henderson: Las Vegas Foreclosure Auctions - 03/08/08 04:46 PM
You may have caught my last post about the Las Vegas Foreclosures and the call I received on the $40k 4BR, listed on a site often quoted in the media as a leading source. Since then I've had it brought to my attention that it was actually one of the pricier listings, after seeing this "REO" that was included from their search.
For some strange reason I'm beginning to doubt the accuracy of these sources of foreclosure information that are portrayed in the media as credible. It seems I'm not alone, and found this reprint of an Atlanta Journal Constitution Story. … (6 comments)

henderson: Las Vegas Rainbow - 02/24/08 03:05 PM
Rain in Las Vegas does not happen too often.  We had a storm pass through this past Friday and it rained.  Usually, it doesn't last a long time and then the sun returns to dry up all the rain.  What happens when the rain has ended and the sun shines?  A rainbow, of course!

henderson: Las Vegas Underground Home Market - 01/21/08 03:28 PM
Yes, there are many secrets of Las Vegas, and that includes homes. I've posted about Dr. Lonnie Hammargren's combined 3 homes that house his unique collection of all things Las Vegas and Nevada, that he calls the Hammargren Home of Nevada History.
So take a look at this Las Vegas home. Nothing out of the ordinary, just a nice two story stucco on a large lot.

No, nothing unusual there, right? Well take a closer look....

Looks like a typical 4 bedroom, 2 car garage....but it's got a Las Vegas secret. Take another look.

There's your clue. Figured … (18 comments)

Dick Wilson, known as Mr. Whipple, died at a young age of 91 this past Monday.  He spent 21 years protecting the Charmin toilet paper from crazy housewives who wanted to squeeze it!   Read the article in the Review Journal here.    He retired in 1985 and was replaced by the cartoon bears.  Wilson said the he was still recognized as Mr. Whipple long after he retired.
