And now I'm planning on starting a new busisness, so I'll be in pure investment mode. Hard times ahead, hopefully they pay off in the future.

May I ask what kind of business? I've been toying with the idea my entire adult life but I'm afraid of taking the necessary steps.

I don't remember which episode of the Steve Austin show it was on but he mentioned that Damien Sandow should have said "no" to the pink trunks (I never got the impression that the trunks were forced on him, which might be a credit to Sandow's ability to roll with the punches).
It seems ever since then they've just been saddling Sandow with increasingly ridiculous gimmicks almost as a test to see when he'll finally say no. It's hard for me imagine any Superstar turning down TV time regardless of what it entails. It's almost as though one of the 'Powers That Be' heard Austin's comment and took it as an affront; that the suggestion that WWE Superstars bear any sort of decision making power over their careers was a dangerous notion that needed to be stamped out immediately.

Somewhat related, Bischoff said Hogan's creative clause was overrated. At his peak Stone Cold didn't have a creative clause and yet, didn't have to do anything he didn't like.
I wonder how Cena is in this regard. He pretty much never loses so it's hard to say.
edit: In the end standing up for yourself (talking to Vince) gets you one of two things.
1)Push
2)Fired
I don't want to quite say it, because it is something that is getting popular only now in the US and Europe and virtually doesn't exist in Brazil. So I want to pioneer that and don't want y'all to steal my million dollar idea!
Also it demands way overpriced equipment that I am building with my dad (who is an amazing engineer) that is a fraction of what it costs. One of the reasons this busisness doesn't exist in Brazil is because it would be insane to buy one of these machines from the US; but I am in a unique position where I have the means to build it from scratch and, doing so, I am using my amazing brain to improve on your feeble yankee design.
So I'll either be very very rich or I'll fail in spetacular fashion. Anyway, I'm keeping my mouth relatively shut until everything is ready to go.
Mother fucker....

I liked the beginning of this story but the harsh reality of the ending left me a little disappointed. Like No Country For Old Men

If you want details on any of my million dollar ideas, I can talk to you about Pool Clothes, Slime Egg, NeoToilets, Johnny Glow and more.

Best of luck Sblargh! Ideally you hit it big and are able to buy a majority stake in WWE. Then you can put us all in positions of power.
Is it something I can build on my basement?
I'll be so rich, I'll be able to pay for John Cena to stay away from wrestling. I'll hire him to do charity work in Africa.

Concepts yes. My toilet idea is the best yet. Involves an incinerator. Also the Vibrating Dishwasher is going to make me millions.

So not only does Charlotte have one breast way larger than the other, she has inverted hips too?

People like you are why women feel insecure. For shame.
I'm pretty sure that's very common. Are your balls perfectly matched symmetrical?

You have to keep in mind that Austin and Hogan had leverage, they could threaten to take their talents to Atlanta or New York, respectively, if they didn't get what they wanted. Where's Sandow gonna go?
Ummm. Teach at Harvard?
Plus I'm sure Cena has lots of leverage and he's not going to Japan or anything.

Does this have any bearing on whether or not you can develop testicular cancer?
Mr. Enigma

Not sure how practical that would have been though. Vince owned 100% of the Stone Cold character, so if Austin went back to WCW, he couldn't do that character. The Undertaker repeatedly got big money offers to come to WCW, but he never did because he knew he couldn't do the gimmick there.

It might. Under developed testicals can lead to cancer.
I had it in the smaller one.
Don't matter now, it's fucking gone.

Court Bauer hinted at bullet club shirts being available in North Anerica soon.
New Japan fans can someone tell me what pictures got Taichi got him in such trouble that it got mainstream attention and talk of kicking him off the junior tournament?
Also some news:
New Japan is going America Wrestling crazy. I wonder if the New Japan fans in Japan are fine with that. Its funny though that they rejected Elgin now.

The Observer yesterday said WWE has offered a deal to Cody Hall. He rejected because he wants to get better first, and make a name for himself.
Good for him.
Fuck that took me like an hour to do bouncing back between GIMP, Roxio thing, and GifCam. For two god damn frames. I need to learn how to use the programs before I try this shit.
what does the Roxio Thing do?
