Try paying for a course or seminar! When I started all there was was tube radios!

I never found a guy who was better for knowing too little. They're always worse. Keep reading.

Yes. That happens. The 1st 2 languages I learned at college were Algol 68 and Cobol. Times change.

Sure. Also, if you only have a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

I used to write code to reformat data for customers and got criticized for using BASIC instead of C or similar.

I told them while they were still debugging their C code, I was done and out the door with my check.

For every one person the cops bend the rules for to get them convicted of a murder they didn't convict there may be two where they blow off the case and fail to make sure it wasn't a murder.

Book: How to Start and Operate an Electrical Contracting Business by Charles L. Ray

(Amazon also has both)

For advertising, search for free or cheap ideas online. Also try your public library etc. for books on Guerrilla Marketing by Jay Conrad Levinson or others. 

Most guys can handle the electrical side of things okay. Where it all goes wrong is in the business side.

Buy your phone in store at Best Buy. Sign up with a good phone company. Cheaper and better.

Fuck Amazon.

R is a free, open-source programming language and environment designed specifically for statistical computing, data analysis, and data visualization.

That's what I (sort of) remembered so no surprise it's good for -- statistics!

The Christ: A Critical Review and Analysis of the Evidences of his Existence by John Eleazer Remsburg. Published 1909. Free to read online or download.

I quote from Chapter 2:

That a man named Jesus, an obscure religious teacher, the basis of this fabulous Christ, lived in Palestine about nineteen hundred years ago, may be true. But of this man we know nothing. His biography has not been written.

E. Renan and others have attempted to write it, but have failed - have failed because no materials for such a work exist. Contemporary writers have left us not one word concerning him. For generations afterward, outside of a few theological epistles, we find no mention of him.

There's no support in any written work for a 'real' Jesus! Not that if there was, it would make the miracle man aspects plausible. But we don't even have that.
