  From margo: I cant sleep .. I keep thinking of the ex-inlaws. They have my china cabinet! Damn you swamplot!
• The Secret Pattern Language of Shadow Oaks
  From Brad: Six visual patterns in one kitchen view… argh, my eyyyyeeessss.
• Tremont Tower: How Bad Could It Be, Really?
  From Heather: I moved out to regain my health, not because I wanted to lose my dream of home ownership. Since, I declared bankruptcy, and have watched my unit foreclose four times over four years. What I purchased for $229,000 went to auction for $49,000.
