collapsing geography: foreclosure math
http://ondrejka.blogspot.com/2009/03/foreclosure-math.html
Sunday, March 08, 2009. Via Google, estimates on total number of US homes current foreclosed or being foreclosed vary between 1M and 2M. Let us assume an upper bound of 2M homes. Median US home prices are freefall, currently around $175,000, down from a peak of over $300,000 in 2006. Of course, in foreclosed areas like Cleveland, the real value is basically $0. 1M homes) x ($300,000 lost) (1M homes) x ($300,000 - $175,000 lost) = $425 billion. OK, I'm not an expert, but given the astronomical sums we're ...

http://russianprincessmakes6.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Raising Three Boys and a Russian Princess. Sunday, July 26, 2009. So it was A's fourth birthday (hard to believe) and he kept going on and on about a "bounce house" he wanted to go to. He had heard about it from one of C1's friends and that was it. That was his birthday destination. My kids would scale these huge inflatable play sets and slide down the other side. They did it for 3 hours. I was hurting by the end though. Since RP is only 2 I had to accompany her on all the slides! No seems like a great t...

http://russianprincessmakes6.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Raising Three Boys and a Russian Princess. Sunday, February 28, 2010. So today was the Feast day for St.Katherine Drexel, the patron saint of our local church. They really did it up for the event. The Archbishop was there and he gave most of the service. The whole thing was outside in a local park and the entire church showed up. Then we had free hot dogs, hamburgers and cake! Well sort of free. They asked for donations and you sort of felt like you had to contribute something. Thursday, February 25, 2010.

The Virtue of a Proportional Response. Rants and raves from the back porch of my mind. Wednesday, December 24, 2008. I don’t know what it is but I’m just not feeling the Christmas spirit this year and I’m not sure why. Is it just me? I know it isn’t anything that is going on in my life. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever been happier at this time of the year. I have my health, have been eating well, working out, and at 41, can still see my abs! Is it because Christmas came early this year? A really cool pi...
