There was one house I liked a lot, but it was way overpriced for the market-- by like $30K. I asked my agent to go back to the seller with a fair market offer, because I wanted the house, but not enough to overpay like crazy. Apparently the seller's agent was embarrassed, and said he knew the house was way overpriced, but that the sellers were underwater and couldn't afford to sell for any less, because they'd have to put cash in and they didn't have it. That was almost seven years ago-- as far as I know, the sellers still live there.

In Thailand you'd see some old guy walking through the market sharpening knives for people. Kind of cool.
That's a pretty far trip for 24 knives.
My dad was a machinist. He sharpens knives better than anyone I know including all the pros I've used in kitchens over the years. He tries to teach me but I can never get them as sharp as he does. He's good.

What are YOUR favorite shaving products, Jan?

I'm pretty sure most of us were born in a different century. Just saying.
Our market has been HOT for several years now. When we sold the old house we had 22 showings in 6 days and competing full price offers. We were VERY fortunate with the lot we built on. We knew the people who owned it and approached them about buying it - we'd approached them about 5 years before, too, but they weren't ready to sell yet. When we asked again they were ready and they priced it where they were comfortable with it - which was considerably below market. The only stipulation was that their son would build the house, but that was our plan all along anyway, so we jumped. It's up in value about 40% since we moved in.
The kids usually come to me with their medical problems. Yesterday evening Annie came to me to say her stomach felt bad (not hurts, just not good). This was immediately after eating a cookie. I asked if her stomach felt bad before or after the cookie - just a little bit before. Mmmmmhm. No mention of it when she asked for the cookie.
BUT
The mysterious stomach ailment arrived when Mom and Dad had to give their attention to the guy from the gas company who was there to investigate a possible leak in the stove. He had a lot to say, we had a lot of questions, and Annie wasn't getting a lot of attention. Annie loves attention.
After the gas guy left I asked if she wanted to play a game - we played Mastermind. Interestingly, the stomach ailment disappeared just like that!

Yeah. But it's a set of Martin strings and I think the gauges are thinner. It didn't buzz with Worths on it.
I know, right? This one is a bugger.
Your dad's diagnostic skills must have rubbed off on you!
uh huh, uh huh
Good morning. I have no idea where you are in Canada. Are you close enough to Alaska to have felt that quake?
