Prince Edward Island

It's been a long time since I posted - quick note to say I am in P.E.I. for the next couple of days, and have just driven from St. John, New Brunswick.

On a shoot with Red Apple ( http://www.redapple.com ). The show is called "Opening Soon", and we are shooting the first day on two episodes. The director on the two episodes is Rina Barone.

The first one covered a German couple opening a restaurant in St. John called "Opera". Alex and Margaret run an incredible inn / dining room called the Dufferin Inn ( http://www.dufferininn.com ), where the food and service is truly first class.

Tomorrow we shoot day one on a restaurant opening called the Day Boat ( http://www.dayboat.ca ), to be run and managed by Gordon Bailey, a young entrepeneur here in P.E.I., originally from Winnipeg.

I have no pictures to post right now, but hopefully tomorrow. I am staying at a hotel called the Great George Inn, which has wireless high speed and enables me to post with ease without worrying about charges by the minute.

Quick mention: it has been surprising to see how many hotels and cafés have high speed as part of their free service here on the east coast. This is a good trend!

Citizens for Fair Legislation
For Immediate Release

********************************
CFL ALERT: ASK YOUR REP IN CONGRESS TO ADD THEIR NAMES TO CONGRESSMAN CONYER'S DOWNING STREET LETTER TO PRESIDENT BUSH.

TALKING POINTS:
*Please take a moment to write a letter to your representatives and ask them to sign Rep. John Conyer's letter to President Bush seeking answers about the Downing Street Memos. The Downing Street Memo is a series of highly classified documents containing the meeting minutes between Prime Minister Tony Blair and other top British government officials. These memos indicate that President Bush and Prime Minister Tony Blair had already made up their mind to go to war at least a year before the invasion of Iraq--contesting public statements made by both governments that going to war with Iraq was a last resort. By
mid-March 2002, a year before the invasion of Iraq, top British officials had already resigned themselves to going to war and seemed mostly preoccupied with building international support and finding a legal justification for the attack. These memos also detail how the two countries planned to instigate the war on Iraq by placing ultimatums on Saddam that he was sure to reject and by increasing U.S. and U.K bombing raids on Iraq PRIOR to the war in order to goad Saddam
into retaliating.

*Tell your representatives that this is not a partisan issue. Democrats and Republicans alike ought to be outraged that the President lied to the American people about a war that was not necessary and has resulted in the death of 1800 Americans and one hundred thousand Iraqis.
