>conclusion
if all else fails then provide internet services. there are “4,000 companies with combined annual revenue of $30 billion” making money doing just that according to web hosting 2009. that’s just for hosting services like those you find in the web host industry review or yahoo guide to website hosting. many an entrepreneur has taken up web site creation or development services like those described in the yahoo guide to website designers or web site design web designers. those with a lot of money to invest go global and provide internet access services like subscription service aol.com or those who made it as far as yahoo’s guide for internet service providers (isps).
internet only revenue is for people who need to make money. they find the new revenue opportunities from the internet economy too substantial to resist. the new industry continues to make enormous profits in a highly competitive area that was almost unheard of prior to 1994.

living in san diego i thought work at san diego teleguide [paving the way for the internet someday] was fun. great weekends and people interested in enjoying life and meeting people. i spent weekends playing tennis at balboa park and avoiding the 3 live animal zoos tucked away somewhere inland. if there was a need to work weekends it was only because publishing live content on san diego teleguide was the chronicle’s highest priority. body surfing could wait. beaches and more beaches. off to lajolla for great food. further up the coast past long beach it’s weekends in los angeles where there are lots of great places to spend money.
there is only one “valleylist” and here it is.
NEWS NEEDS TO BE NEW (sm) with the sjpd howling at the moon all these years later it’s important to contain and compartmentalize their “jihad” problem. it all started around 2001 after somebody introduced me to “husien”. with the new and improved “ning” it’s time to contain the “hood” demonstration of unnatural exhuberance in “the reign of terror” update.
“valleylist” garnered a new appearance in tom tomtomorrow’s “this modern world“. i’m supposed to be the guy who was fat as a kid and then forced to flee to france.
just call me “goofus”.
