Ok, update on what is going on my life. I know I have been on sporatically lately. As I mentioned before, I have started my own company. I got incorporated early December and going full out building the web site. It's kind of social networking web site and I think you guys would love to participate but it's not finished yet. I hope to have it up and running by February.

I can't really say what it is exactly but you will know soon. I never worked so hard in my life though. Since it's pretty much me doing this with no budget (few months worth cash left and that's it) it's been a challenge. However, I never backed away from challenge before. It's a different world dealing with Venture Capitalists and Angels, trying to secure next round of funding here in Silicon Valley. The holidays are giving me a bit of break but the new year will bring full schedule of 80 hours per week working schedule.

I am trying to do some blogs to document my journey on myspace but it's been sporatic as well. I hope everyone is doing well and wishing you a great new year.

Ben, my man! You inspire me to put a little more effort into my endeavors--who knows, maybe I will be the soap-and-candle guru of the Southwest in 2007!

Keep us updated Ben. It sounds like things are going quite well for you. I'm glad to hear it.

I'm only 41, that still gives me time to wrap up my current obstacles and start at least one business of my own. Harlan Saunders didn't start KFC until he was 61.

Thanks all for the encouraging words. I don't think people realize how much work this is until you get involved with it.

Gigi, as I said in person, if you need help, just give me a call. I mean, I gotta put my MBA to use somewhere.  I helped a few people with their marketing strategies and all of them seems to do well. Maybe it's luck but they are happy with my help.
