An alien invasion, I think

Tentacles!


Tentacles everywhere!



(Thanks to Julia for the bottom two tentacles.)

Have fun selling the castle!

If you were going to have one photo in a listing, would this be it? Yes? It would? Well, all right then.

Found by Charlene, who says "it's probably easy to defend which, given the neighbourhood, isn't a bad thing, but don't most people want a front window?"

Built to last

Kandi found a real gem. I'll let her tell you about it.

"Paving stones in the yard...right on!"


"Paving stones on the porch... makes sense."


"Paving stones on the counter... o-kaay, things are starting to get weird."


"Paving stones on the wall. I think you've lost me."

Needed: Photoshop expert

I'm no expert, but I think that there's a slight chance someone's been manipulating this photo. Unless the house really looks like this -- I've never been to Texas, what do I know -- in which case I apologize.

(Found by Jena, representing Texas, who "can't believe they didn't mention the cantilevers in the listing!")

Just one or two things left to do


"The property does need some aesthetic work but almost all major stuff has been done by us. All it needs a is a roof leak fixed, Some paint and drywall, And ceiling tiles put in. Other then that it is pretty much perfect."

Oh... I can't stop quoting. Hold on: "And remember cash talks, bullshit walks. I am more then willing to be reasonable, but waste My time and I'll waste yours... The only reason We are selling it is to get out of Maine, Call us crazy but We prefer a good state."

Found by M Wms.

Party central!



"Party inside the spacious living room or on the covered patio; great place to invite friends over for good times." And look! It comes with guests!

Found by cortex, who will continue his househunt.

(It's hard to link to, but if you're really curious the MLS number is 8058002.)

HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION

HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION
by
The Chair

Here I am, on my way:


First stop: my aunt and uncle's house. We sat out back and talked (here we are with my cousin):



Next I went to visit my old college housemates:



I guess I we relived the old days a bit too well, because I woke up here:


One I'd recovered, I was off to explore the big city:


One thing I like about travel is getting to meet people who don't look like all the people back home, if you know what I mean:


They took me and my old housemates to a cool party in someone's basement -- wild times!


My old housemates were a bit freaked out, though. They're so uptight:


Finally, back home for a much-needed rest.
