What's New:
An Interview with the BBC Ecuador...
I recently received the following e-mail:
Dear Mr. Grande,
Hello. My name is Cristina Moreano. I am the producer of "Radio
City",
a radio station in Ecuador associated with the BBC of London and
with
the
most important newspaper of the country, El Universo.
In Radio City,
we
have a late lifestyle show called "El Aguacate", where we have
interviews
mixed with notes of entertainment, music, sports, science, culture,
health, technology, tourism and more.
We are interested in knowing more about "the magical little disk
that
makes things happen": Pizza. This is why I would like to request a
small
telephone interview with you to talk a little bit about this
wonderful
and universally popular food. I only request five to ten minutes of
time and I can call to any phone number you would give me according to
comfortness.
Please send me your response as soon as possible.
Thank you very much for your time.
Of course I was interested!
Cristina wrote back and we set up the interview:
Mr. Grande,
Hello and thank you for your reply. Currently, Ecuador is 5 hours ahead of
Hawaii. Do you think it would be possible to schedule the interview for
next Thursday, January 29th at 1:30 pm (Hawaii Time)? It would be great if
we could have the interview on our live show.
Please let me know if this time and date is ok with you.
What follows is an actual recording of
the call. Andrea and Ricardo were the hosts.
I gave my answer in English and they
translated it in Spanish. This call has been edited with the translation
removed:
Thank, you BBC Ecuador!

Al-Haji Mustapha Asks:
INTRODUCTION:
I am Al-Haji Mustapha Zamani, Chairman of the National Energy
Committee under the Ministry Of Lands, Mines and Energy in Liberia.
First and foremost, I apologized using this medium to reach you for a proposal
of this magnitude, but this is due to confidentiality and prompt access reposed
on this medium.
THE OBJECTIVE:
An associate and I are interested in investing in any viable Industry in your
country. I would appreciate greatly if you can give me an insight into business
and possibility of nationalizing in your country as we intend doing in the
nearest future. We are capable of financing multi million dollar projects or
investments if only we can be guaranteed of fair-play, equity and total
transparent partnership.
I wait in anticipation of your fullest co-operation. However, I am available to
entertain any question/s concerning the clarity of this transaction.
Yours faithfully.
Our Response:
Hello Al-Haji. Thanks so much for writing. Frankly, we are quite flattered
you desire to invest millions in pizzatherapy.com We don't blame you
for your enthusiasm! We are an international pizza
portal with far reaching goals and objectives.
At this time, however, we are not soliciting
any investors When we launch our Initial Public Offering (in the near
future), you can be sure you will be foremost on our contact list!
In the meantime, we invite you to ponder
the following.
Have you considered the pizza industry?
As you know the pizza industry is a multi-billion dollar industry.
We suggest you purchase:
Getting Your Slice of the Pie An incredible well of information for the Pizza business!
Alright, the pizza business is not for
everyone. Pizza may not be your thing.
Have you considered ebay? Perhaps the
National Energy Committee has some used office
equipment or supplies. An old manual typewriter or a used copy machine can fetch
lots of money if marketed properly.
Maybe one of the members has a collection of comic books or beanie
babies they want to turn in to cash.
If you want to try ebay, you need a roadmap which outlines all the
twists, turns and inside secrets of the business.
How about writing an ebook? This may be your ticket to
unlimited wealth.
