Yeah, it's been tough for me not to make any comments, but I would like to be able to sell on BAT in the future. I noticed that his CL ad came down a few weeks ago. After a month of no takers I suspect he's discovered that he's going to own that baby for a long, long time. That is, if he expec

As my lawyer friend is fond of saying, "Luck is the result of adequate preparation." That said, I agree with your comments. Wind, a fly in the bullet path, a a little whirlwind, anything could knock off his aim. Bottom line is that Haji got a big surprise as did his remaining buds. Make them

For some reason after I looked at Kleb's old Vickie he was interested in, Zillow started sending me emails about houses for sale in Nowata OK. I think I had signed up for Zillow some time ago for something about my house value or others in the area or something. Anyway, whatever... There was

Ha! that is funny! When I grew up we had lotsa krauts. New teachers ALWAYS butchered Hoenig, a pretty simple name. It is pronounced Hon ig. (or Hon ick) the new teachers always said Hoe nig They even butchered Freesemeier, which is pretty easy to pronounce right. Dan Penoff via Merc

Just a thought, in case SWMBO kicks you out of the high rent district: You can still get pretty decent houses along the gu'f coast for under $100k. A lot of 1200 to 1600 SF 3/1 or 3/2 were going for 20k a couple years ago. I am not sure if this is still the case. But 40-50k should get you a
