With the banking world turned up side down, we figured it best to tap the breaks for a bit. Got most the pre-planning done - but we will probably pause before we go into the construction phase due to the changes in the economic climate. Wait to see if another 100,000 people will lose their jobs next month... etc.

Holy crap smells like common sense wafting around in here! Now lets hope it is contagious and the rest of the country catches it.

My Dad always told me, "You get 1,000 chances to underexpand your business. You'll get to overexpand it once."

Wise words from an old man!

I'm proud to say that thanks to our great customers, forum members, and the referrals you guys give - last year was our best yet, and this January ended up being virtually the same as last year - so we are by no means scaling back, but until the rest of the economy straightens out - I didn't want to rush in to scaling forward either.

Maybe Larry should go into consulting as a "side line" business. Heck, Larry should've been tapped to be a member of the new Administration's Economic Team. Are you up-to-date on your taxes?

Citi just tripiled my intrest rate on my credit card. I get to opt out and they will close my account.
