chia pets beef jerky (c'mon, cold, dry, meat? YUK!) I love it too though. But the idea is just wierd. crotchless underwear...really...what is the point?

yeah..why so fucked up?

I'm so there!! No need for a generator...just lots of batteries!!

When you say Community....what are you referring too? What community?

I haven't worn underwear in years...

dude..I'm talking innocent elementary school playground stuff and you bring he/she's into it?? That's just wrong!

computer..right....with my computer! NOT ME! I'm perfect! Just ask me!!

a what??

yeah..sux.

FINE! I'm taking my ball and going home....I don't want to play anymore....

Thanks Oly...for some reason I couldn't find that link today.....

Cause I saddle up my horse and I ride into the city I make a lot of noise Cause the girls They are so pretty Riding up and down Broadway on my old stud Leroy And the girls say Save a horse, ride a cowboy. Everybody says Save a horse, Ride a cowboy

ok. seriously...everytime my computer refreshes itself, or I click on a link...any link...it ends up at my yahoo inbox. WHY? what is going on? And by refreshing itself...I'm not sure what it's doing..but every 10-20minutes what-ever I'm doing gets lost and I'm back on my yahoo inbox. My computer is possessed.

wait...is there a full moon....are we all agreeing on something...in spray?!?!! STOP IT!! NO! I DISSAGREE!!

I second that!! Although..my lecture was how NOT to get pregnant!!

gotcha....thanks peeps. Good to know I screwed myself years ago...and I'll be paying for it for years to come! spam!!

So I would have been better off keeping that card Open? and not useing it??

ok. so I'm the niave one here. If I have zero balance on a card that I closed 3 years ago...why is it showing up as a negative report? Granted..this was my "college" card so I didn't exactly pay on time....or at all (Went like 6 months without making a payment...completely SHOCKED that Daddy wasn't going to pay it off!!)..but since it's paid off, and at zero balance and has been that way for over 3 years...why is it still under the bad column??

is there a special overnight camping permit you need to get in order to sleep up top?

I'd be totally down for that. but not on a tuesday night! I can't do tuesdays!!

obviously, because people are buying from them!

not looking for a spray fest arch...just would like to know what you've heard. I have a couple of friends who swear by the franchise thing. I know of no-one who's been screwed by one. I've heard it can happen...but I've never heard of it happening...so I'm just trying to gather more info! Gosh..why so defensive!! Spray fest!?! No no..that's you, your the queen of spray! Would never dream of challenging you for that crown...you'd KILL me!!

how often to franchises fail? Compared to the % of other "new" businesses? If your looking to work for yourself, franchises are way safer than starting your own from scratch. There is such limited risk involved!! Granted..you don't actually "work" for yourself, your in business with the big guy..but I'd rather be on the big guys side vs. fending for yourself and competing against him. Arch..please share your info...

Her husband has recently quit his job (engineer) as well because her ice cream shops are supporting both of them, and their travel habits. At first...she worked..A LOT. But I also know the guy who opened the taco del mar/starbucks combo in ellensburg...he never worked at either of them from day one. It depends on the management agreement you get yourself into with the franchisee. Leanne chose to be the store manager (kick backs from the franchisee that you're more involved means you'll work harder for the success of the store). She works a lot. BUT...she's also at the point where she's looking to hire her management replacement and let the store run itself. But then again, she's also opening her second one...which will require her to work her butt off again...

in all honesty..I think a franchise is the way to go if you want to own your own business but not take the risks involved. Most of the franchises do the research and population analysis and will not let you open one up at a location that won't work. Besides...they do all the marketing, advertising, and well...work associated with start ups. Pretty low risk...just pretty hard to qualify for one. Takes some cash and an awesome credit record.
