Let's see, the other day I said I was going to update the next day - didn't do that...
But, here you go:
So, you all know that some colleagues and I started a business in November - the Online Business Institute (click here if you're curious). Well, things have been going rather slowly with that venture. Granted, we've been working a lot of different marketing angles - doing trade shows, covering the internet, breaking into the local market, but nothing is really driving the kind of business that we were hoping. Does that mean we're done? No, still plugging along. However, the downside is that since things haven't really picked up, that I had to re-enter the working world. Back to the grind, so to speak...
Fortunately, I found something - I'll be working the call center scene doing customer service yet again. Yeah, big bucks. Well, enough bucks to pay my bills. Work starts on Monday, and my stint as a phone jockey begins again. Hopefully this wont be a long-term thing. There is another project that has come up that my be able to give me the financial stability I need to be able to start working on OBI full time again. But until that happens, I'm a wage slave once again...
That's the important stuff. In other un-important news, if you haven't seen "Sin City" yet, get off yer butts and go. Also, "Kung Fu Hustle" is getting ready to drop a bomb on your collective asses, so when it opens on Friday, show some love and check it out. Have I seen it yet? No, but I did see Stephen Chow's (the director) previous film on a recommendation from my uncle. The film is "Shaolin Soccer" and it was easily one of the funniest, most bizzare films I've seen in a while. Who wouldn't like soccer playing Shaolin monks?..
TV is full of fun stuff - the world definetly needs THIS
Also seen on TV, apparently there was a void in reality TV programming. This void left open by American Idol only focusing on making the next POP star, was filled by "Nashville Idol" - which I'm pretty sure you can figure out what the point is. However, I'm not really sure what gave the producers the idea that Bret Michaels from Poison would be a great canidate for a judge. I'm more of a country music authority that he is...
So, yeah. That's life. At least for right now...
