Default this is actually funny...

More liberal crap...
I live in Michigan...along with a "majority" of union types/auto workers
etc. Not that there is anything wrong with unions/autoworkers (blah blah
blah)
Michigan currently is 50th in the nation with regard to economic growth, and
basically also the worst in the nation with regard to employment.
Now, I'm not one of those *types*, and eagerly await the day I can sell my
home and move south.
But yet, these "Michiganders" apparently support Jeniffer Granholm (current
failed governer) for governer re-elections according to recent polls against
DeVoss.
I CAN'T believe this! How f'n stupid can the sheople be?

Yea I read another article about Michigan topping the nation with mortgage
foreclosures already.

live right on the water!

Can you get what you paid for it plus a profit? (adjusted for inflation
and time and interest spent?) If so, and you want to move, do so. Forget
about "what it's worth". It's worth what you are willing to part for it
for, and what someone is willing to buy it for.

"Worth" is what the final price is, and all other numbers are merely
some real estate agent's wish. "Worth" goes up and own according to
supply and demand and other market pressures.

As I said, if you really want to move, don't let 'worth" stand in your way.

Wife wants to wait till kids are all out of school and graduated.
In the meantime, were thinking of a houseboat in Florida to live on for
extended vacations, but...

A wise man once said that the difference between intelligence and stupidity is that intelligence has
a limit.

According to her campaign commercial she is responsible for Toyota building
new auto-related plants in the State with XXX new jobs and it's just the
start of the economic recovery. (That's why she's running for reelection.)
Hey, at least Michigan made the list; what do you want? That's some of the
nice things about the U.S.; you can vote and live where you want.

Hmmm... So the same thing as the difference between skill and luck...
As those of us who have cheated Darwin over the years know oh-so-well...
