This appears to be an older interview but with the ship going down, this may be a good view. It's from the Crutch web site - the Q's abominable snowperson interviewing the Director and star of the film.

This is another good way to steer eyeballs towards The Q. But still, I'd like to see the numbers behind TMM before I do backflips.
It seems we are headed in a good direction, thats for sure. Why would these companies partner up if The Q was in shambles financially? I dont think that is the case, but i sure would like to see the numbers.

Interesting PR... this will give QBID investors another method to "biatch" at Frankie boy about the PPS using SMS text message. Better yet, instead of sending out DVD, Frankie boy can now text message QBID investors the audit info. LOL!

I sure hope so. Just thankful that I made a killing in IVAN yesterday and today. I am quickly wiping out my loss in QBID.

Doc: Do you know the details on this from your recent visit? SMS is just text messaging. I am wondering what they mean by mobile content. Do you know if people will be able to watch QTN shows on their cell phones capable of viewing video? I hope that's what they are saying.

Normally when we get a positive PR the PPS goes down, The Good News is... we solved that problem by hitting rock bottom first, then releasing PR's... excellent business strategy..
