Trust me, I know the economy needs help. If it doesn't get some, I may not have a place of business to work at.

Damn guys, I'm feelin' for my CA peeps. Hope things work out. Many of my friends back home are self-employed or small business owners, and they be hurtin' too. I seriously doubt if I'm moving back to CA; probably going to TX or LA after dive school.

A large part of my company deals with government/council grants and whatnot. A major one is the NEA.

You can't afford the cost of the war on drugs anymore, and cannabis is a billion dollar crop.[/SPOILER]
