What senatorial debate? Darn. October 4th is an election day isn't it? Ergh. I forgot LOL I heard Walton & Johnson complaining about the people who spend too much time in Office (unlike Obama was wasn't even there a year before running for President), didn't even occur to me about voting.

That couldn't have been much of a house if it got sold for $1.75. Ebay is full of people looking for bargains worst thing I've read earlier was someone posting their object in the wrong section and got 10% of what another person that just re-auctioned it got on Ebay. How much was the house actually worth if you know?

Wow! I wonder where the $1.75 house is. I am sure that it will be in poor condition or be in a horrible area. The new owner is incredibly lucky to get a house for pocket money. She won't need to get a mortgage. Good luck to the lady and I wish her all the best in her new bargain home.

YEah yeah, i have read about that shocking news in the newspapers too, and that the perosn whom bought the house is really very lucky.. NOw with the current recession in U.S, alot of ple are trying to sell their houses because they can repay their loan, and yet she is able to buy a new house for just the price of $1.75!!! I think this kinds thing will only happen once in a lifetime, and she should be the most happiest of all.. haha
