Ahh, flea markets. Jesse and I had our business start at flea markets. Selling baseball cards and candy.

*adding another point to checklist of common history
When we launched Red Hot Greetings, we made a bunch of print cards and went to the markets with them ... I spent 2 days counting how many people walked past, how many walked up to the stand, how many made a purchase and how many made comments. Traffic / Conversions / Content ;-)
BEST experiment in marketing I've ever done. Plus, we got to spend the day sitting in the sun and purving on the shirtless guys walking past
AND .... most importantly .... IT WAS FUN!
Joe, as everyone has said, who gives a fuck what a fat dumbass idiot with a trophy wife and bought friends thinks anyway? Brad's entire life is dedicated to impressing others, but when he can't impress them he copies what they do ... poorly.
He tries to cover up his insecurities about being a small dicked fat loser by surrounding himself with morons he pays to post on his lame assed board. Every piece of energy you give to defending yourself to him has to come from somewhere ... and there are much better ways to invest your time.
At the end of the day its this simple .... you are part of a team that's not built on 1 mans ego. The Oprano team has a history of making big things happen ... Brad has a history of fucking his friends in the ass to make 1% of what he could have made if he was capable of using his own brain.
Let him bitch and whine to his paid audience about the opportunities he left on the table because he was too stupid to see them, while we get on with setting the table for the next banquet.
