Doug, did you used to be ezrider? If so, you've been to my town. It is a long strip with the ocean on one side and a river on the other. The land is 99% residential with a few small businesses in the middle of the town Most of the businesses have been there forever. There is not enough for a big business to move in, to say nothing of no place to put a big business. There is, however, enough residents in our small town and other small area towns to provide a nice living for us. Those others you mentioned don't have adult films either. Also, we are going to have music CD's (with a nice Folk Music section, of course), and a tanning bed. We will have a large selection of video games as well as foreign, classics, and other unusual films. Our prices and our return policies will be much more libral than the bigger companies. This is well thought out and I feel we'll do fine. We can always change our product you know. We also have deals with the local beach clubs in the works. If you rent a cabana for a time period, day, week, month, season you get a discount on rentals and I also rent the machines. One beach club asked me if it was ok for people to order in advance so the machine and rentals were at the beach club when thay arrived. Gee, I said, sure!

We'll be ok! BTW, it's very exciting to start a business.

Love, annamill
