    A way to save money on accepting credit cards......MAYBE?

    So far by most accounts it was a very successful show. How did it go for you? It was pretty crazy for me, I'll give details later. Right now I would like to know how it went for everyone. Did you learn anything new about shows or the business in general? :biggrin:

    Tinnitus

    I've got it from loud noises and blast over pressure. All the Docs say there is nothing they can do about it.... I get the ocational total hearing loss too, Docs told me that they know it happens, but dont know why. "why" doesnt matter to me as much as "what" we are gonna do about it...
