The second meeting of the idea shed has been held.The most disturbing thing we faced was when we first walked in the Waffle King three people were hogging the only table big enough for all of us to fit in comfortably.We all had to crowd around a little booth. We then ordered our usual meal of biscuits and gravy.The first order of business was to decide if we wanted to buy a new basket ball. Our leader for the month, who was Sebastian, brought it to a vote and it was unanimous, we decided to buy a basketball. Then our food came and we put our business on hold and ate our food. After we were done eating, the next thing we brought up was that I needed to finish the book I was reading, which is how to program an iPhone app. We decided that I had to finish it in two weeks or I will have to wash the suburban for a year. Dad also said he has to lose 10 lbs
in one month or he will sign up for a 10K run. We then discussed several more things such as getting hair cuts, the super bowl, and football for next year's season. Then we elected a new leader for the month. We elected Nick as our next leader. Then we paid for our meal and went to Walmart and bought a new basketball.I drove home and the second meeting of the bricks and mortar idea shed was closed.

bricks and mortar idea shed is here.....1st meeting
Nic Miller Today we went to waffle king; we did this as the first meeting of the "Bricks And Morter Idea shed". This name in other words means the idea shed in the flesh, the group of "Brains"(Greg, Alex, Nic, Elliot, and Sebastian) behind the idea shed. Anyway when we got to "the king" we immediately ordered 5 platters of biscuits'n'gravy and 5 cups of coffee. Alex immediately started the meeting by dumping loads of sugar and cream into his coffee --in my opinion sugared coffee is no longer coffee but cappachino. Before we started eating we laid several ground rules in case our little circle ever turned into a mass meeting including people who wanted to do rotten to our club. Ground rule (1)meetings will be approximately 1.5 hours long (2) Elliot will be our official time keeper.The (3)rd rule was nominated by the benefactor(dad), this rule was that the senior member of the the meeting would be called "Da Boss"(4) it was at this time that I made the suggestion to give "Da Boss" Veto power over all rules if things get out of hand. This is when Alex (with a sudden surge of intellect)said that in other words we were giving dad "Carte Blanche".
We also gave "Da Boss" 2 votes in regular voting situations.(5)This rule was followed by a law that stated that when someone stated the words "I have an idea" conversation would/will cease and all meeting participants will respectfully listen to the idea. We also found out that the first time Alex wanted to play football was when he was 4 at the time dad took him to a Walhalla Razorbacks football game. Who would've thought this could've led to picking off Mr.Football of T.N. as the starting Cornerback for the Cumberland Gap Panthers 12 years later.
we then decided to write this idea down as a commercial opportunity. We then had a long discussion about the subconscious mind. Mentally chew on this, when you shoot a bow and arrow it is repetition that makes you good at it, you practice that one fluid motion of pulling the bow back and shooting. What makes you good is when the subconscious takes over, that is why it is so important to practice pulling the bowstring back the same way every time after you have done it the same way 9000000000 times it becomes subconscious you no longer have to think about exactly where the bow is aimed your subconscious does that for you, this is where imagining success comes in, if you imagine yourself successful for 5 minutes a day your subconscious will work on getting you there, granted this all goes along with prayer and hard work but it is imperitive to imagine yourself successful. So think about it you can do anything you want to within the parameters of God's will look at the prime example the tower of Babel if God had not intervened who knows how high the tower of Babel could've been built,they might have built into outer space and discovered everything we know about outer space centuries ago+think about the experience advantages these guys had,they could live to 1000 years old. It goes to show that "if you can dream it, you can do it". Finally I got this great idea if the subconscious is what gets things done we need to imagine what we want to be every night before we go to bed, our subconscious will then work it out in your dreams all night.After our brainstorming session was over (during which dad and I consumed 4-5 cups of coffee each) we had to do an old trademark thank you for a very tasty meal after asking the cashier we went behind the counter and gave the cook (his name was Johnny) a YUM!!! YUM!!! YUM!!! Lastly, on the way home dad realized he had forgotten his glasses(TO MUCH COFFEE!!!).And that wrapped up the first meeting of "The Idea Shed " which we figured out would have 780 meetings between MARCH.20.2011 and March.20.2071 (when dad turns 100)
