    Talking Making head way

    Thanks to the UK HEMP EXPO I was able to speak with quite afew people in the industry with whom I have yet to meet. I have gotten positive responce from everyone who has recieved a copy of our publication. I spoke with 3 distributors / shop owners in Ireland , 1 from Italy and several from the UK who are interested in selling our publication. I was able to get a couple more writers onboard as well as advertisers. Phil from WEEDWORLD was extremely helpfull and we just might work together. Kelly from KDK Distributors spent most of his time at the show helping me hand out both SKUNK and TY magazines to the attendees. Attilio from SKUNK did show up but spent most of the time taking care of business outside of the booth. I was interviewed by BBC and it was on air on Sunday May 6. So we handed out 1,500 copy of issue # 7 and we could have handed out more had we had them. We ran out of TY magazines at around 12 noon on Monday. We really could have given out 3,000+ magazines had we had them.

    I must say that I made a lot of NEW friends here in the UK and I look forward to coming back

    Take Care and Peace

    Well I am sitting here at Birmingham Airport and good thing that I got here early. My bag weighed 39 kilos and you are only allowed 30 kilos max per bag and only 20 kilos in total. I had to go and buy another suitcase to put the excess stuff into then I had to pay for the excess luggage. So I had to shell out an additional $250.00 This will be the LAST TIME that I travel with Air Transat as I had other problems on the flight here. Looks like it will be British Airlines, KLM or Air Canada for my future flights.

    Take Care and Peace

    Marco to use an expression I have come to like "you the man"
    Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain but for the heart to conquer it. Let me not look for allies in life's battlefield but to my own strength. Let me not crave in anxious fear to be saved but hope for patience to win my freedom.

    Congratulations on the most successful endeavor, my man! Way to go, Marco. I am most impressed with your approach at the last two-three events where it seems to have been a more professional style. Thus, no confusion as far as all of us just being aging hippies looking for an excuse to get high! For many of us, our lives would be in shambles without the benefits of medical mj. As you continue with your activism, I truly believe that the professional approach will get more noticed in a positive way to the folks that we need to impress! Stinky is 2 kewl, but he is not going to be taken seriously by the politicians that we need to reach! I have and will always feel quite strongly about that! Please, keep on keeping on exactly what you are doing now and you will move mountains! I am so proud of where you have risen in such a relatively short time. Canada has been waiting for a professional approach rather than outlandish smoke outs, to get 'er done! Granted, ME caused quite a stir with his smoke outs and arrests, but the time has come for a fresh face, whom is a legal medicial user, to act professionally, cool headed and full of facts to lead us the rest of the way. It is now your turn, Marco!! We are ALL behind you 110% Always have been, always will be........
    Take care, be well and rock on........
    Life is Good!

    Back home safe and sound! Pixie picked me up from the airport and I must say it was really nice to get off the plane into her loving arms. The flight was worse than the 1 going. They fill you onto the plane like sardines and if you want snacks you had to pay for them. Drinks you had to pay for as well. The meals well let's just say I wouldn't give it to my dog were he alive.

    Now it's time for me to have myself a couple of hits off the Volcano and call it a day

    Take Care and Peace

    Cool Glad to see you are back safe and sound, albeit a little tired.

    Marco did you get to see the new digital Volcano while you were over in the U.K.?

    The Digital Volcano will be available in North America in July if I am not mistaken.

    I did an article on the Amsterdam show so there is a pic of the NEW DIGITAL Volcano. So look for it in issue # 8 which comes out in June

    Take Care and Peace
