Here's To Our Future
My heartfelt thanks to all of my fellow Brownstoner addicts who showed up last night and made our gathering an absolutely fantastic event. It was wonderful meeting new friends and being reacquainted with old friends. To those who wanted to attend but couldn’t, hopefully we’ll have another party somewhere down the road.

My heartfelt thanks to all of my fellow Brownstoner addicts who showed up last night and made our gathering an absolutely fantastic event. It was wonderful meeting new friends and being reacquainted with old friends. To those who wanted to attend but couldn’t, hopefully we’ll have another party somewhere down the road. Special thanks to you Mr. B for allowing me to announce the event in the Forum and for joining us in the celebration. And I promise this is my last Forum post for awhile!
Lot’s of fun last night everyone. I usually don’t get involved in the “what” conversations but I can attest that he wasn’t really the subject of any of the conversations that I was a part of.
“Then what was it “about”?”
Oh, he tees it up for me! It was about proving to ignoramus misanthropes like you that life is about a lot more than money.
Here let me leave you with this little diddy from PAUL KRUGMAN.
Let’s Get Fiscal

“Now the housing bubble has burst in turn, leaving the financial landscape strewn with wreckage. Even if the ongoing efforts to rescue the banking system and unfreeze the credit markets work — and while it’s early days yet, the initial results have been disappointing — it’s hard to see housing making a comeback any time soon. And if there’s another bubble waiting to happen, it’s not obvious. So the Fed will find it even harder to get traction this time.”
The What
Someday this war is gonna end..
“What, you just can’t admit to being wrong, can you? You spend all this time telling everyone how wrong they were to buy their homes (real estate), and harp all about a “Mutant Asset Bubble. Have anyone in Brooklyn’s homes gone down itn value 40% in the last year like the Dow? You stole this whole “Mutant Asset Bubble” thing from MSNBC after it already started.”
Ok Darkshit, let me help you out. Go get a Mortgage Matrix from any lending institution and look at the rate sheet and look at the guidelines. Mortgage lending is dried up and they are not loaning any more money to dipshits to buy overpriced housing.
You are to be a troll but there are not many stories that support your thesis. Go back to the hole you came from and get Dave. Tell him to explain about what I wrote earlier about Hedge Funds.
Darkshit=Fail..
The What (The Crown Holder)
Someday this war is gonna end…
I arrived late & couldn’t find a name tag but had some good chats. Especially enjoyed talking to Peter of the cool Bed Stuy Reno. Maybe you and G. could write a new entry to update everyone on your progress? Sounds like you are approaching the finishing line.
11233–how did we not meet? That’s a bummer for me.
P.S. What, that doom and gloom you predicted (in real estate, not equities, regardless of what you say now)? It ain’t gonna happen. Banks are already starting to loosen up their lending:

Biff, You can’t hand off the next outing to somebody else. You Championed this. You were so good at organizing it.
