Today looks like an “off his meds” day. The flow of consciousness is truly amazing, truly. The ability to move from one point to a logical conclusion is unprecedented.
“Everyone else read those stories about 3 hours ago What. God, you’re just so damned insightful.”
You know something Dave? The Whuh is right about you! That’s panic!!!!!!
“And yet, more houses will sell today and tomorrow!!!”
Sure will Dave, just 75% off the peak price!
“Did you get any skittles yet???”
No but Ben Bernanke is passing them out to Congress right now…
Bernanke Sees 2010 Recovery ‘Only If’ Banks Stabilize (Update2)
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=apuPjf3aW_H8&refer=home
Feb. 24 (Bloomberg) — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the U.S. economy is in a “severe†contraction, and warned the recession may last into 2010 unless policy makers can stabilize the financial system.
Hey Retards read this paragraph over and over again…
““Downside risks probably outweigh those on the upside,†Bernanke said today in his semiannual testimony on the economy, adding that the Fed’s own forecast was clouded by “considerable uncertainty.—
Hey don’t believe me! Just keep going on…
“he 55-year-old chairman faces what former Fed chief Paul Volcker called last week a “massive economic crisis,†with rising unemployment, an accelerating decline in output and more than $700 billion in losses and writedowns at financial firms. Bernanke’s outlook was the most negative of any of the semiannual testimonies he has provided to Congress in his three years at the central bank’s helm.”
No no no Brownstone prices will go up this year, NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
Oy Vey!
oh, i am so opening a SY synagogue next to my house.
Mr. B;
Please note that 172 Ave. P is also Gravesend, not even close to Midwood. I know this area well, as I spent most of my childhood there.
More specifically, this is the western (and more humble) portion of Gravesend, not to be confused with the eastern half of the uber-wealthy Syrian Jewish enclave. Note the difference in price wbetween the house on East 2nd, and that on Ave. P, for which the cross-street is West 7th.
I’ll lead the field trip to Gravesend!
Everyone else read those stories about 3 hours ago What. God, you’re just so damned insightful.
And yet, more houses will sell today and tomorrow!!!
Did you get any skittles yet???
I wonder if DIBS will come on here and crow.
Where are the Brownstones????? I thought Brownstones was very expensive and everyone wants to live in Asshat Hill??? For the last couple of weeks the Brownstones have disappear from Last Week’s Biggest Sales. I wonder why? Maybe this had something to do with it???
Housing Prices in 20 U.S. Cities Fall a Record 18.5% (Update2)
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aIr7LleihO1E&refer=home
Feb. 24 (Bloomberg) — Home prices in 20 U.S. cities declined 18.5 percent in December from a year earlier, the fastest drop on record, as foreclosures climbed and sales sank.
That’s gotta leave a mark..
“Record foreclosures are contributing to declining property values and household wealth, crippling the consumer spending that makes up about 70 percent of the economy. The Obama administration has pledged to spend $275 billion to help stabilize the housing market, including $75 billion to bring down mortgage rates and encourage loan modifications.”
Well.. I think the “Told you so’s” are LTMMFAO!!!
“Confidence among U.S. consumers plunged to a record low this month, signaling spending will slump further as unemployment soars. The Conference Board’s index declined more than forecast to 25 this month, the lowest level since data began in 1967, from a January reading of 37.4, the New York-based research group said today.”
Game Over…
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
I don’t see anything selling at half off, BHO.
