You guys can all call me crazy, but this is it. I'm leaving Pizza Hut right now, this minute. I'm opening a store, selling used CDs, books, tee shirts, candles, etc, all that good stuff, and I'm leaving for CA the day after tomorrow to talk to some store owners over there, find out who their suppliers are, and all that good stuff.

You're seriously moving back to California?

I wish I could!! Too expensive out there though! I'm just going to CA, to talk to the owners of some of the stores I want to somewhat model after, and find out what companies supply their merchandise

Y'know, sounds like a good idea to me. I always thought Canyon County really needs an all in one "Books- Music- Videos" store. . . However, music's good too. Who wants to have to go to Wal*Mart??? There's only one local in downtown Nampa right now.

Peace and best of luck!

Please tell me this is not some sick April Fool's joke.

If it isn't, I think you've been bitten by the same bug I have*: the bug that made me decide to give up on a potentially lucrative career as a GD and go to school for a degree in Classical Studies and a minor in Anthropology.

Oh, and I'm going to fund my college career with a little hydroponic herb garden. (nudge nudge)

Good on you, sheila**.

Any thoughts on the name of your shop? I'm good at that kind of shit.

*it was about 3 inches long, and black with yellow stripes.
**I know your name isn't 'Sheila'. But I'm being an Aussie tonight, and that's the feminine derivative of 'mate' or 'bruce'. Too right.

Hmmm, haven't come up with any name ideas yet, just want something small town friendly, yet interesting, and targeted at the 15-30 year olds. Hah.
And no, it's not a sick joke =-)
What is a GD?

what a fantastic opportunity.
but that also means you're never coming back to connecticut.

Yes it does! It just means that when I move I sell my business! Lots of people do that, it's just a chance to grow my money, and work for myself.
