A movie takes 90 days to set up completely, in UpState New York. If the Stars whoI wish to appear, don't get in touch with Tony Cee Associates soon, I will have to postpone the flick.

Big Mike Craft invites Reporter/female wrestler Portia Perez to join our Company- It is with a happy heart that I am able to write you all this early in the week. I have just spent hours on Canadian Journalisms Canoe.com. It is done with great respect for the news and it is done with very serious reporting. I have asked their contributing sports reporter, Portia Perez to join our little group in Saratoga N.Y. this summer. Our film will be better, with a reporter directly involved in the production. I will personally look after Ms. Perez and see to it that all our actors are responsive to her.
Big Mike Craft has chosen his Leading Ladies in WWE Diva's Melina and Mickie James- I have beaten myself up all week long. Do I want a known actresses or actresses?
The beautiful Diana Ross to be courted by Big Mike Craft and Progressive- The conversation this week between myself, Tony Cee, and female representative Frankie Spagnolo of First Sight is, can we convince Diana Ross to act again. Ms. Ross is one of the finest personalities on stage but does live a quite life. I have asked Tony Cee to explore a percentage deal with Ms Ross and Wayne Newton. We did make contact with Ms. Kim Kardashian this week ,but due to the disarray of her representation, we could not get any straight talk. Ms Kardashian has never acted but wears cloths better than any woman in the history of Hollywood.

Big Mike Craft Hires Tony Cee Associates as Film Representative- I have decided to stay with my old friend of 40 years Tont Cee, in Utica, New York. Tony has been an agent for 42 tears and has booked the best in the business. At the present time, he is in negotiations with Frank Sinatra Jr., and Wayne Newton. Tony has booked Wayne Newton before and knows him. We are confident that Tony will make the right moves as the general agent of the movie. Other agents may work with us, but they will and must go to Tony Cee Associates for the direct negotiations. We feel that representation by Tony Cee Associates workes for us in New York State.

I was personally very saddened, but the note was polite ,and stated that she had other committments. You win some and some you loose.

Big Mike Craft to offer the Legend Ernest Borgnine, a role for the Saratoga, N.Y. Movie!-
One of the greatest actors of all times is Ernest Borgnine. He was the best heavy of his time.
A man who is decended from Italian royality, and an academy award winner, is going to be welcomed to our film, if he so wishes.
Big Mike Craft to consult with Bobby Morris In Vegas for Wayne Newton-
It is back to Las Vegas for me, at the present time. I am busting my backside to get this film underway. I have a part for Wayne Newton , as a crew member from my past! I do not want him to sing any of his hits. I really want him to act, in a way I personally believe, he can! I will continually update Fest21 members and guests on the movie's progress. I am still waiting for Premier Sports to get back to us on Laila Ali. It has only been one week, and I know she has a new baby. I hope she and her child are doing well.

Big Mike Craft, and a few drinks with Frank Sinatra Sr. in the 70's-
I was very young when I met Frank Sinatra.
I was out in Vegas in 1969 for the first time and would go out every 6 months or so. I went a lot after 1973 when I got rid of my business partner Tony. He was a pain with his constant complaining so we severed the partnership.
