Lemonade's Last Stand
When life deals you lemons, set up a lemonade stand and then get squashed by "the man". Er, something like that:
A dispute between two boys hawking lemonade and a rival vendor who forced police to shut down their unlicensed stand was resolved Wednesday after the mayor orchestrated what he called "a corporate merger."Mayor Stanley Usovicz said sausage stand owner Kevin Kefalas agreed to allow Dominic Serino, 9, and Ryan Decker, 11, to operate as subcontractors under his vending license following an impromptu outdoor meeting initiated by Usovicz.
The agreement expires when school starts.
Gross receipts before the shutdown, $130.
No word if the boys from Salem, MA have soured on the idea of starting another business.
