beach. I cannot remember smelling such freash morning air. Well that will change fast I have to drive to Miami this afternoon to pick up some equipment.


All of you in Montreal who have emailed and phone and email again asking when we will finally open up the studio well the answer is:

TODAY!!!!

Please give us a caall at 888-705-6380 to arrange to drop off your order. We will be booking weddings for the 2009/2010 season starting in December. Look for special pricing and a new options of video and photo not seen in Montreal.

Lots to do

Found a new radio station. 96.3 fm - targeted for 45 and olders. The scary part is that I really like listening to the station. Alex and I were discussing placing some radio ads on this station.

You see our target market for TorontoHomeMovies.com is 45-80. These are the poeple who grew up with analog video, film, audio and photos. Now their parents are getting very old and they are finding old movie reels in closets, garages and basements that they really want to see.

Our target market for Excellence Photography is 22-38. In this case these are Brides and Grooms who are upper middle class who have a very high standards regarding what they want for photograpy and video for their special day.

The business of advertising is something that I have been trying to master for many many years. It really started when I was 16 years old. My mother (yes I was a mamas boy) got me a summer job working at a company called Mandev Consulting.

Russian Bday Party

Took Isaac to a friends birthday party. Only at a Russian party would
the kids be served a cake like this.

I forgot the name but a small piece cost like 12.95 at most
restuarsnts. Amazing multilayered custard chocolate cake.

I forced myself to eat. Hehe

Traffic

I'm so excited. The road I use to get to the studio is being widened.
So my 20 min drive should be reduced to 10 minutes.

Doesn't sound like a big deal. However.

10 x 2 = 20 min a day
20 x 5 = 100 min a week

6.7 hours a month!!!!

I'll write a list of things I could do with an extra 6.7 hours later.
