Dan: for what reason did the old ice cream stand close?

The local high school rented it and the profit went to the senior class. IDK why they don't have one, it was always busy. There is an established frozen custard shop(brick and mortar) up the road, and a Culvers.

Cool. I'd hate to see you invest in something which is set up to fail.
Good luck!
Good luck!

In california going as a LLC is a very expensive venture to start out...IJS

You use a pass through entity (LLC) for very specific reasons but the main issue with a start-up business as an LLC is that you pay taxes on profit regardless of distributions. That means you personally pay taxes on money you reinvest in the business and the taxes are personal taxes along with a corporate tax for simply existing. Take a look at the book below.

Thanks, I'll read that tomorrow after work. What would you suggest personally? I'm going to talk to a friend of the family that does taxes/accounting before I settle on anything.

Read up a lot on how taxes will impact you. My wife and a couple friends started up a business as a LLC without really consulting anyone (me included) and instantly owed $800 in taxes or X% of revenue. It killed me that they didn't even consult me, I HAVE AN ACCOUNTING DEGREE!!!!!!! ARGH

Scented PM sent.
So for the big union tourney, I will be pitching against the store I filled in at for two months. **** talking has commenced. Hopefully we win, because I fill in there for a week right after the tourney.

Show 'em who's boss, Dan.
My coed church league team this season...we managed to have a lot of fun despite a 3-9 record. I probably pitched the team to a couple or three of those losses myself, but I did manage to hit .882 (30 of 34, by far my highest average in any season in any league). Every single one of those hits (and the 10 HRs I hit) were had with my RocketFlex, which found its way into the team picture.

How did the big union tourney go?

A first for me last night: Mens leagues here allow stealing, and I straight stole 3B. Caught 'em napping just a little bit.

How does stealing work in slowpitch? I've never experienced that.

Very similar to fast pitch, only you have to hold the bag until the ball crosses the front edge of the plate.

Interesting. I wonder if more bases are stolen on speed, or if runners take off when the lazy catcher throws a rainbow back to the pitcher.
Totally unrelated: I won tickets through my job to a Somerset Patriots (independent baseball league) game. My hospital is sponsoring the game (fans get a cap with the hospitals logo upon admission). It's this Saturday.
I just found out today that I won the lottery to throw out the first pitch! I captain the softball team, so it's pretty cool and I'm going to wear our jersey. Now I need to decide if I'm going to throw that first pitch overhand or underhand.

Typically steals don't happen unless the ball gets to the backstop. I noticed the catcher and 3B not paying attention, and took off. Later in the game, with me on 3rd, we pulled off the old little league double steal--runner on 1st takes off for 2nd, and once the throw went to 2nd I took off for home. That typically doesn't happen either, but the only guy on the other team capable of a strong accurate throw was their SS.
Krunchy, that first pitch better be good. You should hit at least 60 on the radar gun. Even better if you can throw a curveball or knuckler. Regardless, just get it over the plate.

No stealing in our league, but we had something similar happen in our one and done city tourney game. I was at first and we had men on 1st (R1) and 2nd (R2) with one out. Grounder to SS, gets the out at 2nd and gets off a bad throw to me at first. I didn't catch the throw but got enough of it that it barely got past the bag behind me. Batter takes off for 2nd as soon as he saw the ball go past me, so I reach back to pick it up and throw it to 2nd (would have been out by a mile). Our 2B catches it and immediately throws home (great awareness) and throws out R2 on a perfect throw and perfect tag. Most convoluted double play of the year but it made it look like we knew what we were doing.
Ended the year with a 1-9 record, which is a side effect of being a middle of the road low-rec team, and the LD deciding to bump US up to mid-rec because we were the last low-rec team to turn in our paperwork and he had to many low rec teams. Never mind that one of the low-rec teams has gone undefeated for 2 years.... Next year we are going to insist on not getting bumped because it really stopped being fun when we were throttled week in and week out.

We took the 8th, and final wildcard spot with a 3-1 record. Playoffs are Monday. And we lost to the store I filled in at. Tight game, but they had some dumb luck go their way several times. It happens.
At the new job I work with a very pretty lesbian, with a smokin' hot GF. Pretty sure I have no chance.
