  1. ROFL, lechecal, I haven’t heard that one! I just think I’ve watched “Night of the Living Dead” one too many times (my acting teacher was one of the non-Zombies) and read too many Stephen King novels.

  2. Interesting point Kens (at the risk of bringing a real estate discussion into the OT).

    Renters are not going to put up with rising rents in this economy so the landlords are going to have to wear the tax increases = lower net yield = lower achievable prices for sales that do go through.

    Bernanke & Co may be trying to keep the RE market afloat but Bloomberg is tugging it back down again.

  3. lechecal, I can’t believe I not only followed your post on Zombies vs. Killer Robots (great movie concept, btw!), but agree with you totally. Perhaps I’ve seen one too many Zombie movies, but, if you have the ammo, you can take ’em all out. Robots, not so much.

  4. hipster, remember that that friend of mine I told you about – the one who lives around the corner from the Brooklyn Inn? He and I have strategized at some length over many cocktails at the Brooklyn Inn as to how exactly one would survive the zombie apocalypse in New York City. We concluded that surviving the zombie apocalypse would be easier than surviving an attack of killer robots because zombies, even though potentially great in number, are comparatively easy to put down (blow / shot to head – I mean come on, everyone knows how to kill a zombie) and are much dumber than killer robots. Problem is, depending on the killer robots they might be easier to hide from than zombies, which can access any space that a human can shuffle into. But I would say that on balance I would rather face a zombie apocalypse than an attack of the killer robots.

  5. I just saw a FSBO on 6th Av btwn Lincoln & St. John’s in the Slope – #159. Nice house from the outside – no idea of details. Will get phone number next time when I’m not carrying a ton of stuff if anyone’s interested.
