Denver is a fine choice of location. We should have sack races across Colfax with Shmoo as the judge.

What, no, it was the real Ace. No, Gene and Paul get all the money. Huh? A baloney sandwich and a place to sleep in the alley behind the store."

Re: 2008 Convention Update
It occurs to me that you are not the only guy working there. Certainly it is understandable that a business owner may be away "on business" (i.e. tax write off) and others can sell guitars, harmonicas and amps that weekend. You will be hanging with musicians etc, who may wish to purchase products that can be shipped right?Realize the airfare, hotel, reasonable meals and transportation expenses are legitimate dings against the bottom line.
I had a business teacher who said our current tax laws make being in business for yourself almost mandatory in this country.

I will put in my request for time off. The only thing that will hold me back would be myself. I need to budget better.
