Stolen Business Plans!

I started thinking of business plans in my head near the time I was graduating high school--1995. The internet was fairly new and I was brain storming in my car while driving--What could I do with the internet? My thoughts were something like--Maybe there could be an Umbrella Company on the internet that sold other people's products? Stolen.

Then I was doing the same thing in college while attending the University of Washington. I thought I wanted an Interior Design retail store with plants and pots. I thought of the name: Ravenna House Merchants! Now, at University Village--Ravenna Gardens exists.

There is one more business plan: it was an Interior Design Store called DeLuxe and I drew the store front!
