During Newsweek's Oscar roundtable, actor George Clooney shared his experience as a neighbor of Britney Spears the night the troubled pop tart was in a standoff with police after refusing to turn over her son Jayden James in her child custody case. "
Ever wonder what’s up with your neighbors? Or more importantly, what is the demographic composition of my pseudo defined neighborhood in relation to my state and the US? A newly discovered, by me, website complies information from the census and the current population survey and produces a series of interesting demographic tables searchable by zip [...]
After losing his beautiful view of the mountains, Mark Easton, a Utah councilman, complained about his neighbor's newly built house for being a little higher (18 inches) than ordinances would allow.Being forced by the authorities to drop his roof line at great expense, the neighbor decided to "remodel" his house a little.This is the councilman's new view:via
I was watching King of Queens today and this soooo reminded me of my husband....and Bruno, cuz they seem like two peas in a pod. Carrie and Doug were getting new neighbors and Carrie suggested they go over and say 'hello.' Then she decided against that, saying she didn't want to give them the "wrong idea....that we want to be friends." Doug said, "I think I'll start them off with a wave, then I'll wean them down to a nod. And not a friendly nod either." LOL!All through the Christmas season, I kept feeling like there was something important I was forgetting to do, but I couldn't think of what it was. I just kept thinking I needed to do something important. Yesterday morning after work, I stopped at the grocery store and a guy coming out motioned to my car and said, "Dumping your Christmas tree?" I looked at the evergreen tree still strapped to the roof of my Rio and said, "Umm, yeah, uh huh. That's where I was going with it..." Thank God he noticed. I might have been riding around w

Just interesting...From FNC: For the first time astronomers have witnessed a supermassive black hole blasting its galactic neighbor with a deadly beam of energy.The "death star galaxy," as NASA astronomers called it, could obliterate the atmospheres of planets but also trigger the birth of stars in the wake of its destructive beam.Fortunately, the cosmic violence is a safe distance from our own neck of the cosmos.Technorati Tags: news, education, black hole, science
Won’t You Be My Neighbor(Marlow UMC 7/15/07)Scripture Reading: Like 10: 25-37Prayer:Sovereign Lord God JehovahBe with us we pray as we, together,Begin to discern who our neighbor really isSend your Holy Spirit down upon usThe giver of your knowledge and wisdomMay we have eyes to see,Ears to hearAnd a willingness to obeyAnd we pray this in the Strong Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and SaviorAmenSermon:How many of you remember the TV. “Show Mr. Rogers Neighborhood”? I remember it very well. I remember the neighborhood song he would sing at the start of each show. The verse I remember the most is “I always wanted to have a neighbor just like you…I always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you. So, let’s make the most of this beautiful day…since were together we might as well say. Would you be mine, could you be mine, won’t you be my neighbor.

Answer: No. It’s always better to trade up in a buyer’s market, like the one we are in now. While the value of your house has fallen, the price of higher-end homes has also dropped. Your home value is now down 10 percent to $270,000. But don’t forget that in today’s buyer’s market, higher priced homes are also dropping in price.
But for argument’s sake, let’s say that a $500,000 move-up home has also dropped 10 percent in value and now sells at $450,000. If you sold your home today for $270,000 and purchased the larger house for $450,000, the difference in price would be $180,000.
But if you waited to recoup the 10 percent value on your home and sold it at $300,000, chances are that same move-up home would also move up in price to at least $500,000. That’s a $200,000 price difference between the two homes. So by selling today, you would actually save $20,000. And most likely, by jumping into the market today your savings would be even greater because consumers have much
