I worked at Circuit City while I was in college and sold these. The catch was that you had to lock into 3 years of dial-up internet service at, like, $35 a month when other ISPs were charging half that or less. So you really ended up paying for the computer one way or another. This was just an early, early version of a subscription service. It was brilliant, though: I sold a ton of these, and often to people who said they always wanted to buy a computer but didn't have the money. It let people spread the payments out so it kind of helped to democratize computer ownership.

I showed First Blood to my 12-year-old, telling him it was one of the greatest films in the history of American cinema and his comment about halfway through was, "Wow, this guy's really angry, huh?"


"And in music news, #1 on the college charts this week is Better Than Ezra. And number 2? Ezra."

Just creating content - no insurance or bonding or anything like that. I thought about the LLC route: that might be the best option - thanks!

Just happened to me in the airport. I'm 46, my son is 7, and a guy in his late '60s who was on our flight goes, "Traveling with your grandson? It's fun flying with Grandpa, huh, buddy?" Large oof for sure. I don't look a day past 44.


But most of us are Daves!

A crummy commercial??!

“Jesus Fucking Christ, you fucking sack of shit!” has been my go-to for the past however many decades. His middle name is always capitalized of course because I grew up going to church until everyone stopped going to church.
