Im in Winnipeg eh, why on earth would you want to come here? :P

You might want to go out tommorow night, or tonight for that matter to Portage ave. This street is very easy to find. Do you have a rental? Anyways go for a cruise down there, tonight was packed as always, this is the weeekly cruise night, tommorow is going to be a cruise night too since its the long weekend, im in for the night tonight but I will be out tommorow night again maybe.

Here is a link to pretty much all of us that are here.

directing a movie, "the crooked e", which is about the enron scandal in america...
i'm just up here enjoying canada, it's beautiful...
i'll be here sunday, and will try to make it out to cruise night as well...

Thats cool, its fun to go watch them film sometimes. Do you have a car? If you need directions to the car show on Sunday email me or if you need to know anything else email me. The show on Sunday will be pretty big, I heard they are expecting 25,000 spectators and last year it took me a couple of hours to go through and look at all of the cars.

I don't know how many cars will be out tonight due to the weather. It all happens on Portage Avenue and is centered mainly around the Burger Factory which is about a 5-10 minute drive west down Portage Ave. from downtown. I can't really tell you much else to go see, there is a car mueseum but I don't know how good it is cuz I have never been to it. You have probably heard about the Forks. Mmm other then that I can't think of much else off the top of my head.
