Greg Swann is an idiot. Behavioral issues (arrested development) from a supposed professional realtor. Greg found a scam in real estate and has been making bucks, while far more noble citizens are in life's danger in Iraq and Afganistan risking life and limb for little pay. THAT'S what's wrong with the world today: scum like Greg run free while decent people endure dumploads of crap. If it were a just world Greg would be in Afganistan getting shot at and avoiding roadside bombs instead of someone else. Lizard portion of brain activated…

Its the only other blog other than the BP that I read regularly. They've nailed nearly everything from when they started 3 years ago. As for Greg Swann, he's a tool who said Az housing will never go down because celebrities live there and they have so many golf courses. asshat. How could they leave off HousingPanic.blogspot.com?

Peter Viles at L.A. Land just made his curtain call at the LA Times this week. Sad. The layoffs there just don't stop. There probably won't even be a paper in another year if this keeps up.
