I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

Of course, that cover was originally done for THE LOST BOYS soundtrack.

kickass. I mean "Cry Little Sister" is still one of my favorite songs.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm pretty sure there is pacifier shaped candy too.

My house was purchased 20 years ago for $33K. Huh.

And OUCH, the other house on this street that I looked at, the foreclosure asking $140K? Was sold 2 years ago for $225K. And it needed a new roof and a lot of work. OUCH.

Our wings are not tired.

Sara, my neighborhood (Oakland, cA) has a couple of homes for sale (not foreclosures) in the $300's range that were bought three years ago for $700's. Bewildering, it is.

Even at the top of the bubble, I have no idea how that house sold for $225K 2 years ago. That's just...nuts. Nothing on this street should have gone for that much.

eta: I take that back. Some of the renov, I can see. And I do see those in the $200K range in 2007. But this place needed work.
