Putin: The Store

     America; What a Country.  So, a guy says, "I'm going into business.  Maybe a week, maybe more".  What's your product?  Putin products:  T-shirts, hats, photo mugs, tattoos(temps).  The former Lithuanian, now American feels that there's a market for Putin memorabilia.  Why?  He's a headline grabber of the 1st order.  He has a following, that's for sure(even if ordered to be a following).
     So, this is a Pop Up business.  By its very design, temporary.  Here today, gone tomorrow has a new meaning in NYC these days.  It's different from a food cart/truck: they move about the hood, but they have a long term outlook, long term life.  Plus, a food truck has an investment of considerable dollars.  Not a pop up, usually.   Quick in, quick out.
     Now about Putin's Place, or whatever it's called.  Will it have legs?  Will it go the distance?  Like any business, time will tell.  Or maybe the headlines will tell, or not.   Where's Mad Vlad going next?
Liberia?  Hmmm.
