10 Rules for dating my daughter:
1) If you pull up in front of my house and honk, you'd better be dropping off a package, because you're not picking anything up.
2) Do not touch my daugher in front of me. You may glance at her so long as you do not peer at anything below her neck. If you cannot keep your eyes or hands off my daughter's body, I will remove them for you.
3) I am aware that that it is considered fashionable for boys your age to wear their trousers so loosely that they appear to be falling off their hips. Please don't take this as an insult, but you and all your friends are complete idiots. Still, I want to be fair and open minded about the issue. So I propose this compromise. You may come to the door with your underwear showing, and your pants 10 sizes too big, and I will not object. However, to ensure that your clothes do not in fact come off during the course of your date with my daughter, I will take my electric nail gun and fasten your trousers securly to your waist.
4) I'm sure that your told that in today's world, sex without utilizing a barrier method can kill you. Allow me to elaborate . When it comes to sex, I am the barrier and I will kill you.
5) In order for us to get to know each other, we should talk about sports, politics, and other issues of the day. Please do not do this. The only information I require from you is an indication of when you expect to have my daughther safely back at my house. And the only word I need to hear from you on the subject is "early".
6) I have not doubts that you're a popluar fellow, with many opportunities to date other girls. Frankly, I would much rather you did, however, if you absolutely must date my daugher, you must go out with my little girl, you will continue to date no one else but her until she is finished with you. If you make her cry I will make you cry.
7) If you stand in front of my hallway waiting for my daughter to appear, and more than an hour goes by, do not sigh or fidget. If you wanted to be on time for the movie, you should not be dating. My daughter is putting on her makeup, a process that can take longer than painting the sisteen chapel. Instead of just standing there, you may demonstrate to me why I should tolerate your existance by doing such things like changing the oil in my car.
8) The following places are not appropriate for a date with my daughter: places where there are beds, sofas or anything softer than a wooden stool. Places where there are no parents, policemen, or nuns within eye site. Places where there is darkness. Places where there is dancing, holding hands, or happiness. Places where the ambient tempurature is warm enough to enduce my daughter to wear shorts, tank tops, mid-drift tee shirts, or anything other than overalls, A sweater and a goose down parker zipped up to her throat. Movies with a strong romantic or sexual theme are to be avoided. Movies which feature chain saw wielded on un-suspected teenagers by males of your agegroup or general appearance are ok. Hockey games are ok, old folks homes are better.
9) Do not lie to me. I may appear to be a pot-bellied, balding, middle-aged dim-witted has-been, but on issues relating to my daughter I am the all-knowing, merciless and vengeful god of your universe. If I ask you where you are going, and what you will be doing, you have only one very brief chance to tell me the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I have a shot gun, shovel and five acres behind the house, do not mess with me.
10) Be afraid, be very very afraid. It takes very little for me to mistake the sound of your car in the driveway for a chopper coming over a rice pattie outside Da Nam. When my agent orange started acting up the voices in my head frequently tell me to clean the guns as I wait for you to bring my daughter home. The moment you pull in the driveway you should exit your car with both hands held high over your head. Speak the password, annouce that you have brought my daughter home safely, then return to your car and leave immediately once she has exited the vehicle. Do not attemp to come inside, or even follow her in the door. It is my camouflage face in the window. The red laser beam of light on your chest is also mine.

