So much to do - so little time. Looks like I'm gonna' have to have my night shift boy do some programming for me. An inventory database. But no propietary software. Flat files. Then slap it on the web. Just guitars and horns. I notice the gear shop down the street has a worse website than mine. Cool. Opportunity knocks.

Had Mikey (the accountant) draw up some curves and graphs and squiggly lines to present to the board. Some interesting numbers. As of today, the average gross for the last three years has been surpassed. But looked at in another way, the entire rest of the year is business growth. An entire quarter - including Christmas. All is not entirely rosy, as my expenses are much higher than my predecessors. But just like the stock market, it's nice to look at a spreadsheet and see green somewhere - anywhere.

Oh, and the computer still seems to be working. Maybe I'll get brave again and try un-archiving all those files. Or not... I haven't really had much of a need to get at any of those files. All written in another era - most even predate the web.
