I think that at this point, it would be hypocritical to start worrying about how other people see us, especially after the things we said in that interview. People will see us in whatever light they want to, lets just do the project because if we don't there won't be anything to think about at all. <br /><br />I've been thinking about that money as something that's open anyway to whatever project is done next. If we don't get it done then that's kind of tough love.Max Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07108220037165787269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897678722606085916.post-13590857877466257792009-04-29T20:39:00.000-07:002009-04-29T20:39:00.000-07:00Also: mo money, mo problems.Also: mo money, mo problems.Carey Chiaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12760846285563055655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897678722606085916.post-19683468748788724062009-04-29T20:38:00.000-07:002009-04-29T20:38:00.000-07:00Here's what I think:

Lets get the $5 thing and leave it at that. <br /><br />Maude brings up a really good point about the stock market. I originally proposed the idea (mostly as a joke) because I thought it would be funny. it seems to have turned into something a little more serious and interesting than that, so I think that if we're really considering it, we should all sit down and talk about it.Carey Chiaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12760846285563055655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3897678722606085916.post-7139035658402255052009-04-29T20:20:00.000-07:002009-04-29T20:20:00.000-07:00Ughhhhhh,
