Thankfully, when deciding on a location for my ice water business, I selected Southern Alaska, and as with the road less traveled upon, that has made all the difference.
Fun Facts
While that is true, stubbornness will not turn a bad idea into a winner.
On the boot-strap thing. I should have said assuming your startup isn't something stupid like selling ice water to Eskimos in northern Alaska. Though I'm sure there are some who could pull that off.
A good idea will not lead to success if you quit when things are a lot rougher than you expect.
Fun Fact:
Nevada has a law on the books specifically prohibiting people from driving camel herds along public highways.
I can only imagine this is a relic from the days when the Army used to experiment with camels as war animals, and private farmers kept camels to supply the army with. Apparently feral camels - descendants of escapees of these US Army Camel Corps - survived into the 1970s in Nevada and Arizona.
Beeks was the best.
Fuck off....
"The main characteristic of a successful boot-strap type start-up is just stubbornness."
Really? I would have thought the main ingredient for success is a good, timely idea for a product or service that people will buy. For example, if you started a chain of film-processing labs just as digital photography was taking off, stubbornness would only increase the amount of good money thrown after bad. But what do I know.
"Just look at the planning and thought, and subsequent outcome for Lewis Winthorp, III and Billy Ray Valentine."
Lol. Fun movie. Wonder if Beeks is still getting that hot monkey sex.
Fun Fact: When the market was in its 2008 tailspin, I seriously considered renaming my sailboat to "Sail, Mortimer!"
That would make a great Alfred Hitchock move. The Attack of the Killer Hamsters.
Wow I feel like I've heard you say that before.
FF: Hamsters are illegal to own in Hawaii! The climate is close to their natural desert habitat so if they got loose, they would reproduce like crazy into feral packs and run amok.
Smooth, a very nice, snug garage, as far as I remember. Heck, you could eat off the floor...Walls and ceiling, too. For the auditors, thats a Fun Fact, I assure you.
Fun Fact:
There are only 14 people remaining in the world who were born in the 19th century. 1 born in 1898, 4 in 1899, and 9 in 1900.
It's funny - I remember as a kid, a lot of old people who were born in 18- something, older family members, WW1 vets riding in cars at parades.... these people are all gone.
garage girl? I think I know her.
DOH!
Smooth, I was envisioning Homer Simpson pulling his car in and out of his garage repeatedly.
ok, in all of that...
BT, I do like the "Installation, removal" post. LOL
holy shit! any time you open the forums and find a thread has 68 posts since you checked 24 hrs ealier... you know it has hit the fan over something. got some reading to do. :)
Wow...
Appeasing you was not my intention.
You can think what you like.
Sigh...Va. That's a crock and you know it. I said again and again that groups isn't our thing. I said it several times. But you deducing that somehow I'm inconsistent because my husband had sex with two women, is bizarre.
1- having sex with two people isn't necessarily the same thing as group sex. You don't know the details because I didn't share the details.
2- not being into groups is not an indication that we've never been in such scenario.
And funally, deleting your posts to appease me instead of saying that you were wrong is, well, weak.
milquetoast. lol
There you go. Posts deleted.
I can't chuckle when something is being attributed to me that I've never uttered.
Furthermore you never saw me state that we never do groups. Please try to read a bit more carefully next time.
A lot of stories? Icks. The one time that I talk about a swing party and multiple partners the assumption is that I am contradictory? Wtf? How did you deduce that we were in a group fuck?
