LA MOME by the American Church in Paris' Youth Group

LA MOME by the American Church in Paris' Youth Group
After church service, we were picked up by a tour bus and were delivered to Champs de Mars by the Tour Eiffel for an outdoor sound recording for a scene in the upcoming movie "La Mome" (scheduled release date February 2007).

La Mome is the story of Edith Piaf the famous French singer. There is this one scene in the movie where Piaf's boyfriend, a French boxer confronts American boxer Tony Zale, and the filmmakers needed an American crowd... so we were recruited to yell and shout and scream and make all kinds of sound effects as if we were in a boxing match.

Great moment to discover everyone's hidden acting talents! hehe

The Marketing Man

The Marketing Man
It seems that "marketing" has become very mundane and very vague and most of all very pathetic as term.

What is marketing? I was asked this question at an interview... and I said... it's to sell! (c'est vendre!) ... The very academic and very French interviewer said that THAT is my "American" vision of marketing...

But I really think so... marketing is the euphemism for selling. It's all that goes around selling to increase sales.

So "marketing"... sigh... please, can't we just forget the whole "politically correctness" that we infused into every single aspect of modern life, and just accept that we're all sales, afterall?
