So your throw good money at a broken game. I hope it's enough to fix it.
You know the game is broken when a Taco Bell in Abilene, Tx has more owners on check ins than Yankee Stadium in Ny

Congratulations Booyah! and Jim. It has been exciting watching Booyah grow and expand MyTown along with Booyah itself over the past six months. I can only imagine what goes on in your board and conference rooms. I am guessing though, that alot of new and groundbreaking blockbusters are coming our way.
