If youāre gonna do somethingā¦ do it rightā¦.-Thatās why I was saying yesterday, I donāt think TJ got past the "making moneyā stage of his endeavor.. he skipped a few steps in his planā¦ good thing heās got people he can useā¦ erā¦ count on, to fill in the gapsā¦
JayBluE almost 12 years ago
Cockroaches are the only thing that can survive in that disaster area on wheels.^Youāre rightā¦ add another task to the listā¦. the Ex-Terminatorā¦ and hope that when he gives you the bill, he wonāt have to say: āIāll be backāā¦.
JayBluE almost 12 years ago
Looks like Toni is seeing that Brad will be a practical thinker for their nestā¦
RBLawyer almost 12 years ago
Brad is becoming his dadā¦ That damned adulthood! It started when he was oplayed off from his firefighter job.
dr_dolittle_rwc almost 12 years ago
I find it interesting that it seems that Toni did the work to get it running, while Brad was working on it for some time, and yet, who is the āGrease Monkeyā? At least Toni knows how to keep her end cleanā¦

Toni is having fun and enjoying her practical guy, who cuts such a contrast with TJ, who is mostly talk and very little actionā¦.

Brad sounds more like his dad or mom?

How come T.J. never had a girlfriend? Heās a nice guy.
reedkomicks Premium Member almost 12 years ago
@ Iamjayblue: about yesterdays comment that TJ and Ann were enemies, well, it is a thin line between love and hate.
drewpamon almost 12 years ago
Just because everything Brad is saying is correct doesnāt mean he has to bring down the excitement level. That is one reason that some people will never be entrepreneurs their heads are filled with fears instead of dreams.

I canāt see healthy food coming out of that truck either.
kenvilkid almost 12 years ago
Why is so tough for some to think healthy food canāt come out of a truck? How to you think āhealthyā food gets to your store.. magically appears? No, a truck brings it. Did you every look in the back of a tractor trailer box to see how ācleanā that is? If you did you would be cleaning your veggies with Clorox before you cook you healthy food. And since most of the āhealthyā menus are mostly barely cooked food, why couldnāt a food truck service provide that. As long as its clean and has a good refrigeration unit in it, the whole idea is great. Plus there are plenty of people doing this already with some of the best food you every ate.

Heās got the husband and dad speeches down. This actually is a cute strip today.
JayBluE almost 12 years ago
Yeah.. thatās why I was saying it like thatā¦.
Kathe almost 12 years ago
Thanks for the recipe. Will give it a try.
sweetg1 almost 12 years ago
āYeah, the roaches would take care of the āmobileā part.. theyāll make sure itās āfast foodāā¦.āā¦Nothing like seeing your sandwich traversing across the counter somewhat apparently by itself.ā¦.Itāll save you costs on waitstaff!

Donāt forget the cost of buying, or renting, a commercial kitchen. You canāt do all the prep work in the truck.
2Goldfish almost 12 years ago
People donāt eat off of trucks like that when they are looking for āhealthyā food.
rickray777 almost 12 years ago
Simple. That so-called food truck looks unsafe AND unhealthy just sitting there! I mean, come on, TJ. I may be hungry, but Iām not THAT hungry!
Doctor11 almost 12 years ago
Prepare to spend A LOT of time and money on fixing the green monster up, T.J.
Miles VanDelay almost 12 years ago
With the way that engine is puffing along, everything will be smoked, including the salads and drinks. Shoulda called it āTJās Smokehouseā. Here in Califoni, it will be classed as a āgross polluterā and the state (us taxpayers) will offer him somewhere between $500 and $1000 to turn it in.
Gotta love Cali! Oh, wait, no I donāt.
ACTIVIST1234 almost 12 years ago
Right Djinnā the great teams are:Brad & ToniToni & TJTJ & Brad*The three will be able to work together in all daytime things! And since Levi & Brdsht think TJ canāt stand girls (romantically), only the first team will count at night (so NO danger of a menage a trois)
rkozakand almost 12 years ago
No, TJ doesnt want Toni to cook,he is a much better cook than she is
rickray777 almost 12 years ago
That so-called food truck: TJ might get it running, he might not. Only time will tell.
vwdualnomand almost 12 years ago
are there any good food trucks that have a healthy option?
vldazzle almost 12 years ago
The truck not only has to get running, clean and licensed, but it needs to LOOK appealing. Since the only female there is the mechanic, I guess TJ must do his own dƩcor (unless he can con someone new into doing it).
No one would order food from such a nasty looking mess!
JayBluE almost 12 years ago
I guess we will not only be waiting to see if they start to tackle the other issues ātomorrowā, we may also find if this is a one or two week arc swing, or maybe to even do the ātime lapse developmentā thing, where we go to another arc, switch back, and find theyāve tackled some of these things later onā¦..

TJ may very well be asexual, but the examples of Luann and Tiffany hardly count as proof. A lot of guys will not see their best friendās sister as a romantic possibility. He may very well think of her in a sister-like way himself. Nobody would want to get serious with Tiffany. Sheās for looking at, not for spending a whole lot of time with.
sarafaye almost 12 years ago
āCranial flatulence.ā Hee hee. I will be saving that one for later use.
sarafaye almost 12 years ago
Another poor example, as there is no shortage of other reasons he might not have wanted to go out with her. She was only moderately attractive, but more importantly, she was a big pile of boring, control freak, condescending snob.
sarafaye almost 12 years ago
When Brad had a dream a few years ago TJ was also an annoying downer. At least Brad is being helpful. I think between the three of them they might have what it takes to get this business off the ground. I just hope that Brad and Toni are not under any illusions about TJ showing much gratitude.
