I think my time table for getting a business rolling has to be moved up. Yesterday, the boss calls me over and introduces me to a customer who's been shopping in my store for years. The clincher is: HE'S STARTING HIS OWN STORE! He's in negotiations to buy my boss's storage unit's worth of comic book backstock.

My problem is the fact that I wanted...

Making progress! I'm finally getting off my ass concerning my intention of starting a comic book store. I just got in the mail some stuff/documents/rude remarks from the State of Colorado main agencies involved in small businesses.

Now I just need to find an accountant, line up vendors, write a business plan, buy a suit, find a store front, locate stock, file tax licenses, register...

Back from my camping trip. Quite a bit of fun other than the COMPLETE lack of doozers. It was horrible. . . all those slain doozers . . . little hardhats everywhere . . . the beavers got them all.

Doozers will work for...

Updated journal entry coming soon! Ask at your local retailer! More drama, more intrigue, more exploding muppets!! Well, a muppet, and a couple Isreali knockoff Raggedy Andy dolls.

It is exceedingly rare for me to find a movie where I can let my paranoid suspicions fly and there're dead-on. Most movies, I'm way too paranoid or cynical. To top the evening off, I...

Last night I started up my very first thread, and today I have damn near forty responses so far. I was looking for comic book store names (I'm starting one soon, I hope) and now have a wealth of ideas to to choose from and think upon. Man, but the people on this site know how to participate. I think that the store slogan is...

I have been to the jungle and have met Charlie! Well, not really, I just went to the car lot and had to deal with the salesman. Man, but I can't stand those kind of people. My last car is currently doing its impression of an accordian so it's time for a new one. Got to the Chrysler dealership and found something I like, but...

I've been instructed by Storey to make an initial inaugural entry. Hmmm...

Four score and seven years ago... wait, that one's been done already.

One small step for man... Damnit! This isn't as easy as it looks. I'll do better next time.
