I've said it before but they are so good to me I have to say it again. 

Last time I was in town I took them a bunch of adult Angels for free.  I had to go to town today for something else and I asked them if they would take some more large Angels and a breeding pair of Discus for free.  They said yes and told me to bring some medium Angles for money and that they would take 10 more of my worthless adult Dots for about what they're worth.  I delivered the fish.  I expected to come home with $23. for the 6 medium Angels and 10 worthless Dots.  Ken gave me $60. because he sold the 8 free large Angels I took him last time.  He didn't have to do that.  I gave them to him for free only because I'd rather give them away to someone I like than slap them on the concrete.

I try to be nice to Ken and Twee because they've always treated me better than they had to.  They helped me out big time once when I had to make an emergency move.  Every time I do a nice thing for them they throw it back in my face by doing a nice thing back. 

I'll be driving back there Thursday for the wholesaler to pick up 325 smalls.  Ken wants 10 more large's!  10!!!!  Soon I will have more empty tank space than I know what to do with :o
Always move forward. Never look back.

?Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming ?Wow! What a Ride!? ~ Hunter S. Thompson

That's what treating people decently will get you......most of the time.  Don't forget to record it all, if you are still keeping up the books.

I'm not afraid of work.  I can lay down right next to it and go to sleep.

Hell yes I wrote it down.  I write down all my "IN" money immediately.  I wait until the end of the month before I write down my "OUT" money.  I put off the suffering part for as long as I can.
Always move forward. Never look back.
