Black and White VS. Color

If you ask me, I love Black and White photographs. Always have and most likely always will. I was recently chatting with a friend of mine who dislikes them with a passion! Her thought on the matter are, taking a perfectly good photo and turning it black and white takes away all the feeling of the moment. Everyone has an opinion, of course. I couldn't wrap my head around what she had said though. Why would it take away the feeling or emotion of that certain picture? Couldn't it in some cases make it more enhanced? I sat pondering this for quite some time after our chat and have come to somewhat of a conclusion...
I love both!
I think that black and white photos are amazing but so are color. It doesn't matter what color the photo is as long as you can feel the subject and see why I (or that Photographer) chose to not only take that shot but share it with the world through our many of social sites or even on my wall in the living room or office!
Don't get me wrong, I still make a lot of my photos black and white, just the right ones. I feel the emotion through the subject or moment. Not in the colors that I see or don't see!
My question for you is...
Which do you prefer for your photos?
Black and White?
Color?
Or like many Both?

Very scattered

I wish I was more consistent and could follow a schedule better! A must for running your own business!! I was researching names yesterday and it dawned on me that if I want to start my own photography business I have to be more ready than just having a name that I like!! I need to be better at being consistent, being more organized and structured! I have Just about everything I need to start more clients, other than my friends, but I need to work on myself more! How is that the one thing I should have a handle on but don't quite, was not on the table of things to get ready!?!?! I must say that I was very surprised with myself for just skipping over something important! So a wait on my business but not on my drive and excitement!!! I will always be taking pictures for it is what I love to do! Am I going to open u p the best photography business in my state? Let alone town? Soon!!!! ;-)
I'm always going to follow my dreams, wven if that dream takes a while! Those end up being the best of all!!
My question for you...
If you could be a little more of something (organized....) and it woukd help your business too, what would you stop and work on???

Printing?!

Back on with my printing issues! I don't mind printing my own pictures for at home use but for anyone else I always ordered them online! (Shutterfly) I want to start printing my own for clients at home but it can be very expensive! I found an amazing printer, Canon Pixma Pro-10, the other day.... And fell in love!!!! Its truly amazing and I hope to get it! It cost around $500 from some retailers. I wonder if I can find it somewhere close to where I live instead of online... Anywho! Just wanted to know your thoughts on this...
Would you rather print your own photos for clients or have them order them online?!?
