Making lemonade from lemons takes vision, resourcefulness, and tenacity, but no one will buy it if you're not out sitting at the booth with your sign up. No grand scheme or great idea has ever made it off the ground without work. Hours upon endless hours of it. Just ask the telephone guy. What I mean to say is that half of everything we do is just showing up. Sure all those jerks we want something heavy to fall on so they'll make room for the rest of us had the foresight and follow-through to realize their opportunity, but more importantly they were present when it came along. Even if the weather sucked and they had Monday hangovers, they didn't miss their chance, and now they can laugh and throw poo at the rest of us. Maybe it'll be your turn this week...
