Hell Hath No Fury

And I am almost scared to see the fury that will be unleashed upon young flippy snowflake. Either that, or I will be glued to my computer with a bowl of popcorn.

Aside: I came home early from my looser job because I felt like 10 lbs of shit in a 5 lb sack, turned on the tv and it was some flipper show about a couple that had jumped the gun in (a) not getting a home inspection (b) bought in a very small town - Durham? and (c) took their time doing renovations the DIY way.

At any rate, three things.

Thing the First: Nigel

I'm not quite ready to link to him but over at Don't Hate Casey Serin (well, maybe you should) he's been busy blabbing about what Casey's really been doing. Whether this is for traffic or not, it doesn't matter. Its good stuff and he seems genuinely affronted and appalled by the way Casey has treated his wife of late.

Thing the Second: Galina

Whoa. Man. Would not want to be on the receiving end of that. She is right pissed off, and feels betrayed. I think this last episode with Cashcall really opened her eyes. Go over EN to see what all the brouhaha is about.

Thing the Third

Flippy's "book". Available this summer! Take a look, he made a post with the cover on it. Look familiar?

BTW, the publisher's of "The Da Vinci Code" can be contacted at ddaypub@randomhouse.com

At any rate, its apparently going to be available in July. Are you lining up at Amazon to get that? (Yes, I know its a virtual company. Go to B&N then!).

5 weeks to write and publish.

HA.

Do as I say

At least in this case.

Apparently, the real estate market just isn't good enough for species 2759:

Others, like Nigel Swaby, a 36-year-old mortgage broker in Salt Lake City,
are reluctant stock investors. Fearing the prices on two investment
properties he owned in Salt Lake City could decline, he sold them in 2005
and invested the money in stocks.

Swaby wants to get back into real estate and has been hunting for homes
to buy, but feels prices are still too inflated. "There aren't a ton of
deals out there," he says. So his money sits in a high-yield savings
account, a diversified stock mutual fund and four stocks: Procter &
Gamble, Nortel Networks, Revlon and United Airlines. "I want a higher rate
of return than a savings account, and stocks are it, until the real estate
opportunity presents itself."

At least he's getting some press!
