Ah ha, the trick is getting the right 4 people and not just 4 warm bodies to split the rent 4 ways.

If you are looking to explore ways to discover opportunities, let me know. Provident Partners office is on the corner of Ford Parkway and… Continue

To Bacon or Not To Bacon

The following post is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America. Do not follow this link if you are offended by profanity. However if you enjoy a civil discourse about the merits of pork in general, and bacon specifically, or would like to practice your French, then by all means, enjoy

well I know of Drupal, Best Buy's BlueShirt Nation was built using Drupal. Personally I think Ning has a great platform. However I know some of the guys at best buy and will intro them to you, Steve Bendt and Gary Koelling, I will do this via email later.

Are you planning anything in conjucton with the GOP convention?
