They really liked it!! A great crowd showed up for the May 5 premiere of the show in Courtenay. Feedback was great and this was a pleasant crowd coming in from Courtenay, Comox, and Campbell River were really fun to work with.

This photo is of William wearing his silly Chinglish shirt with a photo in behind of one of the best shirt sayings he saw on this trip.

Sadly a rock smashed a big chunk of my winsdhield going from Courtenay to Victoria, but oh well… “it” happens!

I am thrilled to say they both said things like “Fantastic” and “Brilliant” along with a couple minor tweaks I have now implemented. So all is looking good! Yahoo. I hope you like the show when YOU see it too!

THis is Lynn Collier from Global TV on the Saturday Morning News. Good fun. You can see the spot here too if you like:

I guess if you see that crazy vehicle going by taking photos of your neighbourhood, why not make it a fun photo so you (and everyone on the planet) can be amused later!

Yahoo! or should I say Google!?

WORKED 22 HOURS TODAY. http://www.wrjphoto.com/blog/22-hour/ http://www.wrjphoto.com/blog/22-hour/#comments Thu, 22 Mar 2012 07:05:47 +0000 wrjphoto http://www.wrjphoto.com/?p=9510 Ok I am not working as hard as this guy in the photo from my new show who literally is wearing his shirt into threads, but no kidding this has been a crazy long day! No naps, No lunch, and a 2 hour break for dinner.

I got up at 5 am… I just woke up and since my head was spinning with pressures of things that need to be done for new show and just decided to start working. Went to bed at 2:10 am.

It can be nice to get things accomplished before the phones ring, but now that it is 22 hours and 10 minutes later… I should go to sleep.

Hope you all like the show and hope you all come to it! Cheers!

It really is 2:10 am as I write this, but I set it to go out in the morning… cause I suspect there are not too many other ninnies working this late! ;-)

Good fun. As you can see the one photo below this was a LOW CEILING and A FAN almost got too friendly with Nardo as he got hoisted up on his keyboard.

I labelled the CD for Nardo as “Evaporators on Neptoon” … sounds good to me. Hope you get a kick out of these. Go see a show one day. great fun.
