1. No clue, I think it's more because of the name than anything else.
2. No worries, I've got a list!
3. Hm... Obviously going to take some work to get a final sign design ready...
4. Good, see you then.

Hey...
I was talking to Jessica after we got home. She mentioned something that made me think... Did you hear an extra voice when we all agreed that the Tunnel Hill store was Highway 2?

Not that I can recall, no.  |

Hm Maybe it was just us. Actually, until she mentioned it, I thought it was just me. I thought I heard the building itself agreeing with us.
Stopped at a sign place today, brand new signs (one on both sides of the building and one on the pole outside) will run about ten thousand dollars. Same place can also handle any posters, banners, business cards, etc. we might need.

Any idea on our color scheme yet? We're keeping the white shelves, right? I'm thinking we use medium or dark Green and Purple and accent with a lighter blue and the white from the shelves. I've got a few sample colors and got some advice on what kind of paint will work on those shelves and the counter.

Oh I like that. Dark green though, I like darker colors when it comes to the greens.

I went by the bank today - got some information on a business checking account. Good news, they'll supply the equipment we need to run credit cards and credit card purchases automatically would be credited to the account.
Still to do;
Call Rome to find out about Sales taxes and such.
Go to Tunnel Hill City Hall for another Q and A session.
Talk to the paper about how much ads would cost.
Then... the fun part begins....

*Starts muttering under his breath about Revenue Department websites that don't tell you a damn thing.*
Do these people not understand the concepts of a 'Straight Answer' or 'Simple Instructions'? I'm either going to have to call somebody - which I don't want to do since I hate conducting business over the phone - or try to catch Danny when he's in the office and pick his brains over how the hell this crap works...

You hate doing business over the phone and I have an outgoing call phobia.
...This bodes so well.

Not the simple stuff like answering questions from potential customers and such, just crap like this. Let's face it, people make the mistake of underestimating me over the phone... and I can't glare at them to correct that mistake. Plus, it's easier to read people in person...
Besides, by the Power of the Internet, we can place inventory orders online, so that's not 'phone-business'...

Picked the brain of a guy I know, so I know how the Sales Tax thing works...
There's two last things we need to decide...
You know that if/when your parents find out about this... freak won't quite cover their reaction, right?
How are we going to divide up responsibility (fiscal and legal) and any profit we might manage to make?

Yeah, I know. But they'll have to deal with it. Oh, and I changed my mind on the Hetalia Day thing. Their potential reaction + lack of funds (Uncle, pay me already!) = can't go.
Um... remind me what fiscal means?

Money.
As in are we going to co-sign things like the loan, the lease, the tax paperwork, business registration, etc. or just one of us sign it, and how do we plan to split the profit (I.E. any money that doesn't go back into keeping the store running)?
