Notice how the older neighborhood has single level homes, versus the new neighborhoods with mainly two story homes. Plan to buy single level, because they are going to come at a premium when these people start aging and having orthopedic surgeries and can't climb stairs very well. Two stories are a hassle.

The Difference a Couple Decades Makes

Sheeple

Now I'm stuck with these stinkin' neighbors right on top of me. More lies!

Mission Possible???
This is a task that can only be accomplished by a three story tall blow-up bird.
The goal of this company is to sell 100 homes in 10 days. They are advertising over 10 million dollars worth of savings. Does that mean they would have made 10 million dollars in the good 'ol days?

Speedway Livin'
Rockford Speedway
Rockford, Illinois
This speedway was built in the early 1950's in the country to make sure it wasn't a disturbance to anyone. That was back when people actually had common sense. Now urban sprawl has closed in, and houses are within a quarter mile and neighbors are complaining about the noise disturbance, traffic, and fumes.
A moment of silence for the unintelligent please.
Okay, now, what the heck?!? What were these people thinking when they looked out the backyards of their potential homes and saw a speedway there? Now they have the nerve to complain, and want the track shut down. What happened to using common sense and not building residential housing near a race track, and then the ultimate in stupidity of actually buying a home there? Good luck selling...you deserve to be lulled to sleep by the sounds of roaring engines, drunk fans, and crashing metal. I don't feel sorry for you.
As a side note: If you ever get a chance to go to the trailer races at the Rockford Speedway, by all means GO. You will have the best time. I guarantee it, and you don't have to be a hillbilly to appreciate it, although it helps.

Green Acres
Now this is more like it! It isn't too far from the house shown below. Beautiful home, big yard, nice pool, trees, privacy, and I would guess in the same price range. "Green acres is the place to be...farm livin' is the life for me...land spreadin' out so far and wide...something, something, something..."

Independence Day

Some Quotes From Our First President:
We ought to be persuaded that the propitious smiles of heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which heaven itself has ordained.
One of his officers, Henry Lee, summed up contemporary public opinion of Washington: First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen.
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
We ought not to look back unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors, and for the purpose of profiting by dear-bought experience.If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.
Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.
As to pay, Sir, I beg leave to assure the Congress that as no pecuniary consideration could have tempted me to accept this arduous employment at the expense of my domestic ease and happiness, I do not wish to make any profit from it.
A government is like fire, a handy servant, but a dangerous master.
