Bad News

Tragic news in the State Of Les ... the corn maze is OFF!!

I received a call the other day from the seller of the equipment, and the buyer of their house IS interested in continuing the maze and has decided to buy all the equipment, signs, props and everything to keep it running.

For those of you who don't know, we have a neighbor about 10 miles away who has a successful corn maze. They are moving out of state this spring and are not taking the corn maze equipment with them. I offered to buy them out and continue the maze at my place, and they expressed interest in selling it to Me.

To make the sale of the house more attractive for buyers, they decided to advertise the home WITH a 'home business' included (the corn maze). As time went on, some were interested in the maze, some not. After a couple months they called Me and said they have one more person who is coming to look at the house and might be interested in the maze too, but if they don't want the maze equipment, then it's all mine. So I patiently waited and waited, and unfortunately, the buyers decided to take the house and all the extras with it.

Now I've had people say "Build one anyway!", but I can't. The buyers are coming here all the way from Florida to buy the house and run the maze. Who knows ... maybe this is a dream of theirs to have their own home business. At any rate, I'm not going to build one 10 miles away on the same road. It just don't seem right. Soooooooooo ... this is one new years resolution that will not be fulfilled.

But this does NOT discourage Me!! I shall press on!! Do you think Sam Walton (of Walmart) quit after His first failure? NO! Do you think Oprah quit after gaining all Her weight back for the 10th time? NO! Do you think the Catholic priests quit preaching after being caught raping altar boys in the ass? NO! AND EITHER WILL I DAMMIT!!!

At any rate, I can still sell fresh garden veggies from my 1000 acre garden. And there still is the Mac-n-Cheese festival .. that alone is projected to bring in over 2 million in revenues alone!! And I can still publish my book, "1001 things that people do that are stupid". This shall not be the death of Me, but the new life of 10 more things!! I shall not give in!! I'd rather eat dirt than go back to society and work for 'the man'! "ASK NOT WHAT THE S.O.L. CAN DO FOR YOU .. BUT WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR THE S.O.L.!!!"

And if you don't think that there is a way to make money out there, then just read the Bible verse below and the story to go with it. Amen.

Todays RBV: 1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Do you know that a book sold millions of copies over this verse alone?? It basically said that this verse proves that if you ask God in the 'right' way, you can have ANYTHING! And people bought this book like crazy! So basically, some Christian made up this B.S. story about a magic prayer, sold a butt load of books, and got rich on it! It's like the Christian version of the housing scam this country is in now. And I gaurantee, there will ALWAYS be people out there stupid enough to believe it!
