Fantastic news and fantastic opportunity. Congrats @LiveWire_DK and the team @LiveWireCalgary

@TonySeskus Should I be taking my talents to Myspace instead? 🐐

[Omar Sherif @byomarsherif]

I was encouraged to use X or Twitter or whatever we call it now more often, so I guess I should tweeting out my stories now? 😀
