This might not look like too much FUN, like a Game site or something, but I learned a long time ago that LIFE is not a GAME! If it were, I played it with my cousin, owner of Ben Service, Virginia, Mn., a long time ago. Did I win? How can you win? Huh? Email me at this address if you know "How to WIN!".... straitjkson@yahoo, NO! info@ downtownpublishing.com. Know why I did that? Because of software people use to collect email addresses that's why. Maybe I taught you something and maybe I never will, your call! Or address it to the webmaster, SAME PERSON! Believe IT!!!

Consider joining me. I know I am going somewhere. Do you?

Where? You may find out that there are people in this world, not on TV, who have REAL LIVES and going somewhere besides around in a circle. They get up, do their thing all day and do the same things day after day....

Is this YOU?

That is not true here. I am always changing. I am never the same person day after day. I change as much as the wind, sometimes. This business is evolving day by day. I am selling vinyl signs now. I will be recruiting shortly.

Maybe you've been recruited here. Welcome, thanks for checking me out! I hope you hang in there for improvements and such. And PLEASE consider joining, I promise to try to make it worth your while.

Checklist For The New Home-Based Business
Article by: Elena Fawkner
Article source: A Home Based Business Online
www.ahbbo.com
So, you've decided to take the plunge and start your own home-based business.  Congratulations!  You're on your way to true financial independence. Protect your business and your livelihood by making sure you have paid proper attention to the following: 
1.  Cash Flow
Do you have adequate working capital to support your business (to support you!) during its early stages?  Have you started your business part-time while continuing to work full-time to make sure it is a viable income producer for you and that income is adequate for your needs?  DON'T give up your day job until you can give an unequivocal YES to these questions.
2.  Business Licensing
Have you obtained all necessary licenses and registrations for your business?  Do you comply with your local zoning regulations?  This is especially important for both legal and insurance reasons if you expect to have clients visit your home office.
3.  Insurance
If you expect to have clients visit your home office, have you taken out insurance in case they are injured on your premises?  Your normal homeowner's insurance will NOT cover business visitors unless you notify your insurance company that you are operating a business from home and the insurance company endorses your policy to include this risk.
In all other cases you should take out a separate policy to cover your business visitors.  In this regard, whether you comply with local zoning regulations may be important. Your insurance company may refuse to cover you if you are conducting your business illegally.  For these reasons it is imperative that you obtain all proper registrations and licenses for your business. 
Another type of insurance you should take out is public risk insurance.  No matter the nature of your business, if you are dealing with other people (and what business isn't?), you should have public risk insurance to cover you in case of a claim for negligence. 
A third type of insurance to consider is income protection insurance.  If you have made the transition from paid employment to self-employment, you no longer have the benefits that went along with your paid job which may have included disability or income protection insurance.  You will need to purchase this cover for yourself.
4.  Benefits 
Once you have left the paid workforce, you may find that you have also left behind your medical, dental and optical benefits.  You need to make sure you purchase adequate insurance for these expenses. 
5.  Accounting and Tax Advice 
The best time to seek accounting and tax advice is before you start your new business.  Your accountant will be able to advise you about things such as the most tax-effective structure for your particular business and what types of expenses you can claim against your business income.  It is important to obtain this advice at the beginning of your business venture so you know exactly what records you should be keeping and whether it is best for you to purchase or rent capital equipment such as your computer.
6.  Time Management 
Make sure you have thought through how you will deal with the day to day distractions that will come up when you work from home and plan accordingly.  For example, if you know you will not be working from 3:00 pm until 8:00 pm because this is the time between when your children return from school and when they go to bed, try to schedule as many non-business activities for this time period as possible rather than taking breaks during your business hours.  Need milk?  Get it when you're out picking the kids up from school, not at 11:00 am because it's easier than starting that new webpage.  Remember, self-discipline is your best friend and vital when working from home.  Procrastination, on the other hand, is your greatest enemy. 
Working from home is the dream of many.  Don't let that dream turn to ashes by overlooking the "basics" of sound business and risk management.

