How's it going Ray. Joe here.Nice pic's.I could see Eastwood movie's over and over again. Pale Raider and Dirty Harry, my wife can't stand me looking at the same movie, over and over again.Did you have any thing to do with connecting Eastwood with fresno talent, for the movie Grand Torrino?
I've really wanted to send correspondence much earlier. I can't believe it's time for another mixer again! Last one, you were asking about our projects...
Yes, I'm still too busy with mine -- I've probably two weeks of PR work left on current film and art productions... Would you know how that goes? - LOL! See my blog -- if I don't have over a gross of reports I'm still behind! - LOL!
Anyway, I hope to see you again at the next mixer and discuss interests with you...