Mat and his mother...(I Got Slammed)
I called Mat today because he has several of my tools (Profiles of success, a few tapes, Rom 17...) and to see if he could send them back to me. I also wanted to take a pulse as well.
His Mother ripped into me. She said that I was untrustworthy, our business was a scam, and that all I was out for was myself. She said that I was offensive and that her Son trusts people that he shouldn't.
She also said that I was offensive. I asked her if I ever did anything to offend her. She said Many times. She said that I was way to familiar with her, her name is Mrs. Knowles, and not Barbara. .......
She said that all I want is her Son's money. I asked her when I ever asked him for his money. She said from the first day. I said that I never asked him for to pay me anything, and that I would help him make the money from the business. And I asked her how may times I came out there to help him? She said "You can't try to sell me on this".
She said that I should also tell this to Michele as well because she feels the same way about her.
I just told her that I thanked her for her honesty, and that all I wanted was to get my materials back. I asked her if she would make sure that they were sent back to me? She said that she would give Mat the message and that I was not to contact her again. I said "what if he doesn't return the materials to me", and she said "you can contact him by mail".
Man, what a lunatic! Her Son is 25 years old!!! Well, no treasure there.
I sent Michele an email telling her what her "friend's" mother said. I guess, she won't let him "play" with here anymore either.
You know, it just stinks when people feel this way when all you are doing is going out of your way, literally, to help them!

Not much happening...stalled by cheese and PN!
Well,
Not much going on because the last 2 weeks I have been consumed by cheese (pun intended) and Prior Notification. FDA has put into effect the last stage, so I have had to spend most of my time doing that, so haven't made any calls or anything.
My list is up to 70 names, so that is good, and I am pretty much ready to get started again. Of course, my belief is down right now, because of my inactivity. I am sure once I start making calls again, and start booking some meetings it will go up again. Amazing how activity really effects our attitude.
Talked to Michele yesterday. She is starting a desktop publishing business.......so her husband won't yell at her for being on the computer. I encouraged her to keep plugging away, but you know where this is heading.
Haven't heard from Mat in weeks. I will give him a call tonight to see if he can send me back my stuff, and to see how he is doing as well.
No response from Dan H. on my threatening letter, so I think I will let that one go.
Bill from Zinga is going very slow. He had to cancel Bill's meeting with him a few weeks ago, and has gotten busy at the store. BLA BLA... I suggested to him that he hand out the tape to his prospect and let me BAM. I will call him tomorrow to see how that is going.

Challenges at work
This week has been pretty much of a waste. I have had some major problems at Portside with FDA and the Prior Notice requirements, so I haven't been able to think straight, nor have I had any time to make any calls. I had to stay late most of the week. Hopefully, next week should be better.
Bill Hubbel cancelled Bill LeB aron's meeting Tuesday, because he had an emergency at home. We are still waiting for him to reschedule.
I haven't had any reply from Dan Harusa to my letter threatening law suit.
Monday I have a meeting to STP for Tom-Cheeseworks.
That's about it for now.

Tom-Cheeseworks
I called Cheeseworks and talked to Tom. He said that he didn't really talk to anyone but he had someone interested. His name is Rodney and he works at Cheeseworks. I called Rodney, and he is interested. He will come to Tom's house Monday for the meeting.
I then called Tom back and told him. I encouraged him to get more people to the meeting.
Excited.

FT with Tom from Cheeseworks
Jane and I went to FT with Tom and Delores. They are excited. Or at least Tom is, Delores is willing to support him. It turns out that they are not married yet, but do plan on it.
His feeling is that we just need to get people to do $300 a month, and have them find the same and it will work. I don't think he is taking into account "PEOPLE", but theoretically, he is right.
I brought Jane with me so that they could both see how Jane and I work together even though she doesn't have that much time to put into it.
We booked am meeting next Monday to either STP or make calls. Excited about them.

Suing Dan Harusa???
I have been on the fence how to handle the situation with Dan Harusa and his bounced check. Bill had suggested very strongly that I sue him to make a point if nothing else. But I didn't want to do that, because I felt that I would get stuck in that negative trap, and not be able to let go of it. I figured that it would be better to just let it go and move on.
I have kept his check in the office, and checked with the bank every few days in the hopes that he would have the money in his account, and then I could resubmit it. NO LUCK.
Anyway, today I decided to start the process of small claims court. With Vinny's help, I filled out the form and printed it out to get it in the works. Today I sent him a letter with these copies of the suit, telling him if I didn't hear from him by 11/17, that I would submit the papers to the court. I will wait a week. If I don't hear back from him by next week, I will send another copy via certified mail return receipt requested. If nothing happens, then I will decide if I will take it to court or not.
