____________

(A) The decrease in revenues of $106,697 in 2008 compared to 2007 was for the
following reason. One of our major customers was responsible for revenues in
2006 and 2007 totaling approximately $930,000 and $1,120,000, respectively. This
same customer is anticipated by management to maintain a constant level of sales
orders for 2008 versus 2007. Sales of merchandise for this principal customer in
the first quarter of 2007 included over $300,000 of merchandise that were
ordered in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006, but due to delays in shipping,
were not invoiced until the first quarter of 2007. Accordingly, the first
quarter of fiscal 2007 has a bunching effect of orders which did not occur in
the first quarter of 2008.

(B) Decrease in cost of revenues of $55,065 in 2008 is related to a decrease in
sales to a major customer who placed two fewer orders during the current quarter
ending March 31, 2008.

(C) Gross profits will vary period-to-period depending upon a number of factors
including the mix of items sold, pricing of the items and the volume of product
sold.

(D) Selling, general, and administrative expenses include payroll and related
expenses, commissions, insurance, rents, professional, consulting and public
awareness fees. The overall increase of $113,195 was primarily due to a $117,578
increase in stock based compensation.

(E) The first quarter net loss for 2008 includes stock based payments (non-cash)
of $143,161 as compared to $25,583 for the comparable period of 2007.
