The teacher did say that she wanted him to be less shy around other kids. She said he was quiet and kept to himself. Now he's gone the other way, and doesn't know when it's time to stop playing. I wish I could just say it's a phase in social development, but in general, he resists structure...

He's 6 and in the first grade. In general, he's never followed the rules, even at home. I used to worry about whether or not he'd follow the rules at school. And now he's not. I don't want him to do this when he's older, I want to nip it in the bud now.

So child #2 continues to be the direct opposite of #1. #1 gets straight A's (OK, a B in math) and has never had a disciplinary problem in her life. The boy, while he gets good scores in first grade, is showing a capacity to not listen to his teachers. I've been called into the Principal's...

I'd think it would be up to the Judge to decide. But most Judges are going to want to hear the evidence.

Some of the phone companies are now doing it. It used to be complicated and require servers. Now you can just pay the phone company to do it. We switched from a traditional company to do VOIP with call recording. It actually gives us the ability to record from our cell phones also, when we...

I'm in a one way state.

Yet another Lawyer called today trying to get their customer out of paying a bill. We did the work, documented everything, and all of the calls are recorded. The contract was fulfilled to the "T." I guess this one Lawyer thinks they are the one that will intimidate me. I'm getting old. At...

That's how it's done. But the real trick, once you get your SWAG number is getting a bank to buy into it. When I was looking at businesses, banks would only finance based on multiples of tax returns. I said that rich people tend to have this for their last business for a reason. They have to...

And the important thing with laundromats and car washes is making sure that there is actual revenue. Sellers don't report all of their cash coming in (duh), they take the money out and hide it. They then try to charge a multiple based on numbers that you flat out can't prove on a tax return...

I can understand why they did it. No one wants to be left with the hot potato. They did have debt. But that just goes back to the first rule of business, "Have More Than One Customer."

If there's a chance you think it's going to go bankrupt, don't do it. Or pay very little. It's no different than buying a stock. I tend to only look at companies that have been around for 10 years or more. The ones that have been around for two years, and didn't file their second year tax...

The timing is off, unfortunately. It would seem as GoTG2 introduced Adam Warlock as their next movie villain. But GoTG3 isn't planned before Infinity Gauntlet.

One of the most interesting comic series I ever read was the precursor to Infinity Gauntlet. I hope they do something like that in the movies. Thanos was the protagonist of the story, on his quest to assemble the gauntlet.

There is a reason why it took me 1.5 years to find the right one. And I was doing it full time too...As I said way back when on FOH, I spent a lot of time in due diligence uncovering the seller's lies. One company had good financials, but something didn't "feel" right. I backed out of the...

The glow above his pod is exactly the same color as the soul gem. Where is the soul gem anyway right now? Are you assuming Heimdall?

A friend of mine brought this up about one of the post credit scenes. There was a glow above the birthing pod. I looked it up, and it was the same color as the soul gem.

I was thinking that this movie felt more "Star War-sy" than TFA did.

If I have enough assets, hopefully not. Right now, everything is guaranteed by personal assets. It sucks, but when every bank you talk to won't come to the table without it, you don't have any other choice. If you believe in your idea, it's the only way. The reality is most financially...

This is the only Dr Doom that counts

I stopped reading that in #1, when he apologized to someone. Doom does not apologize.

I want to see a two part Secret Wars movie, where the Beyonder summons the Xmen and FF from their universes, and throw them into ours. Also, Galactus and Doctor Doom.

My point... Also, you aren't factoring the fact that international sales pay less of a percentage to the movie company than domestic.

How much money did Fox lose on this last FF movie anyway? It can only go up from here. FOX blames The Fantastic Four for loss in profits

I'm sure that they'll be looking to see how Spiderman: Homecoming does, now that he's in the MU (but Sony keeps the revenue he creates). May 3, 2002 Spider-Man $821,706,375 Jun 30, 2004 Spider-Man 2 $783,705,001 May 4, 2007 Spider-Man 3 $890,875,303 Jul 3, 2012 The Amazing Spider-Man...

...which means that Fox may be more open to working out deals from now on. This only furthers my point. When Spiderman comes out and does $1.2B, I bet they'll be open further.

Except that doesn't apply to Ego, does it? In the movie, they specifically referred to him as Ego the Living Planet. He is 100% owned by Fox if it's movies. Hopefully this harkens to Fox and Disney working together on other characters.

Stan Lee may be exempt, but the Watchers and Ego's movie rights are owned by Fox. That's the issue. If Fox will loan some characters, why not the FF? They aren't making any money on them, they are on the shelf. And if they don't make another FF movie in the next two years, the rights revert...

Dr Doom is one of my favorite characters, DC or Marvel. He's not a bad guy, he's just misunderstood. I can remember when I was a kid, getting mad when he finally lost to the "hero." To not have him in the Marvel universe should be a considered a crime against humanity. And let's be real...

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Cameo Suggest New Marvel-Fox Deal

I sincerely hope that this is the case. Fantastic Four was Marvel's first team comic. They've been trashed. Also, it opens the Marvel Universe to the other characters that are also owned by Fox. Marvel doesn't seem right with no Silver Surfer, Galactus or Dr Doom. Ego and the Watchers are...

I like how when the Gold people were flying their ships, the sound effects were taken from Space Invaders and Galaga. Also, when Star Lord was tracking something on his tracker, it resembled a handheld football game we use to have in the 80's.

Thanks for the expert analysis.

You can't do Infinity Gauntlet w/o Surfer or Adam Warlock.

New to comics? Black Adam is one of DC's more interesting characters, especially when he goes into kill mode. Like in the WWIII mini-series, where he kills an entire country of millions one person at a time with his bare hands. He's DC spin on what Superman would be if he had no morals (this...

yes we can

The better speedsters control all the molecules they are focused on. They can lend or take speed as they want. Not all of them can do this. Hell, I was reading a comic where one speedster gave himself super strength, and another could create super hard objects made of speed force like a Green...
