$333! that's crazy. what temp do you keep it at? 85 degrees? :) We kept it at 70 during the day and 65 at night. It can be chilly but you could just throw on a sweater. Do you have storm windows?

tinypliny - 09/04/07 20:23
If "Mansard Roofs" are the ones with the hexagonal/pentagonal tiles, I adore them! They are perfect.

$450 a month in a 4000 sq. foot 100 year-old house? I have an 850 sq foot apartment in 100 year-old house. My highest heating bill was $333. Did I mention I did the whole plastic thing and caulked the windows? That's just not right. Not right at all, I say!

matthew - 09/04/07 17:33
very nice! The heating might not be as bad as you think, if you're careful. Our house is about 4,000 sq feet. and our highest heating bill last winter was $450. We had a new high efficiency furnace installed this summer, so this winter's heat bill should be even lower. and just imagine if we tweaked our windows! i remember everyone telling me i was crazy when we bought our Linwood house because the heating bills would be "crazy". But they were wrong. if the house is built well (which i have no doubt an 1860's buffalo 2nd empire is) it contains the heat well and keeps the cold out for an 100 year old house. Just heat the main rooms during the day and the bedrooms at night. Also, it says that one of the fireplaces is in working order. Score!

Now if only it stays on the market until the spring!

jason - 09/04/07 16:00
Looks like a fantastic (although freaking giant) home. Living in a little apartment for so long, I think I might feel odd having so much space.

joshua - 09/04/07 10:22
That heating bill has to be murder though. Murder, I say!

fellyconnelly - 09/03/07 21:36
oh thats great!
buy it and invite me for parties!

drew - 09/03/07 20:22
Wow! This seems like a great deal.

jim - 09/03/07 17:20
Yeah... I think we'll end up staying in Buffalo just so we can buy an awesome house and waste all the earth's resources in keeping it warm through winter.

joshua - 09/03/07 17:19
Hmm - that is in very good condition for its age, at least from the outside.

Personally, my dream house is a beach home in California... but I'm still saving my nickels.

fellyconnelly - 09/03/07 21:35
comment NOT tossed! ha james! the indian can continue crying!

jenks - 09/03/07 20:50
i attribute it to the weekend. Just wait til everyone is back at their desks again tomorrow.

paul - 09/03/07 18:22
I think 50 comments a day is normal and we are just comming down from a hardcore comment binge, lol.

james - 09/03/07 16:07
In a forest somewhere there is an Indian crying as the last comment is thrown out.

fellyconnelly - 09/03/07 15:58
nono statistics do not lie! but maybe comments should be posted on MY journal? hmm yes?

jim - 09/03/07 15:53
Statistics do not lie - a downward spiral is undeniable unless you all act now!

fellyconnelly - 09/03/07 15:50
ah yes, just another wayward fellow using statistical data for personal gain....
couldn't be satisfied with bronze, could you? tsk tsk

jim - 09/02/07 14:12
I updated this journal with all the rest of the photos. You may need to clear your browser cache and then refresh if you see weird squished photos.

paul - 09/02/07 13:17
Oh, I see it now on the flickr page.

paul - 09/02/07 13:16
Which one of (e:jill)?

paul - 09/02/07 13:12
Jim, you can upload more into any journal. It only lets you choose 20 at a time. The n you can load 20 more.

metalpeter - 09/02/07 13:11
The Graphic ones are nice nothing wrong with those. The limbo pictures came out really good that one of (e:jill) is amazing.

paul - 09/02/07 13:11
My favorite one is the last one of megan and I.

libertad - 09/02/07 13:01
Paul is such a filthy pig rolling around in that porn.

Did Mike and I pose for that picture you posted of us on estrip? I like the one of us in the dining room.

I love that card I got Terry that looks like Andy Warhol. Fabulous! Your the boss applesauce!

