Aye on the fluids. I've gone from one or two pots of coffee a day to zero for over a week now. I'm sneaking a cup right now. I tastes sooo good.

Have ya'll settled into "regular" store hours yet? How many days a week are you open for customers?

As a business owner, perhaps you can add some insight to this. Power Users, Ready for a Refill (Smart businesses try to solve the electrical outlet shortage) My feeling is, unless the business had the outlets installed specifically for cutomer use, they're off limits.

Howdy Young Lady! Wanted to get back to you from Thursday night . . .

Striking players or not, there has been no REAL football team worth watching since the Cleveland Browns left Cleveland. Oh sure, there are some folks who think they are back but they aren't really. For them the saying is true, "You can't go home again".

I couldn't agree more . . . it's how I felt when the Oilers left Houston. You just can't match the days of Bill Nelson, Leroy Kelly, Paul Warfield and who can forget the "Cardiac Kids" and Bum Phillips, "we're gonna kick the damn door in" Luv ya Blue.

Thankfully the saying about not going home again won't apply when this this ol' boy retires one day and goes home to the Armadillo. ;^)

Come see what PAR35 has done for the Foxhole at post 66.

PAR, when you are ready to make this a thread I'll give you our ping list. ;-)

This is a wonderful thing you've done for the Foxhole. Thanks so much for your dedication and hard work.

I wanted to put it up for one last round of comments and corrections. I offended some folks up in Seattle and they are complaining to Mr. Robinison and the Mods, so I better get it up soon in case I get sent on a 'vacation'.

We are open 7 days a week.

"It is almost as if people see the outlets as public property,"...

Interesting thread. At places that cater to folks who sit down in their shops, i.e., Starbucks and restaurants I can see this as an asset but in other places, just because the electrical outlet is there doesn't mean the juice is free.

It's amazing how many folks don't understand the cost of doing business. I have to pay rent to operate my business that is three or four times higher than my rent at home, a phone bill that is quadruple that of my home line, electric, water, maintenance, licenses, taxes, shipping, etc., and I do have to pay for the product you buy. On top of that everytime you use your credit or debit card a piece of that money you paid goes straight to the merchant processer, and out of my bank account.

One nice thing is seeing all the 'other' small business owners coming into our shop, they want to buy from other small businesses because they understand the importance of it./rant

Good post.

I will admit to hitting "rewind" on my TiVo when I saw film of Japanese Lieutenant General Masaharu Homma hanged after being convicted of war crimes...about fifteen times.

(I'm not usually like that, but having studied Bataan a little bit, I couldn't help myself.)
