**Sitting in her office, Lighthouse looks at some paperwork. After finally giving up on trying to make since of the numbers, she calls in her assistant**
I specifically asked you to forward all urgent business matters to me. You didn't think this was an urgent business matter?
I have important personal business to handle today and really have no time to fix this. Now I'm forced to get Damie's help.
Excuse yourself. Thanks.
**Lighthouse turns to call Damie**

**walks out of office to meet Juicy**
Hey AKAD, I mean Juicy.
**both walk into Light's office and have a sit**
Well, I know that my return to Hazerville has been quite a shock to just about everyone, including me. But I had to come back for a number of reasons. One being my company.

OK, understand. *leans back and crosses legs, wondering what does this have to do with me and why this meeting was called.* To say we were all e-shocked to see you back is an understatement. |

Yes especially after the way I left. But that's not the reason for this meeting.
I wanted to let you know a few things.
First of all, I have no intention of trying to work my way back into OO. I believe my decision to leave the organization was for the best. Additionally, I have too much other stuff going on then to deal w/ that as well.

I never expected you too. Besides, I don't think that can happen anyway. And your e-decision to leave, I have to agree, is for the best. If you can no longer whole the e-ideals dear to your e-heart, it's time to let it go.

**rolls eyes**
Anyway, I called you here for something much important than back and forth about OO.
I have a business venture that call for your "expertise".

*notices the attitude. Smirks that Light has one and is asking for my e-help at the same time.*
First, Light, let me e-address your attitude. I do not have one with you about OO. It is what it is, you did what you had to do for you. I mean, we were e-ls, you were our e-tail, we did have an e-bond at one point. So there shouldn't be any bad blood between us.
Now, what business venture are you speaking of?

Post by Lighthouse on Feb 22, 2008 14:20:18 GMT -5
**holds giggle**
There's no attitude, J. Just amused that after all this time your rant is still the same.
Anyway on to the venture. ...You know that LH Productions was a billion dollar conglomerate. Still is. Fortunately for me most of my business affairs went uninterrupted during my time away. However, FrontFace Films didn't fare as well.
FrontFace is a film production company that I gave to Cold after we were married. Once we separated he let the business suffer, inspite of the fact that he had an awesome staff surrounding him. While I was gone, I've been working to resurrect this company and I need someone to run it. But first, I need to make sure that all of the staff that was loyal to Cold is gone.
I know you have a panache for snooping and such, so I wanted to hire you to oust all of the Cold loyalists. Once that is done, I'd like you to head up this group.
What do you think?

Amsued, huh. Well, it's not an e-muse, it's e-dear to my heart. I mean, I wasn't the rock of our e-line for nothing.
So wait, you want me to basically to fire the old crew under Cold and then let me head the group?
Hmmmmm.
Here is what I need to know.
1) Will I have total control in running this business? Basically, since you gave it to Cold, will it now be mine?
2) What would my title be, and how much would I make?
3) I have sole power in hiring and firing?
4) You do remember that I have my own e-biz that I'm running as well, correct?

No it will not be yours. Your title will be President. Yes you will be in control of hiring and firing. I have moved all of my protected employees away from that company so you will have almost complete control.
Your salary will be contingent on the success of business operations at FFF. But because I'm generous, to get you started, I'll pay you $345,000 for 3 months of service. You will have 30 days to get rid of the riff raff. And another 60 days to improve FFF's bottomline.
I will tell you more once you decide whether you will accept or not.

3 months of service, $345,000. Hmmm, if anything, this sounds like it will be fun. As long as this won't interfere with my own e-biz, I accept.
And just for the e-record, your ex e-ls, Queen is the master at e-snooping. I'm just the master at taking that info. and using it to benefit which ever party. I will be hiring her.

Post by Lighthouse on Feb 22, 2008 15:14:45 GMT -5
Great. I think Queen will be a wonderful addition to them team. My lawyer will draw up the contract and will have them couriered to you. Queen of course will have to sign a contract agreeing that any information she finds during this endeavor cannot be used for her gossip column.

Post by Julie Art on Feb 22, 2008 15:29:03 GMT -5
LOL! Of course she will! Have the lawyer fax the info over to my lawyer and we will make it e-official!

Post by Lighthouse on Feb 26, 2008 10:28:34 GMT -5
**Laughs**
Why are you hugging me like I'm one of the mothers of the church or something? I know it's been a while but I didn't think we ended in such a horrible way that I'd get the church hug.
Anyway...I've been doing great. I won't say the same for you. What's with this security guard gig?

Well, after looking like a damn fool on national tv, and doing another little bid for being a convicted felon with a handgun, I've been chillin. Can't get a real job, and gotta be a flashlight security guard. I'm wondering now Why I am even here?

Post by Lighthouse on Feb 26, 2008 10:35:08 GMT -5
Because I wanted to see you. Isn't that a good enough reason?

**undaunted**
Actually yes. And while you're naming names, I saw Cold as well. But I'm sure you alreay knew that.
Look, I didn't ask you here today to have an ugly episode. I wanted to see you and tell you that if you need anything, let me know.
**hands Bigs a cashier's check for $150,000**
I know this isn't much, but it should help.

*thinking I didn't come here for no handout*
Thanks. I appreciate it, but don't need it. I'm doing alright, and maybe we can hook up and grab some lunch soon.
*thinking thats 150,000.....*

That's what I've always loved about you. How much of a real man you are. Never wanting a handout. Well don't consider this a handout. I owe this to you after the mess w/ Nupe left you w/ a felony.
About lunch....I was actually thinking dinner would be better. Are you free tonight?

That's fine. I can't pressure you. If you decide to take me up on dinner, meet me at my hotel. I'm staying at the Omni Hotel. Room 1913.
