Gazin’s Screenplay for Mike and Lenny Episode 3

Blogcamp Contest Entry

Mike:  Lenny, It’s 5AM I’m not sure how much more I can take of this. I’m just going to shut my eyes for a few minutes.

Mike slowly closes his eyes still hearing Lenny yammering on and dozes off..

Who have you selected as your project manager? A voice is heard from a far.
Who have you selected as your project manager? The voice gets louder.

Mike: Ah – Ah, who is it?

Voice: What’s going on – Michael?

Mike: Who is this?

Voice: TRUMP! Lenny Trump! Do you want to be the next Apprentice?

Mike: Apprentice? I’ve got finals later today?

Trump: Finals? Yes, finals. Well there are two of you left. We need a business plan by 2 pm this afternoon.

Mike is in a drowsy state

Trump: You know what a project manager does, don’t you?

Mike: Of course, a Project Manager is like a jack-of-all-trades and oversees the successful planning implementation and execution of a project.

Trump: Ok. Now, name 3  of the many things a project manager can do?

Mike: Define the Scope, Develop a Budget, Create a Schedule and Manage Risks

Lenny Trump:  That was 4, I asked for 3.

Mike: Sorry Mr. Trump

Trump: No! Worries young master – like money, more is always better. And I like money – and beautiful women.

Mike: Thank You Mr. Trump.

Trump: So what’s my favourite band?

Mike: Ah!

Mike thinks quickly. It’s all coming back to him he’s a Gmac mac

Mike: Bachman-Turner Overdrive?

Trump: Very Impressive, How did you Guess?

Mike: Takin’ Care of Business – Sir?

Trump: Well Done! You must have had great teachers.

Mike: Sure Did!

Trump: One last question.  What are the 6Ps of Marketing?

Mike:  6? I thought there were 4?

Trump: Greg Gazin at quotesdaddy.com says there are 6. http://bit.ly/16MhJ6

Mike:  OK. Price, Product, Place and Promotion and..ppppp  I don’t know – Am I Fired? Am I Mr. Trump?

Trump: Well son, you remind me of me when I was a lad – well except for the hair.  You need a bit of work. I’ll give you a hint.

“What you need with Lenny and what you continually have”

Mike:  Arguments and more arguments?

Trump:  Think – Mike! Think MacEwan!

Mike thinks, surprisingly he’s cool calm and collected, grabs his computer and looks up the quote. Mike then reads the quote.

Mike:  “The 4Ps that make up the Marketing Mix should be 6. They forgot Patience and Persistence”

Trump: Congratulations Mike – You’re Hired ! Lenny… You’re Fired!

Gadget Greg on CityTV BT Edmonton 26/3/09 8:40AM

Another great opportunity to show gadgets to CityTV Breakfast Television Viewing Audience. What a blast it was!.  Incredible interview by Wendy Sandwith – it was certainly an honour to meet her for the first time – she’s pretty enthusiastic about gadgets and it made for a great segment!  Lots of Fun!  Incredible crew!

Four minutes is not enough time to talk in detail about all the gadgets, so in case you want to know more – here it is.

We looked at the QuikPod and the QuikPod DSLR monopod like  gadgets to allow you to take photos of yourself and more. We also looked at the Mophie Juice Pack and the Tekkeon MP1200 Cases for iPod/iPhone that double as a spare battery (Reviewed at G4 Tech TV Canada)  We also looked at the Ecosol PowerStick – Made in Canada ( review at Canoe Technology). Spare power in a tiny stick to power or recharge various handheld devices. The Timex Ironman iPod Edition allows you to attach a dongle or thingamabob – as Wendy calls it, to your iPod and control it from the Timex Watch. To demonstrate these gadgets, we used the Apple iPod Touch & iPod Video.

Feel free to ask GadgetGreg a question or leave a comment.

If you have any gadgets you would like me to review, please contact me.
