I think there’s been some confusion as to the “CORRECTION and RETRACTION” that we issued via Business Wire. We (I) accidently put an earlier version of the Red Bull Press Release out that stated that we were STILL in our construction phase which was/is INNACURATE.
WE’RE OPEN! We have been since Monday, October 16th!
To make sure folks weren’t confused by the line in Red Bull release, I issued a “CORRECTION and RETRACTION” which stated the change in language. I think this is where confusion occured. I’ve heard from a few that they thought that we DIDN’T open, due to the release, when in fact we had. Does this make sense?
Bottom line - We’re Open! Come visit!
Here are some links about uWink. Enjoy!

OK, sounds great… and delicious.
I know we are only one store, with many more to come. Hopefully soon. Really, really soon. But, what are the chances of a regional commercial? It wouldn’t have to be a budget-breaker ad with special effects and high paid actors/actresses during a primetime spot. But just some local 30 second thing to put out on the airwaves could attract DRONES of customers. And, of course, your loyal shareholders could spread the word easier through youtube, our own personal blogs, myspace, investor chatrooms, etc. I think it’s definitely something to consider.
For what it’s worth, I know a number of “extreme loyalist” investors over at investor’s hub who would probably work as extras for minimum wage (myself included) just to be part of uWink’s great story.
P.S. - Is the myspace profile for uWink the official uWink myspace page? or is it just some fan not connected to the restaurant who did it on his own?
P.S.S. - Please tell me what “hollywood paid us a visit” was for.

Nevermind. A commercial is a dumb idea. I hear the restaurant has alot of people there already. Congrats.
