msbelle's houses ... I'm suffering from serious home lust ... and I could probably afford one of those. I'm currently apartment hunting; for what those houses cost ... well, a one-bedroom condo in town runs more than those - like twice as much (for the less expensive ones). But it's too far to commute and I'm close enough to retirement age that I'm not sure I could find a job in Baltimore. And I don't think I'd be able to maintain a house (that craftsman-style one gets to me). sigh ....

If I sold mine, I could pay off what's left on my mortgage, buy one of those, and probably still have an impressive chunk of change to put away. But I've never lived outside of San Diego. I fear real weather (and its various repercussions) would not treat me kindly.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Regarding the Iowa caucuses app, wasn't the first clue that it wasn't possibly the best possible solution simply the fact that the name of the provider was Shadow Inc.?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Does seem like a shady name, DXM. OTOH,The Shadow knows what lurks in the hearts of men, maybe they were hoping for that?

Our wings are not tired.

It is truly the stuff of memes.

Thanks, Gud!

Hec, is this going to be for Athletics Nation?

That's it!

The announcement about the changes in policy for the CA team sites on SBN made it a fairly easy guess. Good luck. I'll have to take a peek now and then.

"Shadow Inc." is pretty shady, but it's still better than "Fraud Guarantee".
