New York

Oct 09, 2004

OK, here?s the run down on the NYC event.
First of all, thank to everyone for coming out to see us. It was a great feeling to see the line wrap around the corner of the store and continue down the block. And they said we couldn?t draw a crowd in the New York. Well, about 150 to 200 of you proved that wrong.
All in all it was a wonderful event, with no complaints from anyone in line, or with the staff. I think that the FAQ Sheet that we did up for people to read while in line helped keep everyone in a good mood. We?re going to try to continue using the handout at any event where we don?t have the space to do the Q & A.
The most pleasing part of the event was when one of the Marines from Captain Littion?s unit came through the line. We were glad to put a face with some of the soldiers that we have been supporting while they are stationed overseas. I got a big grin when instead of ?Cheese!? I said ?Semper Fi!? when I took the picture. He said that he was glad I got it right, I almost asked if he expected me to say ?Airborne leads the way?? I?ve got too many relatives in the branches of the Armed Services to not know better. If I get it wrong, it is on purpose to bait one of my family.
But right now we?re in the air, on our way to San Fransciso, and the events there. I honestly don?t remember if we have one tonight or not.. I?d have to check the itinerary to be sure, and its not that important at the moment. I?ll check it once we?re on the ground.
Peace out y?all.
