Rainy day plans in Gwinnett

Garrett at the track

Garrett at the Controls

Today when we got to preschool, we discovered that the school would be closed for the day due to power issues.

And the energetic 4 year old needs to get out and do some things… today was rainy and cold… So, we decided to run out to Discover Mills and wander around. One of the things on the long list has been hitting the Slingshot Speedway to run some laps on their GIANT slot car track. We have spectated on multiple occasions, and it was time to step up to the controls.

When Garrett saw the Lightning McQueen car… the decision was made. We were going to race. The price wasn’t bad, we got

Got money to lend…

I was talking with one of my mortgage brokers today…  We are planning on doing a few podcasts, and he is a pretty cool guy, so we like to jabber every once in a while anyway.  But there were a couple of things that Ken said to me as I was wandering around the store looking for birthday presents for a 4 year old and a 2 year old.

Lane, I have money here and I can’t find anyone to take it…

I’m watching the news, and I’m reading about the real estate markets and the “credit crisis”… and from that I get the impression that

Truly Stupid Human Tricks… Video Sunday.

As I watched this, I kept thinking that it had to be a joke…  I mean, really.  Did this guy seriously think a Lincoln Mark was going to go almost 300 miles per hour and not turn into a scrap metal bin?

Go Thrashers…

Just went to the game tonight.  The Thrashers beat the (until tonight) unbeaten Buffalo Sabres in an over-time shoot-out.

Thrasher hockey is a blast.  It is fun, fast and exciting.  Garrett cheered as the Thrashers scored.  Jackson cried when the Sabres scored (he is 7 months old, so I think he might have been spooked by the Sabres fans nearby).

Throughout the season I will write about interesting things I “figure out” during games.  I hope you join me.

Thanks…

Housing starts fall to the lowest level in 17 years… and it is good!

Just off the wires in the latest housing news…

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Construction of new homes dwindled to the second-lowest level in 50 years last month, as home builders sought to reduce the number of unsold inventories in an elusive quest to find the bottom of the historic housing collapse, according to government data Friday.
Housing starts fell 6.3% in September to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 817,000, the lowest since January 1991 and just 19,000 above the record low, the Commerce Department estimated.
Starts of single-family homes tumbled 12% to an annual rate of 544,000, the lowest since February 1982 and the fourth-lowest ever. Read the full government report.
Housing starts were also revised lower in July and August. Starts in August were revised to 872,000, down from 895,000.

Of course, the big question is how can this be GOOD news?

It comes down to
