A really exciting game to watch. Glad USA won, but I think Canada got screwed on the handball call.

She should also be able to revoke her waiver of coverage, if that's what she did, if she's still within the election period. edit: Sorry for the repeated info. I'm a slow typer.

You might try your local SCORE / SBA. You could let them know about your availability to work with their clients as well as get help launching your business. Local chamber of commerce might be of some help too.

Last Summer my niece was waiting tables at a diner in Lowell MA. One day she's serving Micky Ward (The Fighter) and somebody else. She's on her toes as this is a local celebrity, not a billionaire but he made some money fighting Gotti (sp?) and must've made out OK from the movie as well. When clearing the table she finds that he left her $5. Not even enough to cover the bill, so she had to make up the difference. LOL

Congrats HughOne! I tried to steal game 3 with a big finish, but came up a tad short. Good luck in the next round.

Congrats on the nice finish in game 2! Take your time starting game 3. My phone's on the charger.

Uh oh, emptying your rack to start the game! I'm at the wrong end of Shock & Awe. Getting "trounce"d at the start.

HughOne, whenever you're ready. ljbrunlg

I'll give it another go. FWIW - Perhaps, instead of adding a 3rd game and the extra time that would take, you could just play the 2 games and use the aggregate scores if neither wins 2?

Well done. Congrats! Good luck against DMD

I'm in if there's still room. With 2 games under my belt, I'm 1 & 1.

You have the power, so what's done is done. The trade wasn't illegal, so I wouldn't have reversed it by decree. This should probably prompt a revision to the rules for next year to minimize confusion. FWIW, I don't believe in voting on trades unless there's collusion suspected. However, it sounds like it's the kind of move that's inconsistent with how you and other owners in the league view fair play. As commish I think it would have been appropriate to privately contact the individual, explain that there are rules but also there is the spirit of fair play and this move will probably prompt a rule change, and give him a chance (even though he's not obligated) to agree to a reversal of the trade. The originator of the trade needs to take some responsibility here too. IMO he's got to pay attention and can't rely on the league to bail him out if he's not on the ball.

Don't know enough about guitar to claim someone should or shouldn't be on a "best" list, but I really enjoy listening to Igor Presnyakov. Here's some of his arrangements of some popular pieces:

My experience fwiw: I formed an LLC. I did not use a website or lawyer. My state (New Hampshire) allows for the formation of the LLC by filling out an online form on their website. Your state may require more or less paperwork, or you may want someone or some 3rd party site to guide you. In NH it was $100 to file. An annual report is required, which was $102 this year. After forming the LLC I got an EIN (online & $50 iirc) and opened my bank account for the LLC. The bank asked for an operating agreement document. You can go online and see enough examples to figure out what to put in it, or have someone or some service you find on the web do it. Then I retained the services of a tax accountant to make sure I did everything correctly. If I were to do it all over again, I'd do this 1st. He advised me to file my taxes as an S-Corp. Sorry, I don't remember the details of why it would be better for me. He's the expert and once the decision was made I really didn't think about it again. He produced the paperwork, I signed, done. FYI, the decision to file as an S-Corp is supposed to be done pretty soon after forming your LLC. I find it's good to have him to ask tax related questions once in a while. I also hooked up with a local employee leasing company and signed on as an employee with them. This costs a little bit, but going through them eliminates payroll headaches and takes care of workers comp, unemployment insurance, provides access to health insurance, 401k etc. I have a full time contracting gig with a small company. So, what happens is; my LLC bills the company where I work, the employee leasing company bills my LLC, the employee leasing company pays me my salary. I think this arrangement was also beneficial last year when I refinanced my house, as I didn't have to say I was self-employed. I did an Excel spreadsheet to calculate what I needed to bill per hour based on what salary I would probably be looking at as an employee. If you would like to see it. PM me your email address and I can send a copy to you. You can find similar calculators online as well. Good luck! Added: I do not use a PO Box. My street address does not appear on my business cards or my website. Of course, it does appear on my invoices. You may also want to consider E&O insurance.

As I recall, Follow That Bird fit that age group pretty well.
