Because When We Say Think Of The Children It’s Not Political Posturing, We Are Guarding The Future. This Little Girl Is Our Future And Needs Our Help

If you swing by here then you undoubtedly have heard of the trials and tribulations Big Country and his wife Gretchen have been going through in trying to get custody of their Grand daughter and the ensuing legal nightmare that it has entailed.

The fundraising is ongoing, as anything involving the legal system in this country seems to be designed to bankrupt anyone caught up in it’s spider web of bullshit.

Big Country (William) and his wife live in Florida and are having to fight this legal battle in Tennessee.

The logistics alone are a nightmare but trying to work for a living, take care of Adriana’s little sister and interact with lawyers and an “allegedly” corrupt judge in a little podunk county court several states away would be enough to push anyone past their limits.

Word has gotten around and now Billy and Gretchen have got a huge bit of advertising about their plight that is going around the world thanks to an awesome guy that I know also reads this blog, Scouter Greg and someone who he contacted that has the stroke to make this go viral, Chris Muir.

You may not recognize that name but you will instantly recognize what he does and what a huge, off the scale boost for the cause he just pulled off.

Off. The. Scale.

God Bless Scouter Greg for getting ahold of Mr. Muir and pitching this and God Bless Chris Muir for stepping up to the plate.

You can help out if you would like by clicking on this link and donating to the cause yourself. Sixty five thousand dollars may or may not be enough to see this through to the end but that is the goal for now.

The difference between us and The Left is as plain as Wirecutter’s favorite sign off.

OPERA NON VERBA

Deeds, not words.

Who knows, with everyone’s help, we could be setting the stage for seeing Adriana Grace do great things in the future.

After all, that’s why we are here in the first place.

Warning! Proceeding Past This Point May Result In Serious Personal Injury

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.

The Local Real Estate Market Is Cratering As I Type

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.
