RE: Market Friday: The Bid

Obviously, America is so great! Classic American cars, how big they were compared to European ones.

I think you thought this was meant for Europe. It is not, I was describing how although we have more land, most neighborhoods are built with high-density housing, the houses are close together and the yards are small. If you are fortunate, you can build your house with a little more land. That is true of the US (also many parts of Europe) As for the big cars and houses, it is mostly about the cheaper cost to build here and more land. I actually never thought bigger/better. All one has to do is step inside some of these houses built centuries ago - the apparent beauty of how things were built years ago. You know I have always been in love with Europe and its superior craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Oh, you are so right about patriotism being used as a weapon. Look at us! shakes head That is why I am disheartened. Enough said about such depressing things. Will we leave you? If you look, the places they leave are places that they are no longer wanted or needed. I took out a lot of what I wrote because it may be misunderstood - not by you, but, by others reading. I can see what a withdrawal will mean. Nobody wants to go back to those times.

I am busy, but, I always have time for people. I just get around less than I already was! :)

Thanks, Dan! @bluemoon! I hope you are having a great day! My workers started on the house today! Finally...

Oh, how nice! It's been a long time since I read something so beautiful...
I hope the repair goes quickly. I want to see a holiday from you too. That's what I wish for you now!

I need a holiday!! Soon, I promise myself!! :)

Well, so be it!
