Cut the Costco

Saying that Alliance Net is only about Quixtar is like saying Campaign Creations is only about StarCraft.

And saying that Quixtar and Oasis are competitors is like saying Costco and Taco Bell are competitors. They're not. Just because both happen to sell tacos in some shape or fashion doesn't mean they're mortal enemies or that they even give a damn about eachother.

Now, look, I don't know what Joe Land's "ultimate intentions" are. I would like to think they include something along the lines of making money. I'll back him up all the way, though, because I believe in his ethic and I believe he is trying to do right. If he thinks that Oasis is the way to go, then I'll give it a shot. Why not? It's not like I'm leaving Quixtar.

I still sell the products, I still use the products. Oasis' herbal shot doesn't make SA8 any less better than Tide. Speaking of, I need to make an order, 'cause we're out. But that's besides the point.

You know what I was doing while taking a break from passing out gift bags full of Ageless Extra? Selling gift baskets of Artistry. Yes, it is possible.

If Joe decides to ditch Quixtar, I'll probably sign on to somebody else's group, if that's the way it works. But I'm not going to join this hysterical bandwagon that the world is ending because Joe Land expanded his horizons. People do it all the time.

Some better than others.
