Hey Gang! Long Time since I have been around. The paper said that you guys made a 3.5 million PROFIT in Q1.. Congrats!....I promise you I was not getting paid that much. Hope everything is doing great, I still keep in touch and up to speed on Big Blue, doubt that will ever change.

I do miss the drama for some reason, and I for sure miss coming here and taking info back to the office. How is everyone.

Some of you have sent me PM asking what I have been doing. I have started my own business(currently the online store front). If you get time go check out my sight at www.onlyatadiscount.com at the very least go to my facebook page and click LIKE. Facebook holds you hostage until you get LIKES.

Long time no see! I miss your posts here. Things around here have definitely seemed more lackluster since you leaving.

Anyway....onto your new project. Good luck! Now, I took a quick look and I say this with all due kindness: Were you drunk when you wrote the blurb at the bottom of the front page?

Here, I'll help you out and point out the errors (I especially like "we offer someone for everyone! ):

This guy is the TRUE "Original Gangtsta"!!! Thank you 482 for everything! Shit's been getting a little boring around here lately due to the fact that everyone now understands that BB is in the shitter (damn I miss the days when people on this board used to believe in BB)...at least "HOTHEAD" and a couple of others keep it interesting.
p.s. Hate to say I told you so...

Sadly I did not write the bottom blurb myself and that is one of the reason I published it here, knowing I would get some good eyes on it. I know my spelling and grammar stink. Thank you so much.

Email reply I got from my post

In response to my post about website. Here is the email reply I got. Gotta love it. Wish I knew who you were, I would never stay out of your life. But hey best of luck too you...before you ask. Traced the clicks back to the link on this site.

"Alvie: Your website is very unprofessional. The wording is so poor, it looks like a kid wrote the paragraphs. Whoever wrote it should be fired, and you should be for allowing such a disgraceful home page. Nobody cares you started a new business that sells crappy merchandise. It's sure to fail, you really have no clue. Go away from all our lives.
Snaffle/Dallas,TX"

Snaffle if you live in Dallas I am never going to leave you alone. My new mission is to discover who you are, because there are only about 5 people in Dallas that work in stores that do not like me. So $50 bucks in anyones paypal account who can identify this person for me. Good luck

So I went in a Blockbuster Today-Tons of cool stuff

So gang I edit the post because I someone I highly respect said it was making their life a little more challenging. I would never want to do that to anyone that I respect so much. It took less than 24 hours for the troll to report back to Satan. So guys please do not call her home phone, her cell phone, send her random emails, or sign her up for playboy magazines. LOL...I do not care what you do.. i just have to do what is right by the person I respect, they did not even ask me to do it, I just know it was the right thing.



So gang I was out and about and I stopped in several Blockbuster stores today and got to speak to a few people. Here is what I learned:

1. Beverage stores in Dallas cannot get beverage supplies in
2. For the most part people liked the New Release Wall
3. People where getting excited about the labor dollar amount
4. You guys are having some crazy sales 2 movies, 2 cokes for $3, that is a $3 bundle that people should push
5. The local Market Manager XXXXX, cell phone number XXXXXXX, still hates me.

Makes me feel so good to know that I had such an impact on her life. So to her little troll, actually we will call the troll MC, have fun telling this story on Friday. Oh yea have they found another home for you MC? I mean come on, you every store you work at closes...you think after 6 failed attempts at it you would give up.
6. People seem to be getting a little better, but not much
7. Seen customers coming through the door

Overall I some really good store visits and actually spent some money. Keep up the good work guys...the below information is public knowledge and was obtained by following: 1. Visiting Local Blockbuster Store 2. Completing a simple facebook search 3. Completing a white pages search 4. Completing a google search.

Cell Phone number XXXXXX
Company email address xxxxxx

Married toxxxxxx

Address
xxxxxx

Here is her linkin page
xxxxxx

Her facebook page
xxxxxx