Recent Events

In this column we may review past events and how successful each of them was. For example, this past month, my other art group I belong to, who will be migrating here as is possible, went to the Four Season's restaurant for a Christmas Party. It was an enjoyable experience for everyone involved, and one we hope to do again and again.
Next month I have been invited (you too, maybe) to the Minnesota capital on February 22 on behalf of Minnesota Citizens for the Arts to meet with Legislators and other "Activists". 
 
Never made it here, by the way. What a shame!

This is an entry to a Blog on a Site Somewhere


Hello out there in Journalistical Bloggerness Distressed States of America. I'm your captain yeah yeah yeah yeah! Comes to my mind! Yup, now it's who's gonna have the better BLOG?!? I will I will! AND with all of them springing up like zits on yer kid sister, how will anyone know where to start? I guess I will TRY to connect THE BEST in one spot... Because I WANT (And YOU know how US americans WANT- Even Uncle Sam WANTS- and there's never enuf, for some people in this Republicised Dog Meat "I can beat you at or My Governor can kill Your Governor whatever" Country. Hmmm! Well, let's see if this much makes it thru the editing process for this website, before I really get into it, but please visit my site, I think you'll like...... It's ALL GOOD If it is the TRUTH!

Tell me you wouldn't have liked to get next to Cory Rudl.
He was an entrepreneur of entrepreneurs. His site: http://www.internetmarketing.com or marketingtips.com
This is an excerpt from the email I recieved from Perry Marshal:
If you're an Internet marketer, your life has been touched by Corey Rudl whether you ever bought anything from him or not.
Corey innovated and introduced so many advanced practices to Internet marketing that it's literally hard to remember and list them all.
As just one example, take affiliate marketing.
Before Jeff Bezos and Amazon, Corey was already running what he called a 'referral program.'
More importantly, Corey was not only among the very first to use affiliate marketing, he went through the hard work of making the tools he used easily available to thousands of small businesses.
To a very large degree, Corey is personally responsible for the sheer speed with which advanced marketing techniques were introduced and disseminated throughout the Internet.
Without his contribution, it would have been a very different world for all of us.
As you may already know, Corey passed away last Thursday.
Corey didn't speak about himself very often, but one day, four years and a half ago, I got him to tell his life story.
It's fascinating to hear how he got started and there's much to learn from it for all of us.
I think it's also a good way to remember this remarkable man who contributed so much to our industry.

Also see SEO page for more on Cory Rudl. I am striving to follow steps to stay on the path that Cory helped me get on.
What if? It ALL doesn't add up?

Are you a Sierra Club Member Here's the Local site

Handheld Gaming's Next Wave Wednesday March 23, 2005 1:00PM PT PSP The next generation of home consoles is still some time away, but the handheld war has already arrived. The Big N (or "Nintendo" for those of you with a life) has long dominated the handheld market, but rival Sony has entered the fray with both controllers blazing. Its entry in the battle, PlayStation Portable (henceforth known as the PSP), goes on sale at midnight. Naturally, the unwelcome competition has Nintendo fearing for its fiscal future, and rightly so. Sales of Sony's game playin', movie watchin', music rockin' machine are expected to be brisk. Searches are certainly heating up on the $249.99 (plus tax) toy -- over the past month, we've seen mondo spikes on "Sony PlayStation Portable" (+378%), "Sony PSP release date (+422%) ," and "Sony PSP games" (+71%). Part of what makes the PSP so powerful is its ability to do more than just play Qbert. Searches on "PSP movies" and "PSP music" indicate fans are eager to learn more about its multimedia talents (hint: your DVDs aren't gonna work). Interest in the PSP's lineup of games is a decidedly mixed bag. Big gun title "Metal Gear Acid" isn't garnering many searches, but queries on "Twisted Metal Head-On" are on the rise. We're also seeing a stampede of searches on "PSP review," indicating many gamers will take a wait-and-see approach before trading in their Game Boys. Reported via YAHOO! March 30, 2005

I'd like to see us all go here!
