The Gwinnett County Commission is looking at an offer to privatize Briscoe Field. Currently, the county owns and runs the airpost, near Lawrenceville, off GA316. It has an operating budget of about $1,000,000/year. All of the money generated in fees and leases have to be plowed back into the budget for the airfield.

This is a cool program to take a little bit of apprehension out of buying a home. In effect, it is an insurance policy that protects the buyer in case of job loss. The policy will make up to 6 payments during the first year of ownership if you lose your job involuntarily (two periods up to 3 months each). It is available with coverages up to $2000/mo.

The time is getting late for those that wish to take advantage of the Tax Credit for First Time Home Buyers, but for those that are going to hit the marks, or for others that might be in their first home, here is a pretty cool site that I ran across…
The company that put the site up is American Home Shield. They are a home warranty company… keep that in mind as you surf the site. There is still some good information, and some contests that might net you a few freebies…
If you haven’t already bought a home, and want to get it done before November 30th… the clock is ticking. Better call me right away…

I just got my Google Wave invite. I have watched a few of the videos, and I am going to have to give this thing a rip. Combining text, chat, video, audio and a bunch of things I haven’t even thought of yet… with email… seems pretty cool.
