A tweet for AJ

“Almost 100% of the bad news coming out of Washington was once a conspiracy theory.”

 

Weiner leaks

Video announcing his candidacy for NYC mayor leaks prematurely. I hope he’s victorious – there’s four years of 4th-grade humor here. “I won!”, he ejaculated, would just be the start.

To be honest, I’m perfectly alright with this, but it’s fun to watch the liberals squirm

Obama admits to killing four American citizens in predator strikes. Muslim terrorists who came here, got citizenship (WTF?!) and returned to their homeland to wage war. Screw ‘em.

Ok, one accepted offer at the closing bell, for a multi-family

52 Ute Place (near Boxcar Cantina), asking $1.250 million. There is, or was, a foreclosure action going on against this property, so it will be interesting to see what it actually sells for.

End of the season?

No accepted offers reported today as of 4:00 pm. Certainly there are still buyers out there but I suspect that the ones who had to buy this spring have bought; the rest are waiting to see some value.

Little house next to the prairie

We do have price cuts taking place, even though the end of May is a little late for it. Head start on the fall season, I suppose. 3 Cherry Blossom Lane, that failed development up in Banksville, is as of today available for $3.8 million, still too high, but considerably more realistic than its $7.995 2008 price. The listing, by the way, shows its construction date as 2012, which is curious, because the structure in the picture looks identical to the house that graced this land back in 2008.

The Prairie

So what’s the value of this vacant brick wonder? We don’t even know  the land value yet because 8 Cherry Blossom Lane, vacant land, still hasn’t found a buyer, even though its 2008 price of $2.125 has been steadily reduced to, today,  $1.395. I’m guessing that #3 will find its niche somewhere between land value and …? Less than it’s asking now, probably.

The religion of pieces strikes again

British soldier beheaded in London.

The BBC reported sources had told them the men were shouting “Allahu Akbar” as they carried out the attack and had filmed carrying it out.

One witness, called James, told LBC radio: “We saw clearly two knives, meat cleavers, they were big kitchen knives like you would use in a butcher’s, they were hacking at this poor guy, we thought they were trying to remove organs from him”

“These two guys were crazed, they were not there, they were just animals. They then dragged him from the pavement and dumped his body in the middle of the road.

“They took 20 minutes to arrive, the police – the armed response.”

Thank God (or the Prophet, blessed be his name) that Britain has disarmed its citizens and soldiers so that no one could stop this faith demonstration until the police arrived twenty minutes after the religious service began.

Who will help me plant my wheat?

Our Hartford Yahoos have just voted in a bill that will require labeling of all genetically modified food and we’ll be the first state in the nation to do so. This dovetails nicely with those same folks’ recent requirement that all ammunition sales be restricted to licensed ammunition buyers, and just as out-of-state ammunition dealers are writing off our small market and declining to ship to Connecticut residents rather than incur the cost and liability of attempting to comply with our law, so too will food manufacturers. I have a garden, a bow and a ton of ammunition, so I’m okay, but what are the rest of you going to eat?
