Sunday, April 20th, around 4:30 AM I was awakened by what I thought was the sound of my son gagging. He had been ill a couple of days before, so I got up to check on him. I also thought I smelled burnt popcorn. I remember wondering why my daughter was … (17 comments)

Good news! The market is not stagnant. Weird maybe, but not stagnant.

blog: I was Going to be Sugar and Spice, However|MLS Again... - 02/11/08 05:06 PM
It shouldn't make a big deal that a property listed as 39000 sq feet is 3900 square feet. Most of us would figure that's the case.
