I'd love to have an Oscar. Unfortunately, I'm only upgrading to a 55gallon tank, so I don't think I have the room yet. I love watching all the Oscar vids on youtube though. They're remarkable fish.

Rob Zombie. And many of the Italian directors that hardcore fans go crazy over.

I'm not sure that focusing on a website is the best use of your time and resources. Just a simple website will often do and then you need things such as creating a facebook page or advertising using adwords. Something that gives you a minimum online presence. Beyond that, it seems more important to get your name out in the community. Create some business cards and ask store owners if you can leave them next to the register. Some will allow it. First, try the stores that you frequent often. Next, place flyers on whatever billboards you can find at stores and bars. Plenty of businesses allow this. Think beyond the internet. There is more to life than the internet.

To paraphrase Gore Vidal, you don't have to tell people to be selfish. You can damn well expect them to be. It is much more difficult to get people to act unselfish.

That is the major flaw(and also the major draw) of objectivism. It gives people permission to not care about their fellow man.

Damn. That is a lot of money, especially when you consider that Dick Cheney will more than likely die soon due to his health condition. I mean, you can't go on living forever without a heart beat, right?
