Listing listing

This is how it looks in the listing, which Dawn found:



Either way... dang. The listing says "Basement has direct walk out of family rm." Do you think the basement and the family room are on the same floor?

Oh, wait. Here it is on Google Street View:

Hide! Hide! The real estate agent is coming!



I've decided not to put any photos with children on my blog, in case... ah... eeevil people see the listing and go to the house and kidnap the children and refuse to return them until the parents agree to co-sign on their mortgages. Fortunately the person who put together this listing -- found by Siobhan -- agrees with me. Children? What children?

...the first thing I thought of was Fashion Plates.



I've gone insane, haven't I.

(Listing found by Stacy. Fashion Plates found on eBay, and you wouldn't believe how much they go for.)

Which definition of "hopefully" are you using here?



"Hopefully trash will be removed soon (awaiting approval from seller)." I'm going to start using that as my excuse, too.

Does it come with a dock? Um... do you want one?

Dock!


No dock!


Perhaps it's a submersible dock. That seems like a bit of a design flaw to me, but what do I know about docks?
