  1. I was in Ithaca last weekend, worst traffic I've ever seen. Roads closed, under construction, or one way the opposite way I wanted to go. Fuckin apple festival On a brighter note, great driving roads outside of town, and its fuckin gorgeous out there in the fall. Great colors.
  2. I always do phone interviews standing up. It makes me more energetic and my voice sounds better.
  3. Its all about hitting it at the right angle. I usually have little to no scrape on most driveways if I come at it pretty sideways. But like the others have said, this is a cheaply replaceable part. It also is able to take quite a beating. speaking of that, so can the black plastic front air splitter on the Z06. Lets just say I've tested the flexibility of that air splitter a few times. It always returns to its original shape.
  4. olympus uses a XD memory card instead of the typical SD memory. not a huge deal, but something to consider if you dont want to buy new memory cards although, I've had a 7MP Olympus since 2006, and it still looks and works perfectly
  5. Yeah, after looking at what I can get in my price range, I'm probably going to have to wait on my dreams of having a huge garage space. However I've been checkin out the zillow set to my range and I'm pretty comfortable with what i'll be able to get for ~$200k. I guess one of the biggest things for me is that I dont want to have to walk into a house and be transported to 1970. Its definitely a problem with a number of houses in my price range
  6. Good advice for sure. I'm definitely carefully picking the neighborhood and whats around it, and trying to take into account what it might turn to in the next 10-20-30 years.
  7. but did he asure it was safe? he apparently didnt think of the possibility of someone from the other lane changing lanes. which always could and did happen in this case
  8. lol, hes givin the crowd the look of "thats right motherfuckers"
  9. but how does that happen? I mean the house will cost what it costs right? How can unsavory types get into a house that they cant pay for? Or is it like a government assistance type program? welfare for homes kinda thing?
  10. I"ve always used monster/careerbuilder in conjunction with networking. In my professional career its been monster/careerbuilder - 2 (L'Oreal, Diamond Inno) networking - 1 (Barr Pharma)
  11. I'm not sure if this is actual help or just my personal experience. I've always gotten better deals when its rainy. Its just conjecture on my part, but I would think they dont move as many cars when its raining outside so they may be more apt to make a deal on those days?
  12. well shit, you dont see that everyday. welcome
  13. It sucks, but I'm inclined to say that it was the fault of the person turning right.
  14. This is essentially what Marc described over PM. Also good point about being able to walk away from a house. I think I should be able to handle that, I'm going to approach it the way I approach buying a car, if you're paying as much as you are, you should get what you want. Sometimes you gotta wait for what you want to come around.
  15. first thing you do when you walk up is punch him in the dick, this will let him know you're in charge. Negotiation is all about whos in charge
  16. Ok, so HUD homes are just forclosures whose loans were insured by the FHA, easy enough. Are HUD homes more likely to be in poorer areas or not as desireable areas? What causes the FHA to insure a loan in the first place?
  17. I love me some links, school districts may or may not matter. the boy is what you would call "gifted", I doubt he's going to go to regular school. On second thought, while I do go up stairs a lot everyday at work, I am lazy. Perhaps a mini-escalator can be installed. Great fuckin list, I also love lists So what exactly is a HUD home. I"ve been seeing the designation a lot. Got it, browse it, love it
  18. Most of the grand sport models have those. I've seen very few without them.
  19. I sent you my number, sorry, I didnt see your post till just now. I can come by and check them out tonight if I'm not drunk (going away party for co-worker at 2) or tomorrow during the day which I"ll definitely not be drunk.
  20. Split levels dont bother me that much, my day is filled with stairs. Although I would say split levels are not on my list of wants. However I probably wouldnt count a house out because of it if it had everything else I wanted.
  21. I getcha, thanks for explaining it like that. So now the question is, does anyone know good realtors? My credit is good, nearing 800, so I'm hoping most of that stuff goes smoothly.
