Close call

Don't think we actually had frost last night.  Temperature in the mid 30s F this morning.

Probably colder outside of the booming metropolis.

Strange are the ways of finance

(Nothing to do with the stock market, this time . . .)

Just got through with a quick meeting on the Hazardous Waste Laundry conversion.  Apparently the bank appraisal of the proposed project came back with a large difference between the project value as condos and as rental apartments -- to the point where condos work within the proposed budget and the rentals don't.  For the same layout.  So we're making a few floor plan changes, such as adding an exercise room, for the condo market . . .

Exterminate, exterminate

I need some way to send a death-ray through the phone system.  Between telemarketers and political phone banks, someone's gonna die!

(But I won't be anywhere near.  I have an alibi, I do.)
