“When will the buyer ever get a “break?”
If the “buyer” is someone who doesn’t want to pay too much for shelter and is getting the best education possible on home ownership and is living frugally and saving like crazy the buyer is getting a “break” right now.Actually the buyer is making his own “break” which is where the emphasis should be because we don’t control other things. If the buyer is spending his money , chomping at the bit because he got priced out, waiting for the fancy, comfy, entitlment houses that all the GF’s bought and is expecting it be easy for him someday he is wasting his time in the housing market.The ones that most likely aren’t getting a break are the ones that are doing the actual buying.

That is very kind of you Perry,
What else can I be, other than the “Ideal American” I was born on the 4th of July!It is so funny because “America” in a mentality or values sense, hates me and if someone like me started moving the masses and was to make inroads toward social and political change their eternal flame would be extinguished.
If I get back to Mexico I will see the murals of “el sapo”.
I witnessed the “cacerolazos” at the “pink house” in Argentina twice while on vacation there.
They were protesting the lack of support for Justice for”the disappeared” and their surviving family members .I think that is still a daily or weekly ritual (not sure). Later there was a big disturbance right before recent economic meltdown. Many “cacerolazos” and much more serious conflicts followed over that for a couple of years. It was probably not safe to be there during that time as the people were very angry with “yankees”. Things, as you probably know, are much more stable there now.

“Man, R-, for being a big guy, you sure are sensitive!”
The Mural was a very interesting experience for me,I actually happened by it one morning as opposed to going there on purpose. My father was a very bigoted,ignorant, fool and would have said the most horrendous things with a portrait of MLK in front of him. For me to have the opportunity to give my son the heartfelt respect MLK deserves was very moving indeed.Maybe your son will have an experience like mine one day?I have read Malcom X and sympathize with him as much as you do Jesus,another rebel who died because he didn’t know when to shut his mouth.
JG Since you are a retired naval officer,You are just reminding me of my Navy days when I was an enlisted guy and I had to call people like you “sir”. That was painful. I am sensitive enough to think about the other people on this blog that might be hurt by your insensitive behavior and I am sensitive enough to let it go for your sake.The comment was very unbecoming no matter how you spin it.
Best wishes

Thanks Perry,
You are a true enabler :).
I already have my keyboard and mouse attached to my exercise bike. Gotta get one of those magnifying overlay plates for the monitor.No way do I want to go coronary blogging.

JG I am disappointed with you again, It’s one thing to be conservative another thing to be derogatory on an ethnic basis. Didn’t you say you were half Italian and half Mexican? I have an excercise for you…Go to ocean view boulevard right off the 15 there you will find a mural depicting MLK,Muhamed Ali, Cesar Chavez, Bobbie K, and Malcom X. Take your youngest family member with you. Park right across the street and tell your family member what a handsome guy MLK is, what a wonderful man he was and if they are not too young how he died. Tell Bobbie and Malcom’s story to them Cesars’ should be easy for you.
Cry if you have to.I know I did when I took my four year old guy.

“towelheads”
Is this offensive or dehumanizing in any way?

“and bum off your friends who have the membership at the Beach and Tennis Club.”
Hello friend, tennis anyone?

Hi Lostkitty read your post about too much blogging. Thanks.
We were talking about setting up a second computer.It bothered me. My goal is to stay a one computer family so we discipline ourselves to stay with the kids physically and mentally..since my wife and I both use the home computer for work, blogging has to take a hit. Moderation is a good thing anyway.

Hey Cy I know your’e around…
I am cracking bud, I can’t take being a blogger addict anymore and am decoupling , Nothing happened like a fight or anything just getting bored and concerned about spending so much time& mental energy here. I get meaner, believe it or not when I get bored so I am decoupling, more or less gradually before I do something I regret to my new virtual friends. I think I got some good stuff out of here but enough for now. Maybe I’ll stick around in a moderate way , will see. I guess the Realtors will be buying each other drinks now!

Grrrrrrrrrrrr..lol

having a free and clear house might not be the best case scenario for anyone …sure I agrrrrrrrrrrree. I’ve posted on what a dilema it can be, from personal experience, several times in the last week or so. I think it is on the “Would you have done this” thread and on the one and only thread I have ever started ,”for those of you on the sidelines.
