  1. Your really not upset that a store has a policy that you dont agree with are you? No matter if they chose to be a hipocrite, they didnt feel it was viable at the time, or they didnt chose to allow it because they didnt like your email address, why are they not allowed to do whatever the hell they want? This is a very easy concept to understand, dont patronize them. I will never understand why people get upset because their opinion differs from theirs. I can undestand if you seek clarity in understanding why their opinion is what it is but to feel so passionately that your opinion should supercede theirs to the point your almost vengeful. I dont get it. I sometimes feel the same way about somethings but I understand my thinking is sometimes flawed.
  2. You know I have been a painter for nearly 20 years. I have epoxied 1000's of square feet, and cutting concrete(we also grinded) I have grinded 1000's of sq ft. I was using polyurea coatings back before it became the "hybrid" form which allows you to roll it on today. In its true form it drys so fast your only option was to spray it. Although I never applied it as a floor covering I can tell you it makes a great protectant when sprayed on various metal surfaces.
  3. Starting in 2006 you are required to file an annual information form. Failure to do so will automatically cause you to lose your tax exempt status. Not sure about everything that you have to file. That may be it. Anything your organization does that isnt spent directly on charity is taxable. You cant set up say cr as a charitable organization, raise $20 and only spend $10 of it on charity or use the other $10 for track events. The $10 not spent on charity can be taxed. Look into irs form 990. And thats 1023 501 c3 I believe for initial startup.
  4. Notorious honda tranny fail. Almost everyone I have talked to either has had it done or expects to. I know one lady on her 4th factory tranny and researched alot more who have at least 2. I bought a honda needing it done but surprisingly noone can figure out what the damn thing just wont fail completely. It hard shifts/slips from 1st to 2nd, and they say this is the beginning of the end. Mine has still been going despite having 230k on it and shifting this way for 3 years now. I think the only thing that has saved me up until this point is I did change the fluid despite knowing its on its way out in a last ditch effort to try something rather than just having it rebuilt. I talked to rushmans tranny about rebuilding and they seemed to be somewhat knowledgable on how to rebuild them and not have the same issue eventually come right back. Their price was about the best I have seen also. I would never trust a used transmission or junkyard tranny for a honda, its just to widespread a problem.
  5. I incorporated a business name a few weeks ago and I had it back 3 days later, really quick turnaround. Anthony should turn cr into nonprofit, no more taxes.
  6. Heres what you need to do. You can have a website up and running in about 5 mins using one of the website generators. 1. Pick a name 2. Go to Ohio secretary of states webpage and see if name is available 3. set up nonprofit corporation by clicking the link and fill out form 532, mail it in with $125 check 4. Go to irs website and download form 1023 to apply for tax exempt send back 5.register with ohio attorney generals office as non profit Should take an hr, minus waiting for your id numbers.
  7. Like Greg said, sometimes publicity can be bad.
  8. I am sure they will have a news channel doing a story on the day of. Even if the bikers dont make it happen toys r us will. I wouldnt get to crazy in trying to make a point. Keep in mind(and I speak from years of charitable work and being a board member of a few as well) you dont want to burn any bridges that may at somepoint help you in the future. I would stay diplomatic and either fire off a letter to Toys r us's president's office explaining your views or simply say to a reporter if you go that route that you had originally planned on having the event elsewhere but they couldnt accomodate you this year but hope in the future things could change to help support a needy cause. Dont let being frustrated/mad right now screw you down the road. Things happen for a reason and as stated I think it will be better in the long run. You dont want to get the reputation with business' that your group is vengeful if they dont get what they want. That only works with groups that actually have power based on money or powerful members. Keep in mind you were probably one of several dozen groups, even larger groups, that asked to do this. There are alot more legestics that go into having an even on site than you would think. Permits, sometimes licenses, police ect... all take time.
  9. Its all about notariety. If you guys were a huge group they felt would draw in an audience like news channels you would be there instead of the bikers. Next time tell them about how much publicity you are having for your groups event and they will be seen by television viewers. The better you make it sound the more they will show enthusiasm about having you.
  10. Not sure if this is any better than the post years ago of the rims you could put LED pictures and words on while driving.
  11. This is why these things tend to take months and months to navigate through the proper channels. With more time and phone calls you would have eventually been given permission. Yes they shouldnt make it so difficult however as a customer I dont want there to be a charitable drive in front of the store everytime I shop. I am sure they make it available to what they feel is a valuable charity and for a time period they feel wont turn away customers. You'll have it at meijers and will probably be more successful in the long run due to the volume of traffic and meijers lower prices on comparable products. They probably did you a favor. I wouldnt be to mad, their charity drive will give them national recognition, and they did take the time to hear you out. Wait until you deal with a place that wont even return or take your phone calls even after knowing its for charity.
  12. Damn I should really buy this. How long does the battery last?
  13. For those that dont know, the product that Aj's company applies is different than an epoxy. As he stated his is a polyaspartic coating. While it shares a similar chemistry as epoxy it offers alot more benefits. 1. is its dry time, it dries much much faster than epoxy can. 2. Its about 50% more flexible than epoxy. 3. It has alot better adhesion. 4.Polyurea has many more color options and finishes. His company has the ability to offer the techniques needed to properly apply the product. Most "do-it-yourselfers" dont have access to the grinding capabilities either an epoxy or polyurea require to properly apply. Most people think they can powerwash or even acid wash a floor and be good to go. While this may last anywhere from a month to a few years, grinding a surface creates the bonding surface each product requires to make a lifelong durable surface that can stand to years of abuse. For anyone who is thinking about using his products and feels the price is high compared to something you could get for $50 in a box at home depot, keep in mind its a far better product and he performs the techniques to guarantee it looks good and will last. Its one of those things where you think how much do I want to spend over and over doing it or just pay to do it right and last the first time.
  14. You need to renegotiate the price of the materials, they are killing your profit possibilities especially with being a rather new product line..
  15. Damn salt. I know the fucking city came through last winter and sprayed salt 1/2 way up my damn brand new driveway causing it to start to spaul.
  16. I have the exact same thing in the exact same spot. I have had it cut out 3 times and will need it done again here soon. Damn thing sucks but it looks exactly like that, the second one I had was about twice that size.
  17. Somehow he is using them for fuel. And the little girl is one of them.
  18. Spit what out? I am buying a commercial oven, as stated I have access to single phase and 3 phase. Not sure which one to get. Not sure what info your looking for. I am pretty sure the answer was already given, for heavy use the 3 phase would be more cost effective to operate.
  19. I guess its what trade you know. I can repour mine cheaper lol. But then again I would prefer to have it look like yours when done.
  20. I tore my old single axle popup apart and made it into utility trailer. The loading surface is 6' wide by 12'long, overall trailer is 16' long I guess. Any idea what this trailer should be able to hold?
  21. So if I get the 3phase for cheaper, is it hard to switch it to single phase? Is it a matter of just not using a leg, and is there any downside of doing this(will it work the same)?
  22. Does it all have to be picked up at once?
  23. I dont know if my trailer would handle that weight.
  24. Termites are a fucked up thing to have, I tore a wall out a few weeks ago that no longer had a single remnant of stud left. I hope Inever have to deal with them.
