I have recently decided to get involved with a new company called BookWise. It’s all about one of my most passionate loves, reading. BookWise is one of the fastest growing bookstore chains in America, and together we are bringing back that personal touch you used to get from the corner bookstore.

My Preferred Customers will recieve up to 42% off retail prices, with fast affordable shipping. My store is currently growing and will soon have a selection of 1.5 million books, CDs, DVDs, and video games. And all preferred customers will receive a free BookWise classic, 100 of the Greatest Literary Works Ever Written, each month that they make a purchase. This literary classic is available in three ways; a fully downloadable eBook, audio book, and a two page summary.

So here we are, another new year. I still can’t remember to write 2007 on my checks. And I’m still stuck in holiday mode,wanting to stay home instead of going to work. Still, I was thinking that maybe it was time to lay out some new goals for this new year. So here goes:
Move to a New House: we are in the process of buying a new house and will hopefully close in the next couple of weeks, so this goal should be reached soon. It’s going to have a lot of work to go along with it, including getting the current house ready to rent. The new house is almost 2000 sq. ft. of room and 5.5 acres of land. I’m already picturing the mountain bike tournament on that 5.5 acres. And I already know we will have several home improvement projects to get started on.
Get Grape Soda Records Up and Running: I got part way through the setup of this new business venture, but some attorney problems stalled things and then I got caught up in holidays and house buying. Well, this is a really important goal for me to meet, so action items have already been started to make this move again. I’ve had a flury of book buying to learn more about everything, from accounting to music industry stuff. I’m really hoping to get something up and running by march/april 2007, especially since I missed my initial goal of November/December 2006. The largest amount of work is going to be writing the web site to manage sales and licensing of the artists I sign. Plus a lot of reading to learn some new skills required to run a company.
Bike More: I really feel the need to get out biking more this year. Once we’re in the new house maybe I’ll have enough space to setup my trainer and get prepped for the new season. Plus, Shaun can now ride along with me in our niffty kid cart. And, the new house will be just minutes from the Clarence bike trail.
Well, that’s only three for now, but number two on that list will probably take up the majority of my time anyway. Especially since we have another little one due in April, who, along with Shaun, will get the greatest amount of our time. I’ll be happy if I can pull off just these three goals.

I came across Librarything.com in a posting on slashdot and I’ve been addicted ever since. It’s a fantastic online application that lets you catalog your entire inventory of books. So if your an avid reader like myself and have a huge library, this is a good way to keep track of what you own. Below are a few of the book widgets you can create at the site.

What was Pope John Paul II afraid of? Maybe he was afraid of finding out that he didn’t hold a monopoly on truth. At least Stephen Hawking is a more realistic person.

…and this would be why the last 5 CDs I bought were from independent artists. Looks like the RIAA is just itching to put the people its “protecting” out of business in the future.
