Does that mean we can vote for him again?

Today, I got an all cash offer for my Florida house. $130K. Clean deal with no contingencies and a five day close. The quick close is a problem for me because I have to have time to deal with all the personal property in the house. So, we have to hash out some details before I accept the offer, but it looks like it's sold without going to auction. Not as much as I had hoped for, (is it ever?) but after talking to some of the neighbors there I don't think that I could expect more at this time, in this market. So I'm just waiting for my guy to get a cleaned up, final version of the offer printed and a statement from the escrow officer breaking down all the costs... who pays what etc.

Where's my Tums?

Oh, that... In the Gulf states they call that a hurricane, in Nevada we call it a stiff breeze.

Good morning everyone. So far it looks like it is going to be a nice day today. There was a blood red sun rising when I took the kids to school earlier. Not sure what that means but...

I don't know if that means anything really, but it sounds like a good thing to say when someone mentions red sun or red sky.............. hehe.

No wind to speak of this morning, and we have sunshine!

I am currently on the Internet Brands Mustang forum website and came across a thread that I think needs to be shared. It is an example of why you should not take your vehicle beyond you abilities or the cars.
