@Joe Splitrock for the encouragement and for being so darn reasonable all the time@Mindy Jensen for expert local insight, knowledge, and mediation skills @Bill F. for getting me out of my echo-chamber and teaching me how to "win every argument"@Jim K.for somehow managing to mix things like Greek mythology and McRibs into otherwise boring real estate talk.

Booze is almost completely gone now -- my brother is a Mormon and I'm pretty sure I drink less than he does.I still like good coffee, but instant coffee and Greek frappe (if you don't know what that is, you're better off) is out.The big wrench in the works happened two years ago when a lot of my renovation physical activity caught up to me and I got arthritis in my hip.
