    Unrelated subject, but I had my wife call every customer that called in over a two week period to poll if they were using yellow pages. The answer was 1/3 saw us somewhere else, and then went to the yellow pages to get our number.

    Yes, that's Galactus as Doom's bodyguard, a powered up Dr Strange as the voice of Doom, and Odin as Courtroom Security. They got a little out there with Secret Wars.

    Thanos sees Doom as a threat. I'd love to see Doom as the big bad after Infinity Gauntlet 1 and 2, but Fox probably won't let that happen (unless this next FF movie flops). There are very few Avengers villains that will be able to succeed Thanos. Kang or Immortus might not be able to. In a...

    It would have been nice if they explained how Dr Strange and Dr Doom defeated the Beyonders. We know that Dr Strange sold his soul to attain godhood, and that Dr Doom was going around the multiverse collecting knowledge. Next thing you know, Doom is in sole control of what's left of the...

    This new Secret Wars is a bit much. Doom has had a hard enough time holding onto one Beyonder's power, and almost died to him. But in the new Secret Wars, he has the power of multiple Beyonders and Galactus stands at his beck and call? One other time, he took over the world, with Purple Man...

    It's more like, the money is on the way, so why not spend it now? I know that is not a good way to think, so I've paid off everything but the Camaro and the pieces of equipment with prepayment penalties. I spend $20k a week on business expenses, so when people pay late, it can create a...

    When hasn't Doom been cosmic powered? You want to talk about the 80's? In 1984, Dr Doom stole Galactus' power, and then stole the Beyonder's power. Dude's been shooting skyscrapers into space since day one. When Doom stole Silver Surfer's power was in 1966.

    Probably 25% of it is over 60 days. One reason is, I haven't written off uncollectible receivables at all. The other is that there are a few big tickets skewing it. I have a customer that is being sued for $5k, who we've recorded as saying everything with the job was fine. And I have a city...

    FF isn't that bad, they've had interesting story arcs. Let's not confuse them with their movies. And at the end of the day, you can't have a discussion on the FF without Dr. Doom. They go hand-in-hand, which is why Doom has been in the last three FF movies (counting the current one).

    Obviously, the Beyonder is not omniscient, because everyone keeps getting the drop on him. And the whole point of Secret Wars and him forming Battleworld was so that he could learn about sentient beings, free will and why they do what they do. If he was omniscient, there would have been no...

    Look it up. The Beyonder is not nearly as powerful as he thinks he is. It's been said before, he's a portion of the cosmic cube, along with Owen Reese (Molecule Man). Anytime he owned cosmic entities, was them easing his ascension of a higher level of cosmic awareness. As a cosmic cube, he...

    This is a little bit different. Batman has tech, but never wears it. Doom sleeps in his armor, which can withstand blows from Hulk and Thor. In Triumph and Torment, he comes in a close second to Dr Strange to see who the most powerful sorceror on the planet is. He's retardedly OP, so they...

    The Beyonder is not omniscient, he's omnipotent. There's a difference, you asshat. Doom goes above his power level? Leaving the fact that he's the smartest person on Earth in the Marvel universe, his sorcery rivals Doctor Strange.

    It's all about managing cash flow. When customers pay 60 days late, alot of times, we have to wait. Yesterday, we had 14k come in. Some days it's 0. We spend a lot of time chasing payment. I don't want to take payment upfront, even though my Lawyer tells me I should try to collect 25-100%...

    Not any more. Awhile back, I went out and bought the nicest of everything. Bad idea. I've had to buy equipment since then. I admit it, I got out of hand. I dropped $20k on a home movie theatre (maybe 25k), bought a Mercedes for the wife and fully loaded Camaro for me. Hell, I even bought...

    Yes, because characters in comics are never written differently by different writers, right? New to comics? Continuity is always an issue. I'm not sure when that quote was done, but Doom was more evil in the 80's, in the current era, not so much. Also, if Doom is god (which he currently...

    I don't have time to do all of the screenshots, but in theDoomwarlimited series, Doom is judged by the Panther God. The Panther God has the ability to look into people's souls, etc. He looks into Doom's soul, and judged that Doom's motives are pure in nature.

    Doom is awesome enough for me to have a signed art print of him framed and hung on my mancave. The problem is that the current owner of his movie rights has ruined him. Even when I was a kid, if the heroes were fighting Dr. Doom, I hoped that they would lose! He's misunderstood, his pure...

    So, since my Manager left, we've paid off three estimate vehicles, my flat screen TV, and bonused me another 15k (which I used to pay off some credit cards). It's amazing what actually getting industry average pricing does. The goal is that in three years, when my SBA loan expires, to be...

    According to the satellite logs, the last job we did came in about 15% lower than industry average. I'm OK with that, as long as I'm not paying him to do his work, it's OK. I believe I'm getting a ton of referrals. He called us yesterday, and signed up for another $4,300. He complimented...

    WWE is ahead of the curve enough that other sports organizations are copying them. The NFL stole some of the brass from the WWE Network. Probably in a few years, every sports organization will bypass TV altogether, and cut out the middle man. Vince McMahon sees the WWE network as his legacy...

    I agree and disagree with the above statement. The Attitude Era is over, and ratings are down, but it's mainly because the WWE is lacking stars. When the Rock and Stone Cold wrestled, ratings were double for both shows. People I knew that weren't wrestling fans tuned in just to see The Rock...

    The WWE moved from the Attitude Era to the PG Era to get better sponsors (as in higher paying). Maybe in the Attitude Era this wouldn't have been an issue, but the sponsors they have now will pull out. That's why you don't see blading-simulated sex acts-lesbianism that much now. Hell, Daniel...
