Miami Mike says

Hey guys!!! I went to Rexall Pharmacy in Tinseltown Mall today to pick up some coconut water and dog food for Florida.

There was a rude woman working there asked me to leave and told me that there sick of my kind of people disrupting and stealing.

Little does she know that I own the One Stop Shop Cards and Games down the hall from here and that I have been here in the mall for 6 yrs!

So I just left ;0( .

Three years ago, RJ Dempsey and April Smith of AHA MEDIA were in a photo together for the 2009 Pivot’s Hope in Shadow contest in the Vancouver Downtown Eastside (DTES)

Today in 2012, RJ Dempsey is proud of his brand new clean lifestyle in Vancouver.

Since 2009, he has moved out of the DTES, leads a healthy clean life and has reconnected with his Mom 🙂

In honour of the ONCE in our lifetime, 10 – 11 -12 Day, ( October 11, 2012), AHA MEDIA decided to celebrate with some delicious OREO Cookie Cake!

Hendrik of AHA MEDIA says:

Hello kiddies, what did you learn in school today?
Today is 10/11/12!
Next year we have 11/12/13
(That is if we have a next year
or another day after 21/12/12)
What’s after that I don’t know
because there is no 13th month!
Aren’t we lucky to be alive today!

Wishing you all a happy 10 11 12 Day! 🙂
