Thanks so much for the prompt reply. What you've said makes very good sense! As a gadget-man I am SO easily distracted by flashy intros and other electronic carrots dangling out there, and I'll be the first to admit it. That being said, somewhere deep down inside, (I think Jiminy Cricket would call it a conscience), I know better than to invest money in the "flashiest intro to a no content site" the world has ever seen!

I'll continue to fight the impulse until I'm properly grounded and prepared.

One more thing, I do have an idea for what could possibly be the "next big thing" in websites that I'd like to run by you, (considering your wealth of knowledge and experience). Is there a way I can do that semi-discretely? (Providing it really IS the potential mega blockbuster idea of the decade, I dont really think it'd be wise to post it openly)!
In any case, thanks again for your help!
