Happy Mothah's Day!
I'm really pissed at my Mom on this Mother's Day. Plus I don't live geographically close by. When I lived up north, we would go to a brunch at "Rippling River" - a resort near Mt. Hood and it was worth the 40 mile drive. The items in the bOOOffet were off the Richter scale.Yo, PB, the map of Eastern PA isn't gelling in my brain right now....do you live closer to Baltimore or to Philly? How far is either of them from you? I had a good friend that lived in Hunt Valley MD (nice area, actually) who chose to return to his home town of Indianapolis...(you know, Crocland).. because he missed being near his family. Personally, I would have stayed in Hunt Valley/Baltimore (between those 2) since you can get to the beach much easier.

Pictures!
I think Mc Carran is a trip! All the billboards for all the Vegas shows, trying to figure out where all the tourists are from and riding the little train in between the terminals! The only thing I can't stand is the MAUVE color that all of the terminals are painted in.

NO. NO. Only the 747 and, to some extent, the 767. No Airbuses, please. Just how we like GM, we ought to be faithful to Boeing and not to Airbus Industries.

BV's New Addition!
Vipes, Congrats and half fun. Remember, they do require care so it's not all fun. So, does that brownish looking one like having this new guy around or is there any jealousy? Once they get past the jealousy, they really enjoy having one of their own species around. You'll know that when one senses the other's absence.

Our house has gone up 23% in the last 10 months
That's still quite a bit less than most suburbs in either LA or SF - add at least 150K to 200K for the same thing out here. Some people call it "the sunshine tax." When I go down to LA, I drive around the streets where I grew up and pull sales flyers. Good God...I doubt if there is anything under $ 700 K any more. When there was a big uptick the last time (late 80s), my parents cashed in on their 2100 sq. ft. 1953 +/- all stucco home and bought a brand new 2400 sq. ft. 1990 siding/stone home near Portland with a "territorial view", while pocketing a good chunk of change. That's why Northwest people hate(d) Californians. My Mom tried to sabotage the move as she never wanted to leave LA. Now, when she got to go back for Thanksgiving 2001 and see the difference in the house she owns versus her old house, I think she kisses the ground that she actually moved up north.

In the end, this is NOT good for a local economy because it people are "house poor" they can't pump money into other sectors of the economy.
