In the last post, I highlighted a few really cool items.  Now, I'm going to move the other way and look at some cheap (but still cool) stuff.  Of course, I think that the most links I've come across have been regarding tool storage.  And, tool storage is a biggie.  Personally, I have two bottom b...

I need to find more cool garage stuff.  So, off to Google I go... hhm.. I try to type in cool garage toys to see if I can come up with... cool garage toys, or at least some websites about cool garage toys.  What did I get?  Number one was watches.  Watches.  This is an organic result.  Ok, I can ...

Have you heard of that word before?  It is a blend of cooperation and competition.  I think the word was coined by Dale Waltrip while announcing NASCAR races.   During a NASCAR race, especially on the higher speed tracks, like Talladega and Atlanta, a single car is not as fast as a group of cars....

It time for me to make my prognostications for the coming market, while recapping that which has happened. Please keep in mind that even on the 18th of September, the numbers for August WILL change.  I will come back and correct them before posting the October results.  I originally posted the Ju...

Z06 Corvette, Nissan 240Z, Z28 (1LE!), Zamboni, Zagato, Zonda, some other fabulous car beginning with Z.... No.   Zillow.  I mean really, this is a real estate blog.  How could I go through the alphabet and not hit Zillow for Z?  If you don't know what Zillow is, go ahead and Google it... we'll w...

While on another site, I ran across a fun little "tool" that is strictly for fun. It's even kind of real estate related...Basically, you enter a few things about yourself on a questionnaire, and a home is generated for you. Mine had one of my garages full of Ferraris. How appropriate is that? I d...
