GEEZ LOUISE! The link is from "SHELLY'S Greatest Hits" album! I was actually driven out of town with pitch forks and torches for insinuating back then that real estate investulators were going to get their arses served to them on a platter...much like the h'orderves served with the free...

Oh, I believe it--judging from the inability to find a square foot of beach without a string of empty beach chair set-ups and strings of KEEP OFF PRIVATE PROPERTY signs...business is booming.

If you remember me ;-)

What type of document are the renters of golf carts required to sign? Does it allow children to drive these things on the roads? Does the insurance cover children who drive them on the roads? Who is liable if a child is driving one of these things and causes injury/death or damage? Will the...

First it was the year of "Trash on the Beach" Next it was the year of "Plastic Toy Junk on the Beach" Followed by the year of "Giant Holes on the Beach" Then it was the year of "Tent Cities on the Beach" Looks like 2012 is "Golf Carts at the Beach" Need to start a new thread called...

I'm not a fan of the golf carts either--for all the reasons listed above and more. You stated, "Just curious? what problems are golf carts causing?" ...allow me to make a suggestion: Put a BIG, BRIGHT YELLOW sticker on the back of each golf cart that includes your personal cell phone...

One of my fav beaches is on the Big Island of Hawaii...but with the limited amount of time you have, and the fact that you don't want to travel far--I'll second the suggestion for St Augustine (if you haven't been before)...it's close by; has lots of charming architecture; tons of history; many...

Who the hell saw THIS coming??:wave: I posted the following on the "Time to Buy Joe" thread in January 2011: Berkowitz--who was named Morningstar's "Domestic Fund Manager of the Decade" in January 2010, hosed the hound when he went all in on financial stocks and set about estranging...

Whoa! Hold it right there Skippy!...that's some dangerous advice you're bandying about without knowing anything about an individuals' retirement account or background. I know this is a real estate thread, but I hope the folks reading this advice aren't as gullible as the "investulators" who...

More area homes in are in the pipeline: Rosemary Beach makes Forbes' default list Forbes ran a story on its website last week looking at America’s 100 most expensive zip codes that have the most defaulted home loans. Rosemary Beach, which is in the 69th most expensive zip code according...

...you can tell that it's overpriced by the deflated balloons and faded paint on the "Open House" sign. :wave:

I personally would be happy to see a bunch of these "events" (both costly and free) just go away. Folks who live in tourist areas used to live for the "quiet season." They happily put up with the frenzied tourist season knowing that at the end of the season, the quiet beauty of the area...

:blink:...so does this mean "Now is not a great time to fly?" :cool:

...so you just woke up from a 6-year coma?

:roll: Who sold these stores the land?

That's the first phrase any commissioned salesman utters when it emerges from the womb...it's like asking a barber if you need a haircut.

That sign has been there since 2005. .

CNBC video about this announcement (video will play after the commercial). Keep in mind, JOE is down almost 2 handles since this video was made on Friday. If I was a shareholder in Berkowitz' funds, I'd be more than a little concerned that he's taken his eye off the ball in an effort to become...

If the median selling price for condos was $289K, shouldn't the line on the graph be closer to 300K instead of on 200K?

Garter Snake

So are you saying, "Now is a great time to buy?""

...every ending is a new beginning. Farewell Ash. Shel.

Happy New Years My Friends and Foes! My first order of business for Smiling Joe: JOE BEAT INTEL JOE BEAT INTEL JOE BEAT INTEL Thanks to RD for posting the updates in my absence...here is the latest results of the fantasy portfolio...

...nah--just taking a little GLD--not to sure about the market for frankincense and myrrh futures though.

Too late for that...TMZ & the local mullet wrapper has published all the info including photos inside the condo (ohhh...lots o'GCTs & SS!) and a link to the county records Reports: Miley Cyrus 'secretly' bought condo in Walton County | condo, county, miley - News - Northwest Florida Daily News...

Go for it...and reinvest the quarterly INTC dividends. .

It was "bought" higher than the current price--all were "bought" at the market close price on Nov 4, $2000 worth per stock: INTC: $20.97 (Current share price: $21.69) SPY: $122.26 (Current share price: $122.89) JOE: $20.17 (Current share price: $18.63) .

Week-over-week if JOE "beat" anything, it was its own previous week's performance...it's still in 3rd place anyway you look at it. If it makes you feel any better, I will actually write the statement "JOE beat INTC this week!!" when it happens--trust me on this. It very well might happen...

...you're talking 20 - 30K per year---right??

SJ..."you are starting to sound like people who looked at their home value every day. I thought it was supposed to be about time in the market, not timing the market." :roll: It's really not "up"...it's just less negative--not unusual for a stock that's getting jerked around by 2 huge hedge...

Does the kitchen have granite countertops and stainless steel appliances?

The buzz on the Street sez CROX has their R&D teams working on Jetson cars and cryogenic cylinders--I wouldn't count them out yet. Purchase now and lock away for 50 years. .

That's kinda ghetto.....the owners have nothing left over after paying for the GCT & SS upgrades I presume? .

It sounds like they're trying to get someone to paint on the floor of the actual koi pond in the park. Also sounds like they're trying to do it on the cheap...$5K??? For that amount, I'll do it with a roller. .

What kind of salary are you expecting to make? .

...I won't go there... .

...the value takes a bit of a hit when you factor out the opportunity to swim just about year-round and the 24-7 AYCE food fests available on the cruise ships. Then there's this: YouTube - Indiana Jones : Sword vs. Gun .

Welcome back, Matey! How was the cruise? .

I suggest that to cut back on the calories you could leave out the turkey, diced celery and lemon juice.

...or maybe he didn't look up the meaning of the word "cynical" before using it in the thread title. .

There are a thousand different reasons people become homeless or need shelter for a night out of the cold. In addition to the "usual" suspects--the chronically lazy; the substance abusers; those with mental problems; undocumented workers; fugitives on the run... there are also the woman and her...

...it was a stable, and it was a shelter. .

You can make turkey enchiladas and try using some of the low/no fat/whole wheat substitutes (not sure how it will taste though) Essentially you saute some onions, garlic and stuff; toss in some shredded turkey; mix in some cheeses, salsa and a bit of sour cream; roll in tortillas; pour a bit...

You would have made a lousy Inkeeper a couple thousand years ago. .

While you were in Psych 101 class trying to guess what goes on in peoples' minds, I was in Finance and Economics classes learning stuff that really matters--like GCT + SS ≠ $$$^5.

Well bless your heart, I'm all verklempt. As much as I would love to see more manufacturing come back to the US, I'm not going to hold my breath. I treasure the stuff I still own that says "Made in the USA" (a Bostitch stapler, a set of Revere cookware, some dishes, flatware, a US flag, to...
