speedz99 145 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 so I am now the proud owner of half of 86 acres. not 43 acres, but half of 86. whatever, it's mine, and I love it. and I will hug it and pet it and love it and hug it. who needs a woman's touch when you can cut wood on your own land? NOBODY. I would have made a great homesteader. Who owns the other half and what's your plan for the land? Your land plan. I don't remember you asking our advice on whether you should own this land. It was probably in that 6 pages you missed. Link to post Share on other sites
brvheart 1,752 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Pretty hot here today. They say 90 and I believe them. It's supposed to be 84 in the Windy City. I think he said it was his sister that owned the other half, but who knows if he even has a sister. Link to post Share on other sites
iZuma 764 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 nope, my dead uncle. now his wife, at least as soon as all of that is sorted out. hopefully she'll want to sell her half so I can buy it using my current half as collateral. really need a better job to be comfortable there but I'll figure something out. sell my car if I have to.

speedz99 145 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 So is it just for camping, lawn-mowing, and log-cutting, or are you going to build a homestead? Link to post Share on other sites
InternetExplorer 2,609 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 well, it's 6 months now. I have a 1:1 with my manager this week. kinda wondering if I'm best off looking somewhere else of they're going to make me wait the full year (I qualify now if you count my time as a temp). I feel like my department's VP isn't going to let me go early. I can do what I did here for other places. I proved that with the government stint. kinda figure with the job market looking up, it won't be hard to trump the $32k they will bump me to 6 months from now. I don't know.

iZuma 764 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 So is it just for camping, lawn-mowing, and log-cutting, or are you going to build a homestead? all of the above possibly. it's mainly just to keep it in the family as I'm pretty much the only one that wouldn't sell it at the first opportunity. but I would eventually like to put a house there maybe, and even if I don't, it's still a pretty good investment I figure. plus if I own it outright I'll be a landowner and can finally wear a cowboy hat.

speedz99 145 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I don't know. I don't either. You should try to get back on that spacefox (or whatever) team. all of the above possibly. it's mainly just to keep it in the family as I'm pretty much the only one that wouldn't sell it at the first opportunity. but I would eventually like to put a house there maybe, and even if I don't, it's still a pretty good investment I figure. plus if I own it outright I'll be a landowner and can finally wear a cowboy hat. I thought you were already a landowner? Or maybe you don't consider the shack to be on real land. Fair point. And no way to prove you wrong either. :throws hands up: I WON ONE! Play it cool, speedz.

iZuma 764 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I thought you were already a landowner? Or maybe you don't consider the shack to be on real land. well yeah if we're counting land like ocho counts land then I've already got a vast estate, but no, I'm not really counting my current three acres as being in "landowner" status. a man's gotta be able to stand and look across a vast acreage of trees and fields to be able to call himself a landowner.

NickCave 194 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Slippy Toad! Falco Lombardi had the best sound effect in the original. And the best name of all time. I love to imagine the writers workshopping potential names. "Well, he's a Falcon, so what if we chop the last letter off? Make him EDGY. 'Falco,' the Italian Falcon. Wait, is Falco Italian? That sounds, you know, like a pretty Italian name. Right? Anybody have any last name ideas? Come on, people, pitches, pitches, pitches." Link to post Share on other sites

brvheart 1,752 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I know I'm totally alone on this, but I've never really understood why top ranking recuits go to powerhouse schools. At a powerhouse, they are just one of many. If they went to a lesser school, then they would be a god forever at that school. They wouldn't have to pay for anything, and they would always have a job, even once they go bankrupt from wasting all their NBA money. Link to post Share on other sites

Probably in something resembling that order, and ignoring things like "cash." Besides, players like Wiggins aren't going to be "one of many" no matter where they go Link to post Share on other sites
