A village near mine in Peace Corps had a television and shoe repair roadside stand. I guess it's a little less jarring in a 3rd world setting though.
Nice new trailer. Looks like someone figured out how to step out of the 40-hour rat race.
With the dollar falling and the debt rising, this trailblazer may be showing us our own futures. Remember: location, location, and the brown acid isn't specifically good.
I love it when these stories come out of Ohio... Makes me feel good to be in the northern half.
waitaminute... no it doesn't!
There's TWO of them? I'm in Southern Ohio and there's a combination computer repair/ fruit stand near me. :) I have to admit... it sounds like a GREAT job! I'm impressed by people who go into business for themselves.
I actually have done the same thing whilst running a pumpkin/xmas tree lot. In fact, I met my current business partner there.
I love this shot - what else are you going to do if your laptop breaks down while you're out shopping for tomatoes in the trailer park?

I hope he doesn't mind the display of his phone number on the internets.
They're open for business right?
No privacy concerns there. It doesn't look like it was taken in the European Union.

maybe the business name is "Tomatoes" - there isn't anywhere that mentions they're for sale...
Very cool. There are a few people near me that sell or service computers out of their garages. Who knows how good they are, but at least their idea is good.
Oswegan: Nit to pick: Why sign with your blog link? It's spam. You've got the link already in the blue wrench icon. If people care to go to your blog they'll click that.
I have seen my future.
I can do one better than that. Check out this junk hauling and barber shop combo:

This just in: Steve Jobs, worried that the combination fruit stand/computer repair trailer in Ohio was too close to trademark infringement, filed suit today. "Tomatoes are red, so are many Apples," said Jobs. "This could clearly confuse the public and dilute our trademarks."

No spam intended. Just an auto sig that I cut and paste.

This guy is on to something. Low overhead and has his eggs in more than one basket. With all the free advertising and internet buzz soon he'll have to upgrade to a double-wide.
