Housing Developments...

You know what sucks? Our Housing Development, that is what sucks. It is called Edgewater. I have lived all over the country in the past 12 years of my life and i have lived in some good places and some bad places. Massachusetts was a bad place.

I would have to say that Highlands Ranch in Colorado was the BEST place to live with its parks and Rec Centers, 4 of them to be exact with all the amenities that you could hope for.

Now to our present housing community. It would appear to be a nice community with new homes and nice roads in it, no side walks though. We found a home that we liked and moved here not know that there were not going to be ANY pools or Rec Centers!! NONE!! and there are no planes to build any. The developer did not make any room for them; he was greedy and sold all the land for houses never thinking that someone might like to go swimming during the hot Richmond summers. And to boot, he has opened a new development on the other side of the road that is the same damm way, no pools, no tennis courts, no trails and no sidewalks either. What a moron!! People from Edgewater 1 are moving to Edgewater 2 for a bigger home, WHY? They will still not have anything there.

Now down the street, we have Roundtree. It has sidewalks and is going to have tennis courts, soccer fields, swimming pools and trails to ride/hike on. The homes are bigger for the most part which really does not matter when the housing market is in the dumps. The keep building and for what? it must be a tax rite-off for empty houses. My friend and i ride our bikes and watch the construction of the new homes and just laugh! They say that we might be able to use their facilities and i will hold my breath till that happens as they are not even constructed yet.

My Truck Fixed...YEAH!!

So i got a call today telling me that my truck was all ready for me to pick up. I was like WOW, already? So i went to get it today at around 3pm. They did a super job and it even came with a warrenty. It really did not look like much damage was done to my truck, but i am really happy that i got it fixed.



Here is the place that did the work.

Comic Book Stores...

Let em preface this by saying, I know, Comics at 35???

I went into a store several day ago with my friend Mark. He was told "DO No Bend The Pages." IT was called Richomndcomicx. They seamed to have a very good selection and they were close to our homes. I saw several titles that i wanted to purchase, just did not have the money at that time.

I went back today to look at a few titles and get what i saw the last time. I was in there for a few minuets and the owner came over and told me not to read the books!! I said that i was not reading the books and just looking at stuff that i have not kept up on over the years and that i was going to purchase a few in a moment. I stormed out of the store!!

I was SOOOO PISSED that we went back in to the store and told him that i would NEVER come back to his crappy store and that i would find a new one to use.

How can you not look at a book to see if you want to buy it? That is like going to the Library and being told you cant read the books in the building!!

What a grouchy OLD FART!!!

Here is a list of other stores in the Richmond Metroplex:
