Speaking of interns, looks as if the abominable Ken Starr is messing with VXTK again. Our friend Dave must be laughing his head off. And Jeff--how about a few samples of the FBN intimate apparal line for Pete?

Much appreciated, I am at the Ilikai in Honolulu. I'll be napping for a few hours starting now. I don't want to give the wrong impression, the investor I am meeting with has the liquidity. Perhaps we can conference with Mr. Dennis at 7 a.m.? Talk to you then.

Jeff: I just got a call from our Ireland connection. She has an investor wanting to get in on the deal. It's amazing how news is spreading. I'm afraid I'll be tied up on the phone with her and the investor for the next couple of hours. So, I won't be able to join the teleconference with Mr. Roker. Please extend my apologies. Also, remind Mr. Roker that we're not yet interested in selling distribution rights. That will come later. Regards, TED

Hi Jeff; caught a couple of hours of sleep, but the prospect just called to change the appointment. It's 10:40 here now, appointment time is still noon, but he wants to meet for lunch at the Rainbow Drive-In for a "combo plate with two scoop rice and fruit punch". So I'll just post you from my laptop when I get back to the hotel, which should be around 3:30-4:00 PST. I must say that if I close this prospect, it will be a feather in my cap. I'll be pressing for some leads in Hong Kong, but no guarantees as yet. One thing at a time. best regards, Pete

Jeff; it was a fabulous meeting. Mr. Chan's senior advisor and oldest son, Lambert, is actually aware of the company through SI! I was a bit ill-at-ease knowing that he had seen my earlier posts, but he advised his father factually, and the elder Mr. Chan took no offense at all. I encouraged Mr. Lambert Chan to continue to read SI; he found the Chinese translation of "lurker" very amusing. Pursuant to our meeting, I have Mr. Chan's permission to advise you publicly that he and the group he represents have left a deposit this afternoon, in trust with his bank in Honolulu, for one half the amount we discussed. Upon his perusal of the remaining documents, he has assured me that he is prepared to move forward. I also invited him to contact the company personally should he know of anyone else that might be interested in participating, and he advised me that Lambert would be in touch with you. I asked if I could mention that he (the elder Mr. Chan) owns one square block of downtown Honolulu and he smiled and said, "Yes, haole man, remember; buy low. Then don't sell." Sage advice, IMHO! Mr. Lambert Chan's white 1971 Rolls Royce sedan caused a bit of a stir at the Rainbow Drive-In, and Mr. Chan was treated like royalty. I was proud to "unofficially" represent FBN, and look forward to your acknowledgment of the bank draft by fax. It was a most enjoyable meeting, and the food was great. I've been up for 3 days, so I'm going to have a Mai-Tai and retire. I want to be in good shape for the flight on Sunday. Best, Pete

Hi, Jeff. This is Alice. I am on TED's SI logon again. Please excuse me for interrupting your weekend. I would not bother you if I did not think this was important. I got a call from the manager of the Ilakai Hotel in Honolulu. He wanted to know where to send the stuff that Mr. Roker accidentally left behind. It is a leather briefcase and some brochures. He also said he looked at the brochures to see who they belonged to. Now, he wants to know how he can buy some of our stock. I did not know what to say because TED told me not to discuss this with anybody. I know you were the person in the staff meeting that was so thrilled to have Mr. Roker interested in our company. Would you please let me know what to do? I do not want to bother TED with this. Thank you. Alice.
