This and that

I haven't actually been to Bellaire in many years.  Someone posted that the pretty middle class houses are being replaced with McMansions.  Guess that's the same everywhere.  We have the McMart here in NW Arkansas and the farmland as well as the beautiful mountains are being swallowed up with McMansions.  It seems no one can live in less than a 5000 sq/ft house anywhere.  And they worry about the mortgage crunch (off subject, but here I go again).  Shady mortgages are nothing new, people trying to live above their means. 

Anyhow, howdy to another Texan.  I wonder how many of you I actually knew in the "old" days of MT?
