<0> Not much fun in Toronto, either, is it, pimpie, waiting for the Tory bomb to drop?
<1> it's not.. but with the minority government they won't be able to screw us over too bad!
<1> next election i think - within 12 months
<0> I hope you're right. :)
<1> i only hope i'm right if it will mean anything.. more minority governments are going to get us nowhere.. i have a bad feeling we're gonna be stuck in political limbo for the next few years which is bad becuase the world is changing SO FAST right now
<2> pimpie: no, the world isn't changing
<1> LOL!!!
<2> the world is mostly the same as it's been for the past several hundred million years
<2> there are a few more condos
<1> really!?..
<2> yah
<1> ok!
<1> i'll take your word for it
<2> humans are acting a little weird however
<1> not weird
<2> but the world hasn't changed much
<1> i'd disagree
<2> k
<1> i'll conceede that the earth has not gotten larger or heavier or anything, but diseases are different, i'd say at least over the past 100 years this climate (cycle) has changed, economics has changed.. these are all global forces
<1> world not= to earth
<0> I noticed the condo thing, last few million or so.
<2> yeah
<2> too many damn condos
<0> Theme condos, now.
<2> pimpie: blah, the majority of the world's population are primitive
<2> they wouldn't know the difference between dialup and DSL
<1> definitly, but there has been a GREAT move to western style economics and competition over the past 40 years.. the way our parents and grandparents lived will not be the way we live
<2> damn shame too
<1> no kidding.. not for the better
<0> I think the population is a bigger problem than the technology.
<1> from an environmental standpoint or what?
<2> from a cost of housing standpoint
<2> they don't figure housing costs in the CPI
<2> the CPI lies
<2> isn't that right Katey
<0> We're overtaxing the planet's ability to compensate for us.
<1> haha.. who cares about the CPI.. what are americans going to do when there are no good unskilled jobs in the economy?
<3> umm.....
<3> sure!
<3> ;)
<2> pimpie: polish each other's mercedes?
<3> We're already there
<3> There aren't good unskilled jobs
<1> do you mean, that old GM workers will get a job at a car detailing shop?
<2> I have seen the future and it belongs to Hyundai
<3> except maybe garbage collection
<1> Hyndai is KEY!
<0> "Planet sneezes, casts off PITA species. 'Feeling much better', says beleaguered planet"
<2> H-y-u-n-d-a-i yew heathen :)
<2> hehehe
<1> don't post it on a korean irc channel or they'll get mad
<3> Where do Saturns figure into this?
<2> k
<3> That's what I have
<1> saturns = gm = done
<3> ok
<2> Saturn is dead meat
<3> :(
<1> yeppers
<2> better get a KIA
<3> I like my Saturn
<1> i like my volvo
<2> commie!
<2> hehehe
<0> I got a frightening call from my Saturn dealer. Always wants to come over and help me with stuff.
<3> Same here
<1> the word you were looking for was "turbo"
<3> Well, I actually got a call from the factory
<2> [Word]: like raking leaves and stuff?
<3> Someone from there called me to ask me how the car was doing and if I had any questions
<3> weird
<0> I WISH it was just yardwork.
<2> o i c
<2> ***ual favors then
<4> I wish the ford factory would call me. I would really like to unload on a listening ear from ford
<3> [Word], would they come over and get the asbestos out of the basement of the house we're buying?
<0> Ever see THAT on the ads? Noooo.
<2> Katey: never mind the asbestos, fix the radon first
<5> I vote cover the Radon with the asbestos.
<3> aha!
<0> Yes, Katey, but it'd cost you more than watercress sandies and soup.
<2> that works too Astro
<3> jhicks, well, the abestos needs to go. It's crumbly.
<1> what like you breathe on it and it goes everywhere?
<2> http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060201/ap_on_go_ot/iraq_contract_bribes <- yer tax dollars at work
<3> pimpie, well, it's headed in that direction.
<3> There's not a lot of it.
<1> what's the worst that's gonna happen!?
<3> But dealing with even a small amount is a bit of a production
<5> Katey: They can probably wrap it, instead of remove it.
<1> dude, you want asbestos REMOVED!?
<3> Astrodog, yeah, but that could pose problems in the future
<3> It's on some pipes
<6> I've seen it on TV. Don't they come out and put a plastic thing around the room or the house?
<3> if the pipes need to be worked on then it becomes a problem
<2> Katey: you don't smoke do you?
<1> LOL!
<3> the contractor I talked to today said he charges the same for encapsulation or removal
<3> so I want removal
<2> screw it, you can risk a little emphysema
<3> jhicks, no
<3> lol
<6> The thing with a problem like that .. if you don't deal with it .. it will bite you in the butt when you want to sell. You will have to do it then.
<6> for someone else
<3> CometBaby, yep
<2> you could lie
<3> I can't believe the seller didn't deal with it before he put the house on the market
<1> that's not something to hard to find in a home inspection
<3> pretty dumb
<3> any inspection will find it
<0> Greets, CometBaby.
<6> katey did he disclose it?
<6> hi word :)
<3> CometBaby, no
<3> but he's not required to
<2> huh?!?
<3> It's our job to do our due dilligence
<6> when the inspection found it .. did you demand that he deal with it ?
<3> yeah
<1> buyer beware
<1> what's the latin on that!?
<3> He says he'll pay for encapsulation
<2> caveat emptor
<1> caveat emptor!?
<7> [Word] reminds me of MrRod
<2> that's not my favorite latin saying however
<6> Katey I would think that's probably reasonable. He would pay some .. you would pay some.
<2> "Sic Semper Tyrannis"
<3> But I found a contractor who is licensed by the state who says he charges the same for both removal or encapsulation
<3> CometBaby, yeah, I'm ready to pay the difference if it comes to that
<6> well then they pay for it all. Be sure they understand that its the same price either way.
<1> semper ubis sub usbis.. something like that is "always wear underwear"
<2> bwahahah
<3> CometBaby, yeah, we're still in the back and forth stage with the realtors
<6> Katey is this the one where they have to put like a bubble around the house?
<3> CometBaby, I don't think so. It's only in the basement
<6> so the dust doesn't escape.
<6> ahh okay
<5> Katey: You might be able to get them to come down a bit on the house, too. Heh.
<2> When I was a kid my dad's business had this space heater with fluffy asbestos backing
<3> Astrodog, I'd rather them just pay for it
<1> i hope it's not contagious!
<2> i think it's stuck in there for good
<3> Astrodog, coming down $1500 on the price of the house won't bite as much as being out of $1500 in cash as we're trying to move
<8> katey, remove the asbestos yourself, not that hard at all....put that money in your pocket
<3> yowz|, lol
<9> is the paint full of lead also? heh
<8> i would
<2> mask
