  • @mvnla I am only starting with local. I don't want to over saturate. Use a pre-existing customer base before expanding. Baby steps. Businesses must start small before growing. If you start too big, you might come up short.
  • @sunshine -- Party was great, both virtual and real, although real was much smaller. Nothing too strenuous planned for today, so should be able to recover. Thanks to all for throwing such a great party.
  • @mvnla2 you are very welcome! :) glad you had a good time!
  • That party was our pleasure. We are glad you enjoyed it. Glad you enjoyed the Montelena, too.
  • Yeah Ripsy -- I haven't forgotten that you were the one that told me about Montelena. I'll send you a virtual bottle, but I don't think it will be quite as good! Still have some left for this evening.
  • I tried the 2002 Chard a while back. Unbelievably delicious. One benefit of having wealthy friends.
  • This was 2010 -- So good I can't imagine what a 2002 would be like. Hmm .. I could use some wealthy friends. Will have to see if I can find some.
  • You live in CA. They tell me that's where all the money is. You shouldn't have any problems finding a wealthy friend.
  • @rd -- Yes, there are tons of unbelievably wealthy people in CA, especially in LA, but I don't run in their circles. I frequently wonder where they all get their money from; I don't think the movie industry explains it all. There are way too many wannabe actors / actresses working as waiters.
    Just think -- if I had an extra $100K or so for membership and $10K per year dues (not sure what it really costs), I could join Riviera or Bel Air, and play golf courses that are immaculately manicured and way too difficult for me! Oh yeah, I forgot, you also need connections. : (
  • I'm like freaking out right now... @Bubbleslover will be so excited when I tell her there's a space update!!!!! Not as excited as me though....
  • Got curious about the cost of membership at one of LA's elite golf clubs, and as usual, I was way low. Make that more like $200K to $300K for membership; the $10K per year in fees might be enough. It appears that Sherwood (which is where Tiger Woods hosts a tournament every year) might be the most expensive, and the only surefire way to get in is to buy a house surrounding the club (my WAG is $10M min). Riviera is not as expensive, but it might be even harder to get in.
  • @ABSM--What? Did somebody say Space update?
  • Who, what, when, where, how? Who, what, when, where, how? Who, what, when, where, how? Who, what, when, where, how? Where? Where? Where?
  • Thanks @hb. Whoo hoo!! Nothing scheduled for Friday except Space.
  • @rat no probs. enjoy
  • 8 days and 56 levels to go!

    I skipped over a couple levels and four tough ones are thiiiiiis close to average. If not for those few levels, I think I can easily make make my goal of completing all of Star Wars with above average scores in 21 days, just before the release of Star Wars II. Those stubborn levels have me worried...

  • Wha....? My SW leader board says I have 177 scores entered out of 229, but I count 259 levels in total. Which scores are not included? Or is there an error on the page?

    Dang, that means I really have.... oh brother!....86 levels to go!
  • @BPC -- You ought to check out the Rovio release schedule (new post on chatter page), if you really want to feel bad. Good luck!
  • @mvnla2, I am afraid to look!

    On the plus side, I figured out where the missing 30 levels. It seems they are for "Moon of Endor"... or is that the bad news?
  • AH! Well, sorry folks, I will not include Moon of Endor in my personal challenge. I DO have a life and responsibilities ya know.... REALLY I do! I DO!
  • BPC -- I hate to tell you this, but the Moon of Endor arrives 9/12. Plus several other updates before ABSW II.

  • Before We end this day..here in the U.S.A and all over the world
    Let Us take a moment to reflect back 12 years ago .Let's Remember that horrific Day and Pray each in our own way, that someday Peace will be in the hearts of all and we nor our children, nieces , nephews grandchildren ,won't have to reflect on a day like that Ever again..
  • Well said @Kathy! I am forever grateful that my birthday is 9/10, not 9/11. The memory of that morning's horror is still vivid in my mind.
  • It is vivid in my mind as well @mvnla2 my daughters birthday is the 13th so close.
    I'll never forget that day. I live near Logan airport at the Time .the next day was so eeerie..
    No planes ...just fighter jets patrolling in the night..
