Smorgasbord of Stuff

Smorgasbord of stuff:

If you, like me, think that trial lawyers and the Consumer Product Safety Commission have made today’s kids into pathetic wusses, you definitely do not want to read about World Against Toys Harming Children (WATCH – what a stupid, stupid acronym)’s 10 Most Dangerous Toys list, but I do think you ought to read Lance Prevert’s Kids Today Are Wimps list of why some of these “dangerous” toys are just nonsense.  Caution: hilarity alert.

Apparently, some people are discovering that a 2500 sq. ft. house on Long Island costs 3x as much as the same house in Daytona, and they’re moving.  Shocker.  Here’s the big story.  Note the part of the article about Los Angeles, which is way overpriced, so people are leaving and moving to Las Vegas.  Las Vegas is now overpriced.  So people are looking for property close by, still warm, and on a major highway.  Voila!  St. George is now the hottest market in Utah.  If you look, you’ll see that we predicted that some 18 months ago.  You have to go to www.thechrisjonesgroup.com and take the link on the left side to get to the archives.  But we did predict it.  Trust me.

My predictions were mostly right on, except that BYU’s furious rally from 18 points down with 8 minutes left failed to overtake the USC Trojans (got to within 1, but couldn’t close it).  Otherwise, everything was right on.  Sorry.
