     I'm ready to talk to some investors about starting a new movie chain.

Characters TW is hot talk show DJ Tommy West. 'Me' is moi of course

 TW  " Good afternoon folks this is Tommy West at KRST Los Angeles and it is "the Entrepenuer Hour."  Today we're talking to a young lady who is interested in getting involved named Cheryl Larouche.  Cheryl it's nice meeting you.  Can you tell us all a little bit about yourself and what potential business are you interested in starting up?"

Me:  "It would be like a specialty type movie theater Tommy.  That means I would be targeting not as many young kids, an older audience over 30. So like you just said people need to think about their heart and their colon and their stomachs as they get older so what they eat becomes really important.  But I also feel  a few health concious parents would not mind seeing their kid eat fruit as opposed to candy or popcorn while watching a movie."

TW:  "Now you also mentioned the quality of the movies.  So
