Kind of gaudy on the exterior if you ask me, and the $22,000 & change monthly P&I would definitely stress my SS payment. :loco: No big deal for Dick, I'm sure, but he'd more than likely freeze to death from Nov-Mar. :P It pretty clear, though, the author hasn't read Steve's tutorial. :)

Looks like a ping-pong paddle that someone just shot. :shock: And it sounds as if Hull needed a place to house his hinge pin collection.

Zebco made the second production run of the "Pocket Fisherman". 1.2 million units. Mother said it was a very nice house. She was floating in the pool one night and R.D. pushed a button that opened the roof so she could look at the stars.

Father pointed out that all of the walls are curved which means that the furniture had to be custom made to match that particular wall. That's why it comes partially furnished.

It also comes with a boat dock on what might be a private lake.

Best Regards,
Clinton
