I want Fred Phelps to end up in a British prison. Then have the American embassy say, "I thought we were a god-forsaken country, surely you don't want help from evil ol' us."

sarameg, I have Opinions! hahah
I do think this one is a hell no: [link]
Not bad neighborhoodwise (although right on Falls would put me off some) but needs a LOT of work and seems like too much house for you and cats.
This one's been on the market a suspicious while, but the cheery bathroom charms me: [link]
My friend Kathy just bought a place on this block last year. I can have her ask her neighbors about it! If it's been on the market long enough she may have even looked at it when she was househunting. It looks cute to me and that is a pretty good block in, of course, great neighborhood.
AACK! Scary basement: [link] plus if it is the layout I know, not much bigger than my apartment.
I hear you on the scary basement. My one at my old house was like that and terrifying to me. My one now needs a good cleaning but is not nearly so scary.
As always, I'm happy to tag along if you ever want to go look at a place!

Happy Birthday, Jon!
msbelle, I use salary.com to check those kinds of things. I've found it to be generally accurate for Wisconsin. It gives average, high and low range for the region/city you choose.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy birthday, Jon!
I like this post from AmericaBlog about Michelle Obama and DC:
The Obamas are changing the tone of the city (for the actual residents, not "The Villagers"). They've created a bit of a buzz around town -- and D.C. rarely buzzes. I have to give a shout out to Michelle Obama, who has really been making an impact. Almost every day, she's doing some cool event like the one this week for Black History Month with D.C. kids. She's going to all the cabinet agencies to thank the federal employees for their service. And, she's been stopping at local social service organizations around town. But, the day I knew she was really cool was when she went to the Five Guys right off Dupont Circle for burgers and fries. I've had a lot of burgers in my life, but nothing compares to Five Guys. It's just really good and totally unpretentious. Michelle is making D.C. seem fun -- and that's no small task.
