1588 Warm!

Tuesday, December 11, 2007

I had ordered online several bottles of a special shampoo. They arrived today. The box was stuffed with newspaper, and the bottles were wrapped in newspaper - which happened to be the real estate section of a Birmingham, Alabama, paper.

I was smoothing and flattening the pages to put into the recycle bags, and of course I read them.

OMG! Beautiful houses, half again the size of mine, for half the price! I could take a huge "loss" on this house, and STILL upgrade.

And it's WARM there!

What's the deal? Does no one want to move to Birmingham? What's wrong with Birmingham?

Update: Ok. I have just been told it's the most backward, racist, place in the country. Mensa's national gathering was there this past summer, and was boycotted by many members because of that. I forgot that's where it was.
