There are so many fees associated with credit card processing that it is very difficult for any business owner or manager to understand how much it is costing and whether or not there is any waste. I created the web site to help people become better informed.

There are so many different fees it is difficult for the average business owner to sort it all out and determine exactly what they are paying and whether they may be paying too much.

I will not return to Baton Rouge for any reason, including any games scheduled for the end of this season or a contemplated next season. No person, much less the owner of NFL team, should have either he, his family or his friends subjected to this form of danger, intimidation and abuse.

Our mission has always been to help investors create win-win scenarios that benefit both the troubled homeowner and the investor.

My only rule: If you show up with fleas, I kill the owner and the dog.

My precept to all who build is, that the owner should be an ornament to the house, and not the house to the owner

I will use the next few days to speak to my club owner and attempt to resolve the situation.

I was the youngest guy in the union. At 14! A pianist around there who became my mentor for a little while, gave me my first night club job. I was 17 or so. My father asked the club owner to watch me so I didn't get into any wrong things, ladies and drink and this and that.

I think the timing today, the timing now, the timing this year was right, and I took advantage of the opportunity.

Most of my stuff there in Denison is on Saturdays. I have been part of that show for seven years now and it is my life. I absolutely love the people there and the band.

What irritates me about it is I know they haven't gotten gas in days. Their gas came in four or five days ago. The previous owner wouldn't change his prices, either up or down, until he got another load of gas. It's just a matter of profiteering, pure and simple.

Without referring to anybody directly, one of the problems with confrontational public negotiating is that it runs the risk of alienating a public with a median family income of $35,000. So that when a player is complaining publicly that he's only being paid $7-million a year instead of $9-million, a fan can look at that with real anger. And an owner who's challenged publicly may simply become more locked in and less apt to ever compromise.

We're talking to another property owner on one end, and to Weyerhaeuser on the other end about possibly adding a piece that belongs to them. If we can get those properties in escrow, and the numbers work out, we're probably going to pursue developing that into an 18-hole golf course.

We need to get out of the way of the small business owner - and big business owners - and allow them to do what government can only dream of doing: creating jobs and thereby creating wealth.

We've had an ongoing relationship with the Boise community because of our training camp and our owner having businesses up here.
