Years in the making.

The photo group that I moderate on Flickr has 326 members, although of course only about two dozen regularly contribute photos and discussion.

Why oh why is there always a couple people who so have to dominate everything and always make trouble? Why does everything always have to be about them and their position and just ME ME ME. How can someone constantly manage to be at the root of all the trouble in a group, and still have so many arguments about how it's not possibly about them, and how they're just a good person that somehow always gets conspired against?

Do you hear that Mister Anderson?

And so: I got out my ban-hammer today. Ka-smash.

That is the sound of inevitability.

Felt sort of good. But my stomach is in knots because it's going to be a shitty week full of emails back and forth and fall out.

Ugh. [s]326[/s] 325

Home Made Pierogies

Inspired by our Easter trip to the Broadway Market, (e:James) and I made pierogies this weekend:

Making the potato and cheese filling:

Forming the pierogies:

Boiled then fried up:

They came out better then I'd expected, and we made enough to freeze some for a few more meals.

Red Tape

So, I started a business, and I think so far I've spent as much money paying NYS for various things then I've actually brought in. Hopefully by the end of the year things will be rosier.

The last requirement for starting this thing is that I publish the creation of my LLC in two different papers in Erie County. I have another month or two still to fulfill this requirement, but I've been afraid to find out just how extortionate it will be. I'm going to call tomorrow and find out. Hopefully it will be more like $50 and less like $500.

My merchant account I'm just getting through PayPal, so that hasn't been too bad. And it's funny, if you're starting a business account at HSBC they have you meet with a Vice President. Apparently every single branch has a Vice President working in it or something, so HSBC must have something like 20,000 VP's.
