Hillary - And Property Seller! - Ready To Give In!
If you’re very observant, you’ll notice that the depicted property - that by rights and tradition should be mine anyway - is ‘closer’!
That’s right, boys and girls! The seller has accepted my offer! Now he has to give the (sniff) other buyer 72 hours to show funding without selling their present residence! That’s not gonna happen, I don’t think, unless the (sniff) buyer’s mommy or daddy runs a bank.
I am quietly encouraged, after being (I must admit) a little disheartened recently.
Here’s a little pre-celebratory porn!

I’m squeezing everything here in anticipation for you McGoo! Here is hoping the stinky buyer doesn’t run to daddy.
Update on my situation…still waiting. Seems all of this wet weather put the finishing touches of the new building of the job, that is rightly mine, behind. Seems the owner can’t remember where she left her head or the phone in all of the commotion.
Seems I’m getting tired of waiting and applied at the USPS in the meantime for shits and giggles. That wait might even be funnier.

Thanks, PnB!
I just fax’ed the written paperwork (with my signature) to the agent. Four times - as my fax machine kept sucking in 2 pages at once.
BTW: My agent also fax’ed me an apology for screwing up things early on. We should have done this last Thursday.

Tell your agent you will accept his/her apology when they reduce their fee because of mental anguish that brought on the squirts.

Yeah! A kind of ‘Rectal Ang-guish’ thing.
Awww..I can’t get too mad at her. She’s really young and inexperienced.
May 13, 2008 at 7:42 pm
Here’s hoping nada goes wrong.
So, is she hawt? That always mitigates my displeasure.
May 13, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Thanks for the well-wishing, Gnus! You ask:
“Is she hawt?”
Does a bear shit in the woods?
Would a cow lick Lot’s wife?
Does the devil hate the Wafer?
Does the Pope wear a tall hat?
Does asparagus make your pee stink?
Of course she’s hawt. Well, cute, for sure. She’s too modest and shy to be really - y’know - searing “hawt”.
I also understand her young husband is 6-foot 4inches tall, an ex football player, a county deputy sheriff, and an NRA match marksman.

You can take him McGoo. Youth and inexperience are no match for age and guile.
Pre-Congrats on the (likely) successful purchase! You’re gonna have a lot of fun there I’m sure.

Thank you, Enas!
It’s actually almost exactly what my “ideal” property would consist of. I wanted woods - with a little field. I got half-n-half. I wanted a piece-of-shit place to live while I built my dream house. I got it. I wanted to have a creek, stream, river, or pond on the property - I got it (the creek).
I wanted it off the main road. it’s 1/4 mile down a private drive with only one other house on it.
I wanted enough room to set up a 50yd pistol range and 200-to-400 yd rifle range. Got it!
Now I just have to make it all come together and happen.
Oh, I forgot. I could take him, Enas, because I’m old and cunning, and I don’t fight fair at all, and I would probably sneak up from behind and bop him when he wasn’t looking. But cops have friends…

McGoo Acres is the place to be…

Congrats McGoo. I had a feeling that the sudden infestation of three-toed sloths and tapeworms would do the trick.
May 14, 2008 at 11:03 am
Yep. I think the tapeworm infestation turned the tide. Glad I called on your services!

Wow–that’s nearly more exciting than the 2.5 million I’m getting from my Nigerian friend whose wealthy banking father passed away.
Can’t wait for the update!
May 14, 2008 at 1:31 pm
I am soooo envious of your Nigerian deal, Mayor!
But when my wiener-growing medicine shows up, we’ll see who has the last laugh! I even have a bargain insurance policy on every foot of it already! The paperwork is due to arrive any time now, since my payment check I sent them already cleared.

Shh…McGoo….the owner-lady of the job she should have given me already, just called. She is going to hunt for my application in the stack and is supposed to call back to set up an interview after one of her meetings this afternoon. Yeah. We will see.
Impressions so far….she has a raspy-smokes-several-packs-a-day-voice and says she’s too old ‘to be moving a decades worth of shit’. I told her to just chuck all of it. But hey, the place is very close in these high-gassed priced times.
May 14, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Obviously the owner-lady recognizes superior quality employees! Damned right she better go look for your application!
Harrumph! The presumption of some folks: What? Did she think you filled out that application just for the fun of it?
I think she should go ahead and give you a sign-on bonus. It’s only fair.

Steamboat, congratulations on the pending purchase of your estate. You will soon become the landed gentry.
I’m jealous because you’re doing exactly what I intend to do. Currently living in the city and hating it. Grew up in farm country and have always missed living in the country. I wanna live on a dirt road. You’re even building the same ranges I intend to build. I’d like an 800 yard range but I’ll settle for 400 yards. Some place for the M14 to do its rock and rolling and some place I can blast Free Bird and no one but me will hear it. Jealous. Jealous. Jealous.
But then all those ladies you post actually want me, so I’ve got that going for me. I’m gonna tell them they’re going to have to start leaving a little appreciation on the top of the dresser as they leave.
May 14, 2008 at 10:16 pm
Thanks, Crank! Tell ‘em you have a buddy with a really long target range! I’d like an 800 yd range but that’s a half-mile of land. A bit much. My land will be 1/4 mile by 1/4 mile (about 440 yds on a side).
Oh, yes, I believe I’ll be in hog-heaven in about 6-12 months. That’s how long it’ll take to get the majority of the work done I need to do to make it home.
But…I have the rest of my life to enjoy it.
I grew up in a semi-rural area and learned tracking and stalking (I never was much on hunting) and trapping. I was a bit stunned when saw raccoon and opossum tracks out there and recognized them instantly - after nearly a half-century of not giving them a single thought. The old learning is still in my noodle somewhere. Amazing.
I wonder if I still remember how to set a proper string snare? I’ll try one this winter. Rabbit stew!

Grew up in rural Pennsylvania (they’ve paved it by now) surrounded by farms and fields. Walked out the back door and went rabbit and pheasant hunting. Trapped muskrats in local streams. I know what you mean about recognizing tracks.
Nowadays, I can’t really hear humans very well but put me back in the woods and I can still hear a squirrel fart. Not a hunter anymore, I just like being in the woods and along streams and away from cities.
