GM's thread about nothing (35 Viewers)

[cosjobs]

Decided to put Albert Oaks up for sale.

I'm tired.

####, man. What's next?

first I'll need to move. Need a place big enough to bring the folks and also an office to keep doing the neurofeedback. I hate to leave, but I just have zero capitalization despite a ton of equity. Good news is that is very lightly encumbered, so I'll get most of the sale price. But it might take a while to sell a 14/14 on two acres with a commercial kitchen.

Seriously let me know what you are asking.

$1.8mm, will owner finance half of it. 1.7 if we start negotiations before I sign the realtors contract.

Perhaps a permanent GMTAN retreat/indoctrination camp?

I'm game. Have Colin write it up. 10 shares at 150k each.

 

[cosjobs]

Cos, could you bring in some equity investors?

I'm willing, but unsure how to go about it. Did I mention I'm exhausted? I do know how to sell it, so that's the most likely path

 

[Abraham]

Cos, I'm sorry to hear. I know the place is a part of you and you've worked hard. But choosing this route now gives you a chance to pick the ending you want, the ending that benefits you most. There are much worse things in the world.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Just how many remakes of the Super Bowl Shuffle were there? Talk about a creative dry spell.

Yeah that's why I decided to go ahead and list it. It's sad for wife and I, but it's not like the end of the world, assuming we can find a buyer. But that's the rub, the size and prove really limits prospective customers. But what it really came down to was that my posting in here is down over 50% this year and I feel a duty to try and maintain my obligation to GMTAN

Youngest niece just made her mom a grandma for the first time. Really sweet kid (24), she and her husband are teachers in China.

Named their son Xavier Pio. F'n Jesuits.

How is "Pio" pronounced?

It's pronounced "Cugat"

You, me, Layne, and cos may be the only people here who get that.

 

[5-ish Finkle]

Only complaints were subpar strip clubs and a drunken, homeless, Native American trying to fight them at 2 in the afternoon

That sounds more like free entertainment than a complaint to me.

I'm picturing Chief from Cuckoo's Nest chasing someone down to the EMP.

Walking through a Hare Krishna festival. One of the booths has a banner that says "Questions & Answers".

[Dan Lambskin]

Zooks is my hero. Closest I ever got to sex at work was makin out with a chick in the stock room of Ponderosa.

I felt a chick up in the freezer at Dairy Queen.

A fat girl showed me her boobs in the back room of a Pet Supplies Plus

 

[kevzilla]

Love me some Zooks. But I must say that Inuit ex-cons pale in comparison to soccer moms. Tread lightly.

At least your priorities are in the right place.

Can't wait to see your listing on Trulia/Zillow. I think coshole should be a historical event included on the listing. It probably deserves a historical marker of some sort.

Agreed, though if that doesn't get folks running for the hills I don't know what will.

We know at least one of the door locks work - just ask Gusher.

You've been missed around here, GB.

Price includes custom brick pizza oven

would be an ideal home for wayward cats. Could probably house 800 or so

 

[Chaos Commish]

Cos, I saw the word exhausted a couple times and want to congratulate you and your wife on the obviously outstanding job done and even more for this tough decision. Great choice, and best of luck, brother. It was exhaustion that drove me to sell. I could have added staff and wrecked the bottom line. I could have downsized to ease the load and... wrecked the bottom line. I couldn't go on as things were. Lots of equity, income usually matched expenses, very little extra, even less time. 13 months out and I'm still charging my batteries, a little unwilling to exhaust myself again... ever.

So sorry I wasn't more helpful with your commercial growing queries, but once the place is sold and you've washed your hands, I think you'll understand.

On to better.

[Tiger Fan]

Looking for some thoughts on my situation:

This week one of my fraternity brothers died. We started out as decent friends freshmen year, but after that we pretty much hated each other. I honestly don't remember what triggered why we didn't get along (most likely fraternity politics and he turned to drugs), but we hadn't seen each other since he left school. He however remained friends with some of my friends (he was really the only person in the whole fraternity that I honestly didn't like as a person).

By no means whatsoever am I glad he's gone, but I'd be lying if I said I lost any sleep over the fact that he passed. Now where I'm torn is that he remained friends with some of my friends....I'm sure some of them still remember we didn't get along and some of them don't....so I don't think anyone will think anything of it if I go to the services...but if I don't go, I think some might think I'm a d-bag for not going.

Do I go to the services? If I did, it would be more in support of my friends more than a tribute to him I'm honestly torn here and can't help but feeling a bit selfish in my thoughts...but it is what is.

No TPW needed, just need some opinions on my situation.

Please and Thank You.

FWIW...I went. Glad I did. I think in general, his brother (good kid) and mom (who I had never met before) seemed uplifted that there was a good turnout. Not that they didn't expect it nor did one more person showing up make it so; but perhaps it made it a tad easier for them

And if the girl who he (the deceased) passed dirty polaroids of around the frat house after they broke up showed up....I could too.

Now off to get some rest before I get at a beer tasting tonight

 

[McGarnicle]

This place Burnt Hickory Brewery has an open house once a month. Just came from there and then the plan was to smoke a bowl, drink more beer and lay in the pool. But noooooooooo...wife's gotta stop at the supermarket while I sit here and lose my buzz. Dammit.

 

[Guster]

Man, I could go for some huevos rancheros.

And some of cos' migas

I'll never forget Stu just staring at me, mouth somewhat agape, as cos piled a third helping of those onto my plate (I had already eaten mine and Romo's). Embarrassing, for sure, but oh man those migas.

I was too busy shoveling them into mine own gullet to notice. Jesus, they were good. I think Gusher & Uni did the dishes, no?

Yeah, cos guilted us into doing the dishes and then Uni ended up getting a concussion while we were doing them

I don't remember that. Did the swinging spigot knock him in the head?

Actually it was the corner of the metal drying rack/shelf. He kept forgetting it was there and would lift his head up and *whack*

I was thinking more like 1.8M shares at $1 each.

On the bright side, if it's the place you thought you would die and you get out of there fast, maybe you won't have to die!

It's at the very least High Concentrate Michigan.

Playing golf on the banks of Lake Michigan on Thursday. Supposes to be a really nice course. The kind that won't take kindly to a drunk sleeping in golf cart.

Then it's on to Lake Huron for a weekend at a cabin.

Beers are terrific, weather is perfect, smoking ribs today, boys out fishing. Man....this is good living.

Had my first crawfish today.

Boiled? In Wisconsin? Only reason I ask bc it's getting towards the end of the season and the shells are getting hard. We cooked them today, and I had to cook them longer and soak them for about twice as long as normal. They were still good , just had to improvise.
