The Repo Bus.
Foreclosures are running so thick in Stockton California that a real estate broker has started a tour bus service to bring prospective buyers to view foreclosed homes. If you’re interested in touring the foreclosed homes of Stockton you can sign up at RepoHomeTour.com

I dunno…
I kind of see this blog as that bus, with all of us passengers, and Thumbs driving all the while spouting stuff like:
“Smile for a sunny day! Horse man never come to Vancouver ok? IT! IS! NOT! OVER!”
While the rest of us laugh and point out the steadily declining rents and other signs of things to come…..

thumbsup, there may be “50 ways to leave” this thread/blog, as m-r suggests, but i’m worried that the blog will suffer terribly without you. about 50 to 75% of the words posted are either by you, about you or expressing anger or frustration to you. when people get tired of the long, long boring wait for the impending housing crash which may not happen for another two or three years, what will they do for a diversion if you leave the blog? you serve as a useful topic for discussion in between snippets of news. let me encourage you with “go, grasshopper, go” … think of it as your public service commitment.
regarding “horse man”, you’re not translating from chinese are you? did you get the wrong tone on “ma”? were you thinking “mother” or “curse” but translated “horse”? even if you did, i still don’t know what you were talking about.

thumbsup, what were you smoking yesterday? i can usually figure out what you’re saying but not the “horse man” posts.

I dedicate this song to you
The problem is all inside your head, I say to you
The answer is easy if you take it logically
Id like to help you in your struggle to be free from this place
There must be fifty ways to leave this thread
I say its really not my habit to intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning wont be lost or misconstrued
But Ill repeat myself at the risk of being crude
There must be fifty ways to leave this thread
Fifty ways to just fuck off
Just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free
Just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free
I say it grieves me so to see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
About the fifty ways
I say why dont you just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning youll begin to see the light
And then I’ll diss you and you’ll realize I am probably right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave and never come back
Just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free
You just slip out the back, jack
Make a new plan, stan
You dont need to be coy, roy
Just get yourself free
Hop on the bus, gus
You dont need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, lee
And get yourself free

I remember when busloads of people from Hong Kong would tour Vancouver and buy real estate in the late ’80s and early ’90s.

AWESOME! I think I’ll look into starting this kind of business in Vancouver a few years from now

Ought to have been a ‘64 Malibu I think…. but I guess the demand was too great.
