Unfortunately it's in the "coding" of this particular thread - I'm afraid that if I tried to rebuild the database on this thread - I'd crash the whole thing

Actually, the fact that I cook almost all of my meals myself, from good ingredients, was a plus.

She gives me grief about my cholesterol, but it runs in my family, and we have historically lived into our 80s and 90s.

I survived cancer, and the cancer had nothing to do with my lifestyle. I am 50, I'm 5'11" and weigh 165 pounds. I'm not too terribly worried about my health.

I worry more about my ability to pay for health care than I do my actual health.

Well, that's his on-air name. :D

He does a morning drive time show in Indiana with this woman, now.

From the looks of him.... I think I am glad I never heard him... :roll:


He was actually one of the nicest neighbors I have ever had. Smart, friendly, and funny.

Lot's of tattoos, and he had a mohawk when he lived next door. But, a really good neighbor.

CD


yeah.. he just sort of looks like a bozo in the photo but I do realize it is sort of a show photo.. :shrug:

Psycho poodle got groomed today. I had my annual checkup and lecture from the doctor today. Other than that, not much to tell.

I'm thinking about dumping a customer, even though I hate to lose business. This customer is a dealer of a VERY pricey brand of sportscars, making tons of money, is a real PITA, and seems to lose their #@$!! checkbook on a regular basis. They have not paid invoices from April, and just complained I'm not doing enough for them.

I'm thinking about agreeing to their request for more services, with a higher price that I know they aren't going to want to pay.

I am about to invoice them for June, and I am definitely not doing any more work until I am paid for April and May. That alone may send them packing. And, being owned by a very rich guy, they will probably stiff me on what they owe me. :x

That's how you get rich in America. :roll:

you know when i was in the professional upholstery business, I learned a lesson about being too cheap. I would subcontract for some local interior designers. I went to bid on a job and the "customer" said they would "think" about it. Never heard back from them. two weeks later i got a call from one of the designers i did work for to pick up some furniture at their shop for some contract work - Guess what it was?? Right! it was the Same stuff that I had bid on earlier - but they went with a higher priced designer - It really didn't matter to me - work was work. From that point on I did raise my rates and the image was that I was upscale and actually got more business from upscale clients


Speedplay.. makes really nice pedals.. they were fairly simple to make.. to they priced them accordingly... well they did not sell that well.. because other manufacturers had more expensive pedals... so they raised the price of their pedals.. they did not change anything else.. just their price.. and they then sold like crazy.. :?