Nice pics. I think my camera would have a hard time in those low-lighting situations because I don't use the flash (its hideous). I tend to get a blur in those situations, sometimes I like that though.

jim - 09/02/07 12:52
I took out a couple graphic ones, sorry!

lauren - 09/02/07 12:26
Fabulous pics as usual! Yay for cute little sugar gliders, nipples, and fire!

jim - 09/02/07 11:56
Peter, thanks! And done: :::link:::

There are the rest...

metalpeter - 09/02/07 11:31
If you up load all your pictures to another site you can give us a link to it or even another journal.

metalpeter - 09/02/07 11:12
Great pictures and thanks for posting them the one of (e:lilho) is great that is one picture that I wish I would have gotten of her video chatting with someone the two of (e:paul) where you can see the picture of what he is looking at is great to. I didn't realise how big that fire got, again great pictures.

jenks - 09/02/07 10:19
wow... I definitely left too early.

fellyconnelly - 08/31/07 22:24
those are sexy! well worth the wait!

tinypliny - 08/31/07 20:08
I think it's the most beautiful *and lucid* font ever. I use it for my letters and reports mainly because I know that most of my recipients (till now) are all tottering steadily toward 3+ hypermetropic visions. The font is clear enough without being ghastly and plain - like other fonts in, what I like to call, the hypermetropics category. It is somewhat annoying that M$ Windoze doesn't have Lucida Grande on it, and I needed to install an approximate LG from somewhere.

I love the way the Mac fonts and colours look and feel - but I can't seem to switch completely because of one reason or the other - the foremost being that the software I work on (SAS) is so darned hideous and I don't have a license for the Mac version (if at all, that exists). Also, why is that, places like Roswell are all ultimates slaves to the M$ Garbage? They frown upon fine browsers like Firefox, let alone pure goodness like Opera. To add insult to injury, they then insist on using the pathetic excuse for a browser called IEeeks. It's just appalling.

Phew. I needed to get that off my chest. I realize now that 75% of my comment had nothing to do with Fedex taking 13 hours to drag their truck to your doorstep. :)

As a last-line attempt to steer this ramble into course - Congratulations!

jim - 08/31/07 19:44
Yeah, Lucida Grande, I choose a type face that was also available for use on my site, so they'd match, otherwise I'd have done a different font.

tinypliny - 08/31/07 19:42
They look pretty neat. Is the font Lucida Grande?

james - 08/31/07 15:08
When I turned 18 I felt a great loss. Now I never could do kiddie porn.

grains of sand in an hour glass Mr. Lindley.

tinypliny - 08/31/07 15:07
I haven't seen those movies...

• duly noted :)*

tinypliny - 08/31/07 14:27
I love that line where that kid from the 3rd rock goes something like: "One question before we talk, do you think you should be drinking when you have no liver?"

Hilarious!

drew - 08/31/07 14:21
Sorry to start all of this.

For the record, my favorite adults playing teens movie is Mean Girls.

I'm not really into the teen movie thing, but I had to watch it because it was writeen by Tina Fey. I will post 10 things I like about Tina Fey sometime soon.

jim - 08/31/07 14:15
My favorite Freddy Prinze Jr movie is [link=http://imdb.com/title/tt0192111/]Head over Heels[/link] where a beautiful girl (who dresses frumpy) moves in with 4 supermodels, and gets made over. Then, she falls in love for F.P.jr's character who may or may not be a serial killer, but she is not very concerned and keeps going out with him anyways.

Turns out he is a secret undercover agent working in the fashion world to uncover the brutal blood diamond traders, and they all team up, the main character, the supermodels, and the undercover agent, to stop the evil guys. And there is a great dane named Hamlet.

mike - 08/31/07 14:07
those are the best movies. Can't Hardly Wait is really the best one thoguh. don't you dare steal my 25 year old playing a 15 year old dream. When I turned 22 I really felt like I lost my chance because that is the age when the guy who played Dawson on Dawson's Creek was discovered while majoring in sociology like I was at the time. Maybe there is still a chance....

tinypliny - 08/31/07 14:01
You know what? I am WWWAAAY ahead of your game. I dug up that movie and watched it already, a couple days back (for about the 7th time) - and it was *all* Drew's fault. That movie was the first thing I thought of the minute.. no, the second I saw his first "10 things" list hit the estrip list.

Yeah, and I love pop movies and start crying the minute a James Horner/John Williams soundtrack screeches out of speakers. Heck, I don't even need any plotline - I cry watching trailers with emotional soundtracks.

So now that the basic qualifications have been outlined, do you think I could get a job too? I have one more year (maybe half) more than you. heheh.

And why pretend? I have stopped working altogether.
