Muppets make this world so much better to live in.
That song makes me cry tears of joy. And I'm not even drunk.

Dream HouseCategory: buffalo
Considering...
1. I love mansard roofs
2. I am jealous of not have a mansion like (e:MPT)
3. I think I could afford the mortgage, but probably not the heating bills
This is my dream house:
Huge double lot, brick, second empire house. A bit in a bad area maybe though... Niagara Street near the college and armory.

$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?

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

Estrip is DyingCategory: estrip
As you can see from this graph, Estrip activity is exponentially decreasing over time, a disaster in the making, and soon no one will be posting comments.
You all must view and post comments to my journal, thus propelling me into Silver Medalist position... err I mean thus saving Estrip!
Late Update:
Thanks to your hard work, we've saved Estrip!

That is the one. Cheap and mediocre food!
uhm... were you at Zhang's Buffet on Union? It looks familiar and until you mentioned it was at a buffet, i couldn't figure out where i would have seen such a... uh... lovely piece of art.
It is at a Chinese Buffet ( I forget which ) and I think it was made out of rabbit fur. Paul had to sit next to it and almost died I think.
you are a freaking freak~~! Is that really real cat fur?
That is creepy and weird.
And why does the kitty look sooooo sad?
you have some 'splainin' to do.
is that a needle point kitty made with actual car fur?
