and when real estate is cheap, you can't get financing to take advantage of the prices. Funny how this works...the seller is desperate, and the buyer (except for those "connected") can't hit the offer.

perhaps .gov will put something in place this time to assure ready financing for everyone at reasonable rates.

Country hams may be a good play at some point. And, flour for the biscuits...... butter......Yum...... I could live on that diet....maybe some hash browns.....coffee.....a cigarette....a newspaper... a bathrobe.... perfect Norman Rockwell painting......
