Pat won the municipal election in November for her fourth term in office, taking over 80% of the vote. Andrew was her campaign manager and did a good job. I came in for the final weekend of campaigning and the victory party.
Ron continued to work in Tokyo, Japan building the marchFIRST joint venture DENTSUmarchFIRST (www.dentsumarchfirst.com) with Dentsu, one of the world's largest advertising agencies. He learned a little Japanese and explored the neighbourhoods of Tokyo as well as a trip to Suzuka to watch the F1. In December, he was asked to go to Seoul, South Korea to start up and build the marchFIRST joint venture there with OpenTide (a subsidiary of Samsung).
Andrew continued his final year at Laurier and was the Campaign Manager for Pat's municipal re-election. He also built Kelly & Andy's wedding page website including rsvp response, links to their gift registry, wedding and reception venues and engagement photos.
The Disney movie that Tasha has been released for sale on VHS tape. Murder She Purred, A Mrs Murphy Mystery is now available. It stars Ricki Lake, Ed Bagley Jr, and others and Tasha has quite a few scenes in the middle section. Look for the pretty black and tan Shepard guard dog (the darker one is her friend Rawley) with the male German accent. Pat worked with her on her tricks for the scenes - most of them were done in the first take. It's an entertaining movie - two paws up!
Andrew was able to join Ron in Tokyo for a week and visited Shinjuku, Roppongi, Akasaka, Akihabara and of course Tokyo Disney Resort with Ikspiari and Tokyo Disneyland. He met up with June and got a first hand look at the construction at DisneySea.
