GB Texas and its no mello Roos taxes.Buying a house is a PIA. The house I'm in now, I love. But when I was looking to buy it, I had 2 criteria that were deal breakers. It had to have 3 bedrooms and no mello Roos taxes. What did I buy? A 2 bedroom with mello Roos.but it's perfect for us, 2 master suites, nice yard, especially for south OC, a driveway, which is a luxury here, and I have no one within 50 feet of me on all four sides, complete miracle for south OC. And for good measure it was the most expensive 2bd house that didn't have an ocean view.

The moral of the story? If you like the house and the positives out weigh the negatives, you're going to be ok. No house is perfect, and k4's advice of picturing yourself there is good stuff.
Are you a musician?krista4 said:I'll ask Mr krista but have never heard of Matt Spiegel, and I know who all the regular players were. He could have showed up a time or two. Sometimes a musician recording at the studio would sit in, too; everybody liked the non-regulars since they usually weren't very good. The Tuesday game isn't as regular as it once was, but Brandon's still living on Steve's couch, until they get back to Chicago I suppose.Kritta- They are talking about your poker guy on Chicago sports radio.

Did you get the side of raisins?I had Oysters Rockefeller at lunch and was disappointed by the complete lack of tycoons that came with it.
I agree. The dumb thing about the word pizzookie is that the dish is not even pizza-based.I didn't know what to expect, really.You could bake a lot of things in a pizza pan, but that doesn't give you the right to call them all by some stupid pizza-something name.Ignoramus said:You were hoping for some marinara sauce in there?
Per Mr krista, Matt was a semi-regular and is "a great guy", "one of the few sports talk radio people who isn't a shrieking #######" and is also a member of the band Tributosaurus.Kritta- They are talking about your poker guy on Chicago sports radio.

So dumb yet funny.nonviolent marsupial tax.Wtf is mello Roos?
Told them we are celebrating our anniversary, sorta true, it's in a few weeks, and they're throwing in a bottle champagne. :highroller:I'm very intrigued by this matrix of house features and their respective weightings.Krista - that advice is awesome. Thanks.
I had a great first United Way board meeting today. Four people who are local celebrities to me were in the meeting and every one of them told me the great things they'd heard about me. And one of the staffers told me that there was a standing ovation in the staff meeting this week when it was announced that I had been elected to the Board.
If you're lucky they may just keep him as a sex slaveAlso, he rented this couple's basement apartment while in Colorado Springs for the last 5 weeks. We found it on Craigslist. I'm looking for a similar type deal in Denver. We're pretty much playing the murder lottery, right?
I wouldn't be concerned about it in the least.Also, he rented this couple's basement apartment while in Colorado Springs for the last 5 weeks. We found it on Craigslist. I'm looking for a similar type deal in Denver. We're pretty much playing the murder lottery, right?
Ouch :(Romo was supposed to leave to come home tomorrow. He just got sent to Denver for 2 more weeks instead. I'm full-term in 2.5 weeks. Neat industry.
Can you find me a basement for Beerhole? This high-falutin Intercontinental wants 5 racks for 3 nights.Also, he rented this couple's basement apartment while in Colorado Springs for the last 5 weeks.

Potential upside is that he might run into Finless.Ouch :(Romo was supposed to leave to come home tomorrow. He just got sent to Denver for 2 more weeks instead. I'm full-term in 2.5 weeks. Neat industry.
Damn, that sucks.What are we doing about this? Are we sending Homer to midwife?Romo was supposed to leave to come home tomorrow. He just got sent to Denver for 2 more weeks instead. I'm full-term in 2.5 weeks. Neat industry.
You should do things you like on your birthday.I'm getting my hair cut. There are few things I hate more than going to the salon. :(
Hey boys, who wants to go play some mini golf and hit the batting cages?!!!![]()
I would like to go play mini-golf.
Sorry guys, I went upstairs and it was storming, again. So we went to Brunswick zone and played laser tag and video games for a couple of hours.Me too
I would like to break a bottle of vodka.
It smelled like I murdered a Russian drinking team.I had Oysters Rockefeller at lunch and was disappointed by the complete lack of tycoons that came with it.

You're comparing the giant zit on her nose to a mountain right?Not content to merely hike Mt. St. Helens, krista will now re-create it.
I was really hoping this story was going to end with "so them I smashed his face into my car repeatedly".Dropped my daughter and her friends off at Summerfest last night. I pulled into a parking lot and asked if I could just pull forward (about 2 blocks) and just drop them off. The woman was nice about it, but said 'no, we can't let people do that, you will have to turn around and go somewhere else"
I said no problem and started to turn around but had to wait for other cars pulling in, so I told them to just jump put and walk from there.
The security guard starts yelling "YOU CAN'T DO THAT!!!!! YOU CAN'T DO THAT!!!!!!!!!" Screaming over and over, yet not getting off his scooter.
They jump out anyway as I still had to wait for cars driving by me.
As I pass by the Security Guard, he says "I hope they have a ####ty time", not loud, but it caught me off guard and I stopped to ask what he said. He looked straight ahead and didn't say a word, then it finally hit me what he had said.... As he glanced back at me, I nodded my head and said, "Thanks Barney Fife, I'm sure they won't". The ticket lady broke out in a little grin and I drove off.
What a doosh
Very cool.Krista - that advice is awesome. Thanks.

Usually you get raped a lot first but yeah, I would say murder is the end game.Also, he rented this couple's basement apartment while in Colorado Springs for the last 5 weeks.

I thought you were trying to make him feel better.At that point, think instead of what it is about the house that you like the most. If it's the yard, for example, picture yourself with a beer out there, watching the kids run around and not kill each other.
