More good Economic News, and another nail in the coffin of the Doom and Gloom DUmmies.

As always, have at it.

Willie Green is deeply saddened

As are all the others.

Does not look like this thread is going to get much commentary with 'ol Hillary keeling over.

Oh well. Still good news.

Homes in my neighborhood have gone up by 50% in a year and a half, and nearly 100% in the five years since I bought. Unbelievable.

This one's dedicated to the real estate bubble that burst several months back

Tiny bubbles (tiny bubbles)
In the wine (in the wine)
Make me happy (make me happy)
Make me feel fine (make me feel fine)


Tiny bubbles (tiny bubbles)
Make me warm all over
With a feeling that I'm gonna
Love you till the end of time


So here's to the golden moon
And here's to the silver sea
And mostly here's a toast
To you and me


So here's to the ginger lei
I give to you today
And here's a kiss
That will not fade away

Thanks Don Ho!
