Sprite Step Off

2. It has turned into a Hollywood gossip board, a topic that I don't particularly care to delve into (although the "Superhead getting owned in interview" thread that I started actually didn't degenerate into the usual junior high brouhahas that are typical in PP threads).

3. My CPA/accounting firm joint venture I was involved with last year took up a tremendous amount of my time, and as a result, I really didn't have time to post or to log on only to find a slew of Hollywood BS threads. Simply put, I had a life to live and I went out and lived it.

4. I really don't have time in this stage of my life for a bunch of pointless negativity and juvenile behavior, which PP is infested with. It was fun at first and for a while, but after a certain point in time, it gets old and tired, and it makes you wonder if folks are just plain bitter about something or someone in their life. Misery indeed loves company.

And for the record, in 2009, my relationships with folks there actually improved tremendously. There were a lot less fights, and I got a lot more kudos for snappy retorts. Check my post history. So again, you DON'T know the reason why I left. And I'll say it again: don't get it twisted, LG!

Having a memory lapse?

So what happened to the joint venture?

It was for a one-year term with an option to renew in consideration of a full-blown partnership. We decided not to renew after the first year due to a number of major differences in business and work philosophies, which kept me from possibly making some really good money.

FWIW, the one good thing that came from this was that I earned $4,000 from one unfinished project that all went into my pocket due to a technicality that was not caught until the last minute. Because I had litereally worked 10-12 hour days for 4-5 weeks at a time over a three month period and hadn't made a whole lot of money, that became my Christmas bonus and I took a vacation to Orlando, FL and even stayed a night in Tampa while visiting a friend. It was a great time.

I learned a lot that year in more ways than one. Right now I'm putting together an entirely new and different business venture. I got several meetings tomorrow to see if this could work. I'm cautiously optimistic, but this just might work.

Did you think I seriously wanted to know this? But really 10-12 hour days for 4-5 weeks at a time over a three month period and your brag about $4,000? I knew your standards were low, but dang.

BTW again, the hair on that dude in the video reminded me of you when you had your permed mullet. Absolutely nothing about it made me think of Sen. But I bet you really got off on it. Is there where you learned about vaginas?
