Really, riding a sinking ship.<BR/><BR/>My wife and I walked away from two house purchases in a declining market because of obtuse sellers. Both were unwilling to give. All around us we saw houses not moving and these clowns were unwilling to budge. As with you, it all worked out. We waited 11 months by chance and did much better (we feel).<BR/><BR/>Less "diverse". Really? Or was that sarcasm?<BR/><BR/>Really, I can't tell.<BR/><BR/>I gotta get some work done today.<BR/><BR/>Slow out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11336670.post-59197204622450625672008-04-19T19:18:00.000-04:002008-04-19T19:18:00.000-04:00C,Hahahaha awesome.

I had plenty more to say on this grand misconception of <B>Leroy's</B> but it might be better suited to a follow-up post. Heck, HGTV conflates "house" and "investment" all day long on its programming.<BR/><BR/>If the Commi's of our <B>Big Government</B> were consistent, they would probably ban using the words together - just as they ban *promised returns* and whatnot for agents selling stocks and mutual fund "investments".<BR/><BR/>As for my maturity level...<BR/><BR/>I recently discovered that I am *perfectly mature*.<BR/><BR/>Meaning those more childish than me are <EM>immature</EM>.

You are definitely an ego-maniac and turned what was a dispassionate business transaction into a contest of emotional wills.<BR/><BR/>'Twas fun to read!Taylor Conanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18270678440957992085noreply@blogger.com
