"They're trying to fool you. They're trying to scare you and they're not telling the truth," a fired-up Obama declared while campaigning in South Dakota. "But it's not going to work. Both Bush and McCain represent the failed foreign policy and fear mongering of the past," Obama said. "I believe the American people are ready to reject this approach and to choose the future."

That's not too far down the street from us. The wife will want to take a spin over there to check it out.
Wish they'd have at my outdated carpet and, as my wife ominously calls it, our "closet situation."

They did this in KC about two years ago. A firefighter had rescued a paramedic who had been wounded by a man blowing up is own house (another story all together).
The home they built for the firefighter and his five children is incredible! It was a major traffic mess around that neighborhood for a couple of weeks. All of the neighbors let the crews use their driveways and yards during the construction.

My kids will drive me crazy until I take them to see the action.
Take 'em, and carry a picnic lunch. Watch the action and I'll bet they remember it for quite a while.

When will Extreme Makeover Home Edition come to New Orleans? At the rate the LRA is handing out checks to rebuild damaged homes, we will be complete about the time New Orleans sinks into the Gulf of Mexico.

Unforturnately jimmah is at this moment about a mile and a half from my house in Louisville at a book signing at Sams Club. My wife asked me if I was going to the signing....sometimes I don't get her humor.
Back on topic (sorta), my wife also told me if Extreme Makeover comes here, forget the kids, I'm taking her to see Ty.
I think I need to find a good support group.

I just want to punch that Ty idiot.
I never understood why they don't stick around until when the tax collector comes to collect the taxes on the gift of the home improvement. That would be cool.

Actually, the show's producers get a promise from the city that it won't raise the assessment on the property for at least 10 years. That, plus the reduced utility costs due the extra insulation and higher-efficiency appliances make it so most families have had no problems holding on.
Plus, I read today that HomeLife Communities, the Raleigh builder that built the house, paid off all the Riggins' family mortgage and medical bills as an "added gift." Nice of them to do that, and it should make it so Miss Linda can keep working at the community center they also remodeled.
