Ah yeah! Of course! The gospel according to South Park! Now that would make an interesting religion!

I thought at the w/e, one thing you could do is commission Senior to illustrate your comic.

Me and my mate have been talking about opening our own pub though - and it really tickles my tummy.
Even if it means working 18 hours a day, it'll still be worth it since I always have a great time with my friends, and it would be great to be my own boss.

I lived/worked in a pub for a while, and it's not all that-at first it's great, but soon the whole living/working/socialising in one place is very constrictive, and in my own experience, quite frustrating and depressing. I'm not saying it'll be the same for you, just thought I'd share my experience in case it was something you hadn't considered.

Best of luck regardless, dude.

What do I want from life?

To be happy, nothing else matters, but that I can be truly happy with myself as a person.

Thanks for the input

When I think about working in my own pub together with my mate it's all Carebears, rainbows and free games for Nintendo DS. So I think I really need this kind of input

Obfleur, I read this article last week

http://www.slate.com/id/2132576/

About a guy who tought it'd be fun to own his own coffee shop (selling coffee and tea), and did so, and his experiences.
