The Epic Face Plant Competition?

Like getting your face ripped off.

Elthe Kyrie, In this iteration, translated loosely from Greek, COME LORD.

One of the key liturgical prayers in the Mass of the Catholic Church, the Kyrie is a simple request for mercy. Written in Latin, you only need to learn two lines, making the English translation even easier to memorize.

The Translation of the “Kyrie”

The Kyrie is actually a transliteration, using the Latin alphabet to spell out a Greek word (Κύριε ἐλέησον). The lines are extremely simple and easy to interpret into English.

Lord Have Mercy, this kicks ass.

I found this while scrolling around the sidebar on Youtube yesterday after work.

I have been gone to a funeral and family gathering all day and haven’t had a chance to check this out personally but you can bet I will be.

I registered for a Redfin update for my local area a couple of years ago to see what was happening around here and watched that whole feeding frenzy go crazy in real time.

No joke, the AVERAGE price of a house in my area jumped One Hundred Thousand Dollars in one year.

Insanity ruled.

People making offers thousands of dollars over asking price .My Parents place sold for a ridiculous amount of money after being on the market for two weeks, a cash offer , WITH NO INSPECTION REQUIRED!

Absolutely crazy.

It was typical of what was going on all over the country.

Well, times have changed.

Like I said, I get these email updates from this outfit.

Over the last two weeks I have deleted HUNDREDS of notices of houses announcing ASKING PRICE DROPS.

There were also several notices of Asking Price Increases, people still chasing the ones P.T Barnam allegedly spoke about all those years ago.

The price drops outpacing the increases twenty to one.

Can you say Market Correction?

Reality has finally started creeping back in and now there are going to be millions of people who are going to be finding themselves UPSIDE DOWN in their over priced dwellings.

In the mean time, The Fed has jacked up the interest rates so mortgage rates naturally followed right along and now DEMAND has fallen off a cliff.

Contractors are seeing record numbers of people backing out of home building deals and are stuck building houses just to finish them so they can sit unsold and unoccupied.

I have been waiting at least ten years for this market correction to happen. I have also been watching dumbfounded as the price of housing has skyrocketed year after year after year.

With mortgage rates now so high, nobody is closing deals unless they absolutely have to.

Now I am waiting to see where the bottom is.

Because this should be a looooooooong drop.

You can listen to this while you browse some more worthy sites.

I’m dead serious.

Florida’s Velocity Modern Classics  rebuilds ’em from the frame up, puts a new 5.0 L “Coyote” engine in ’em, brand new interior, Drive Train etc. and is asking $285 Grand.

If you want the Two Tone paint, a Tow Package, Billet Hardware and some other goodies, it’ll run ya $325.000.00.

And Someone, is actually buying these things!

Oh it’s nice, don’t get me wrong but let me show you something here.

One of my Brothers picked up this completely restored 76 Ford F-250 4X4 last year with a rebuilt 360 V8, brand new interior etc. etc. etc.,

for $27.000.00.

Silly me, here I thought this thing was expensive!

It’s a sweet assed truck too, trust me, I drove it.

You will notice, the total purchase price included a custom front bumper, winch and there is a freaking tow package hanging off the ass under another custom bumper!!

Anyone who pays over a Quarter of a Million Dollars for a pickup is a COMPLETE fucking moron with WAY too much disposable income in my book.

H/T to Uncle Clif High.

Or any of the several other rather nasty things that result from getting Jabbed.
