I've got listings that jingle jangle jingle



I walked off the dusty street and through the swinging doors of this house, hoping for a drink to sooth my parched throat. The piano player stopped playing, the bartender looked up from the mug he was wiping, and everyone at the card game turned to stare.

"Howdy, boys," I said. "I'm just a Realtor, passing through town. I don't mean to bother nobody. I'll just leave my card and move on."

(Found by Mandy.)

Deadwood....I hear Ian McShane cursing in the next room....

In the close-up of the garage, it looks like the owners have a wooden Indian peeing into a pot. Classy.

Seems might fittin that it is just off Prarie Road in Ponderosa Estates...

Didn't they film some scenes from Heaven's Gate in this house?

Cue theme from Deliverance. Yup, this is just the place to dispose of all those pesky dead bodies you've been searching for so long. Think of the privacy! Since "the older title eliminated 2bedroom one bath manufactured home on property," only the porch remains. From the bottles of water, this is clearly where you can slake your thirst while you take a break from digging shallow graves. ::shudders::

'Older title eliminated 2 bedroom one bath manufactured home on property.'

'Pon these words.
"Draw!"

A lovely waterfront retreat with all the amenities. Recreational activities include canoeing, rafting, squealing like a pig, and horseshoes.

Anyone else craving a sasparilla?

What is the blue...roudish...floaty...thingamajig in two of the pictures? Is that a satellite dish? Is it a wandering balloon? Is it part of a still, maybe?

Well, you have to give it up to the owners. That place makes more of an impression than your average manufactured home. For one thing, apparently it conceals a doorway through time, nifty feature.

Looks like a DirecTV dish.

What exactly does "Older title eliminated" mean? Did they take this property through adverse possession?

Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
She would merengue and do the cha-cha
And while she tried to be a star, Tony always tended bar
Across a crowded floor, they worked from 8 till 4
They were young and they had each other
Who could ask for more?

Gotta love the honesty. "Great place to live while you build your dream house."

Don't people proof-read?

Or does someone know what "has two kichettes" means?

Stuart said...

Herding Grasshoppers -

Perhaps the person sneezed while dictating the listing info.

Mandy said...

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who felt some of the other photos were creepy too. The Indian peeing is hilarious!

And thanks for posting Sara :o)

What I love is that the picture has a 1970's fuzzy feel that really makes it look like a screen shot from Little Old House in the Prairie...
