Quinn and Rose are off the air, (temporarily, I hope!) Gone, but DEFINITELY not forgotten! Meanwhile, our friendly group of dedicated FReeper Q&R fans will meet in our usual spot - same time, same station - as we always have! So grab your coffee - or whatever you choose to start your day - and drop in for some political chit-chat, or just to shoot the breeze! We are all coming from - or going to - work, but we all stop in to say ‘hi!’ Feel free to join us!
Morning FRiends!
Good morning n’@!
Pens won-tomorrow night they can eliminate the Rangers and the Buccos won too! Woo hoo!
Yesterday, at the end of the thread, everyone was sayng how tired they are of the political ads...put me on they list too! Not a fan of Corbett, what he is a world away from the loons running on the Dem side.
Had a weird EQ dream last night. Hope nothing happens today. Noted that the full moon is 15/16. I guess I was thinking of the AGW get together at the WhiteHouse and Obama being all “settled science” (which NEVER happens in anything!) and I must have been subconscitously thinking “you idiots, mocking the earth and it’s cycles.”
Good morning.
Exciting news for anyone looking for a home!
Mike Tyson’s abandoned mansion near Warren Ohio is back on the market! Unlived in since 1999 it has been restored. If you do a search you can find it on the real estate websites like Zillow.com.
The best I can link to on my tablet is this older video. It looks much better in the latest pics.

I have seen it in person and it is amazing!
$1.3 million...
AHH geeez....my middle son just bought a place near Boardman, OH...if we had only “known.” :)
I *PROMISE* to be a *GOOD STEWARD* of any POWER BALL LARGESSE...and being a *GOOD ‘MERICAN* will buy a McMansion once I have the means.
I’m so magnanimous (and humble!)
Shame it was abandoned, but what a place! A few hundred pounds of shock and that pool will sparkle!
A couple things surprised me...the tiger cages (?!?) and the “light box” ceiling in the kitchen. A light box?!? In a home w/imported marble, etc? Mike was taken advantage of there...
I found the listing (but FR won’t let me link) on Realtor.com
House is in Southington OH. Built in 1980 (so some of the dated stuff truly makes sense).
As the listing agent says...”endless possibilities “
Those tiger cages are even more puzzling. Word is Tyson never really lived in the house. He visited a couple of times and there may have been parties. Mostly the house fell into decay. People broke in and trashed things but didn’t take anything. Odd.

LOLZ (well sobbing too!) about bursting my bubble...
I used to work for an inventory service (when my kids were little—awful overnight hours). I was a “team leader” which meant I ran inventories and had a “team” that I was responsible for scheduling. Had a lovely older woman (who had been recently widowed). She would go on bus trips to Atlantic City a couple times a year (w/her friends). She ALWAYS made a point to to tell me (before one of her trips) that she “might be calling off rich!”
I have loved that term (and her spirit!) for almost 20 yrs...and someday, I’m going to “call off rich” myself.
Ps, my co-worker NEVER actually did call off due to sudden wealth...but she did quit when she and a nice widower decided to marry :)
I’ve already left Ohio three times in my life, and am not up for a fourth. Thanks!
