Not much to talk about today, or yesterday for that matter. But knowing me, I can always find something to talk about. Nevermind if it's not insightful or if it even makes sense, but hell, I love to talk about anything and everything.

Lately I've been busy studying and trying to get a business proposal together to open my own restaurant. Don't know if it'll work, but hell, I've got to give it a shot. I've learned throughout the years that there are three things you need to have in order to be successful in the restaurant industry.
1. Good Product
2. Good Prices
3. Good service.
With two of those three things you can be successful-I still don't know how most fast-food places stay in business considering the food is crap and the service sucks. Think about your favorite restaurant and ask yourself why it's your favorite. Which one of these things apply to it? Most of the time you'll find that it's only the food and the service, or food and price, or price and service, but very rarely is it all three.
The last place I managed for didn't have any of the three, but yet they are still around. Anyone who's been to a Jillian's can attest to that, or at least the one in Houston. I want to open a place that has all three things and still be able to make it profitable. We shall see how it works out. I have a meeting today with the small business association to put together a loan package. If it works out-great, if not;I may have to find private investors.

That's just a little bit for today. Be back later, once something pisses me off.
