You want to set up a company or just provide like an online service?

Like you want to do something with trucking maybe, or just provide your skills as a webmaster or something?

I know someone who makes a decent bit of change buying stuff dirt cheap at garage sales and selling it for dollars on ebay too. I could see that becoming a fun hobby if you\'re able to get around your area like that...

Dunno, bud.

You can always start an internet gay porn company. You\'d have your biggest fanbase right here. Wouldn\'t look for talent here though.

I was about to start a web site that focused on user reviews for local services in their area.  For example when you need a good, reliable Plumber or HVAC repairman who the hell ya gonna call?  You just browse through the phone book or internets and hope the company with the slick ad doesn\'t try and rip you off.

Same goes for mechanics.  Ugh it can be a challenge finding a decent one.  I actually found out two guys with a radio show called Click & Clack have user reviews for local mechanics with a decent setup but their site is busted.

Site revenue could be from advertisements from companies with services to sell and would show up based on the users\' zip code.

Dumb idea?  I never got around to creating it but still toy with the thought every so often.

I\'m being totally seriously now. Follow through on that idea. I would definitely use it if there was a service like that available.

T-shirt site. Sell T-shirts that offer any kind of embroidered text.

Offer all kinds of messages from Political cynicism, satire, humor or statement.

Or just plain ole funny one like:

"If you\'re rich, I\'m easy."

This one is a huge seller for Unicron\'s country:

"I love animals! Especially the goat!"

Or if you made a tee that says "GmanJoe Sucks", I\'m sure it would be a best seller on this site.

Did you read my T-shirt suggestion? You can buy the software that will hook up to an embroidering machine. Jut install it on a PC. If you can type, you can embroider (as unbelievable as it sounds).
