    Bizarre characters of IHB

    Well conditions in Brevard are somewhat different than conditions in Miami Dade, it being so much less weird in Brevard. What should I call it when I'm up here rather than down there??? Nanny Nanny BOO Boo. . . . Well is next week the week of the systemic meltdown????

    you couldn't lose weight while breast feeding? Lordy. That was when I was at my skinniest. I could eat anything. Oatmeal is very good for you of course. Lots of fiber. Yeah oatmeal!!

    What do you guys think of Skyline at Macarthur Place?

    They would here in Florida. In the late 80s there were these people who paid cash for a condo. Maybe 80 grand then. They thought they didn't have to pay fees. WRONG!! The property was sold to a vulture-type person. Then the firgured out that they had lost their unit...

    I need to lose 20 lbs in three months

    Do NOT switch to fat free stuff. Fat is as somebody above said, your friend. Drink nothing but tea, coffee, or water. Or V8. Don't drink soda, and don't drink fruit juice, and if you do, cut it with water at least 50%, preferably by 3/4ths. Don't eat anything with high...

    What do you guys think of Skyline at Macarthur Place?

    JC--I would agree with you except your towers are competing with our towers (tho 3,000 miles distant), and I would guess that we have more towers more insolvent than your towers. A competition I would sincerely desire to lose. But the way last week on tv there was this thing about...

    Can you choose to not "save" any more and instead use the after tax proceeds to buy gold coins or silver bars?

    Siyonara Indymac

    Of course, I agree with our most prestigious nutters that if the printing money thing happens and it probably will, only the hardest of hard assets will survive. Only good thing, is my hub's eyes done roll around in his head any more when I talk about this stuff. He is choosing...

    I chose Mellon to park my escrow account in. Mellon has some money laundering/dope dealer issues, so they vetted me hard. I felt like I was asking them to marry me, instead of taking some of my client's money. They told me they don't really make much money from traditional...

    What do you guys think of Skyline at Macarthur Place?

    This needs, I think to come down another 10% in price. The HOA situation is a nuther story altogether. Who is subsidizing this $500 a month? Is the money in escrow with an atty or title company? There is a certain minimum amount that is needed to run a high rise tower. You at...

    You know you spend way too much time on IHB when....

    Ok, IR, how much further down from where you Californians are now would it have to go before you buy your house? 30% more (that would be a half price sale, no?) 40% more? 50% more?

    Siyonara Indymac

    Totally agree, awgee. I'm switching to Mellon. Their share prices are ok, they have some exposure to cre, but actually, I've been told that they actually make their money by clearing, handling trusts, and other stuff not involving loans and bank accounts. They've also been accused...

    W's Legacy

    I don't like the word legacy with the word Bush in the same sentence. Legacy seems like a good thing. . . That being said, the polution thing is something that somebody on drugs, drunk or over the edge just barely functioning insane would say. He doesn't care what these people...

    I wuz wrong about the ATMs. They are supposed to work. Is this a reprieve for the fired workers? The hub and I have money in WaMu which he refuses to move. Under 10k, just a checking account. It's too convenient. This is why Roubini and Company are worrying about meltdown...
