Good news for bears then.
How is stagnation good for 'bears'?
I can understand it means that prices are not escalating out of their affordability whilst saving for a deposit.
It certainly doesn't mean that its getting any cheaper and of course the question then raises as to how much it costs for their current accomodation.
How does it affect those that STR and are looking for price drops?:wall:
What we've got here is....... failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.

Don't forget there was a discussion about Rush from two people who thought they were on the totally 80's thread.
What ? Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Purt (:D) ?
There's nothing 80's about Rush........
Last night, somewhere in Florida......

Going to see Rush in May, been into these guys since the 70's, you can't fault some prog rock and ace muscianship.
I shall also be attending one of their shows (for the ??th time).
Awesome band.30 Year Challenge : To be 30 years older. Equity : Don't know, don't care much. Savings : That's asking for ridicule.0 -

Seriously.
Shall I go back to one of your posts from last year where you say "look, you can get a mortgage at x rate", copy it, quote it, and then say "ha, look, you are so wrong, you can't get a mortgage at that rate".
I won't....as when you said it, it was true. No point me trying desperately to make out you are saying it now, is there.
Yet, in, what I can only assume is sheer desperation, you are trying to make me look silly for saying house prices in Nov 2010 were falling.....and at the end of March 2011, Nationwide is up, therefore, I was wrong to say they were falling?
The sheer desperation is rather amusing.0 -

I've never really listened to Rush to be honest. Do you like Devin Townsend's solo stuff Ad?
I'm off to see Kyuss this week, which is a band I never thought I'd see live (they split up when I was about 14, so I never got to see 'em first time around).0 -

wow, I didn't know they still toured, thanks for that!

I saw Rush in 1979, in Liverpool on the Hemispheres tour, first concert I ever went to. Was rather dragged along, but was a great concert in the end, and the smell of patchouli oil is still very evocative.
In the interest of increasing cross species understanding - bear to bull - I do very much recommend the first Dresden Dolls album.
You've gone from an honourable foe to my joint favourite poster here with Cleaver, but Cleaver is a bloke and you're female, so Cleaver comes second.....sorry mate.:DHave owned outright since Sept 2009, however I'm of the firm belief that high prices are a cancer on society, they have sucked money out of the economy, handing it to banks who've squandered it.0 -

Not really listened to Devin's solo stuff. Strapping Young Lad on the hand are/were gods. I like my drummers and Gene Hoglan is frickin' insane.Have owned outright since Sept 2009, however I'm of the firm belief that high prices are a cancer on society, they have sucked money out of the economy, handing it to banks who've squandered it.0 -

I must admit, if Hamish "came out" as a Rush fan, I might offer to buy him a pint or two (not of his usual tipple though) :beer:
Signals tour 1983(?) was my first time. Seen them at least once every UK tour since, and once at the Hollywood Bowl in LA.30 Year Challenge : To be 30 years older. Equity : Don't know, don't care much. Savings : That's asking for ridicule.0 -

Not a huge Rush fan I'm afraid, but you can't help but admire the contribution they've made to music.
I'll dig out and occasionally play the Moving Pictures album throughout, not so fond of the early or later stuff, although I confess to also owning a copy of Roll the Bones. Neil Peart is a f***ing God on drums though, I'll give them that.
When I want a fix of outstanding musicianship, I'm more likely to reach for Muse than Rush these days.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”
