Is The End Nigh?
Post your answer here. Preferably in limerick or haiku form.
To people who like to post "First!": Your habit is truly the worst Once the topic has passed, Go back and post "LAST!" You can be just as droll in reverse! :-)
Now Robert asks: "Is the end nigh?" Has Casey been hung out to dry? We'd all like to dream That he's done his last scheme But he's finding a new house to buy!!
"foundation for providing analysis and feedback of defect data targeting quality issues in software design and code in a procedural language environment"
Said Casey, appearing resplendent: "It feels great to be independent. I just bought this suit, For my next photo shoot. It's too bad that I'm the defendant!"
There is a gal named Galina Who doesn't mind if you poke her in the Vagalina If you miss and poke her anus All she'll say is "That's what will make KC famous".
Behind Casey's innocent smile Lies a con-man who's really quite vile -- "I'm misunderstood But I'll say 'it's all good!' When I'm found competent to stand trial!"
The general way I do these, is to pick the final word (here "trial"), and work backwards. :-)
Bubba is pacing Awaiting his new cellmate And saying "I don't give a flying fuck about maintaining the right proportion of syllables for a proper haiku - just give me some of that sweet white Uzbeki ass!"
When Casey first meets his new 'cellie' In seconds, he'll be on his belly. "Get down on the bed, With your legs fully spread, While I slather on some KY Jelly!"
An entrepreneur with a murse Said "It's becoming a bit of a curse, When I say 'It's all good', They bring up their food, And their comments get really quite terse"
@Anon 12:38...I honestly don't know about the caps. I thought the sentiment was spot on.
I guess I'll have to finally explain the blog title. But it's bedtime, so I'm going to have to pull a Casey and do the "good things to come!" routine. Thank you for the compliment.
I'll figure out the caps thing, I live where there is a significant Japanese population so I consider it somewhat impolite to bastardize a cultural art form.
I did Google Chloe. If the pic on your blog is you, and you both passed on the street, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Well, maybe the hair would be a tell. Other than that, it's a close call.
Maybe that's the title explanation, maybe not, I still enjoy your writing.
F haiku. Generally I fall asleep to Charlie Rose, but his interview with retard president will keep me up all night. Yes, so that we all get along we try to keep this a relatively apolitical zone, but what does one do with such a moronic, disaster of a pres we've had for far too long who probably had a little "thingy" either in his right ear or somewhere on that side of his head where Karl Rove or some other bot told him what to say. After that interview, I felt ashamed (again) about being an American these days...and I had absolutely nothing to do with W Tard #1. I hope B. Obama will be our next pres sooner rather than later.
"I believe as the summer selling season starts making headway, existing home sales will improve."
Um, gee, resale numbers came out yesterday and were the worst decline in 20 years.
Pulte and Ryland report numbers today. SFH sales also being reported today.
I'm sure those numbers will support Nigel's claim of a summer selling season. And Nigel better use seasonally adjusted numbers.
Good friend of mine is an RE Broker and thinks there *might* be a chance housing could improve in 2008, but more likely 2009 before the bottom is reached... and then it's stagnant for a couple of years.
Ratlab, Trying to avoid thinking about W (aka worst pres of all time) for now, so this is a pleasant distraction.. Where I live, SFH's and condos are going down the drain $-wise, but I am still looking into tri-plexes and 4-plexes given the rent rate increases these days.
Encoded message to W: cut back on the Ativan dude.
"Summer Selling Season's" have never seen this kind of inventory. Glad to see Nigel still spouting the same Lereah BS. The same David Lereah who claims he saw this coming for three years while he wrote books entitled "Are you missing the housing boom" and "Why the real estate boom will not bust".
His ideas are no different than the equally smarmy and equally misinformed whack job at bloodhound realty - only that guy can at least sound somewhat convincing.
What's with the latest Nigel vendetta against you? Charging you as a Casey stalker and yet as far as I know there's been no action taken against you despite the supposed knowledge of your identity. If Casey wanted to make a statement, perhaps and order of protection and Nigel OUTING would have happened by now, but no. So it sounds like lies to me... hahaha.
A businessman hailing from Utah Wrote blogs redolent of C.Pooter His predictions of wealth Are a danger to health And his silver pins more likely pewter
There once was a boy whose sweet deals Paid for holidays, gadgets and meals When CashCall came calling Their threats were appalling But Casey said "I need more wheels!"
Why is it that Jim Cramer and Barbara Corcoran are brought on the Today Show to be experts on what to invest in. Jim Cramer says "Buy Stocks!" (always good to buy at the historical high on anything) and Barbara Corcoran goes into a 3 minute spiel on how "It's not a buyer's market or a sellers market. It's an 'in between market'!" UGH! She said "Now is a good time to put in a bid on an overpriced house, a dump or any other house that's been languishing on the market for three months."
WTF?!?!?!?! So she wants everyone to go out and buy up all of the inventory that's creating a headache for the RealTARDS. FU! Suffer! Course she just sold the Corcoran group last year for like $50 million so she really isn't suffering...
Nigel's constant link posting is tiring I'm beginning to question his wiring Does it pay to defend A man who pretends His brain has all cylinders firing?
To buy a big house is a great thrill, Then get eight and you’ll have had your fill. But if’t requires villainy, You’ll get hit with felony And then no Jamba Juice or Mac Grill.
Nigel and Casey together Had planned the best weekend ever taking note of the weather donned their best Friday pleather and disproved the axe effect forever
"i cant take anymore!" cries the boy wonder "my sweet deals have all gone asunder "i'm a looser and broke, the butt of the joke, the radar i must go under."
i'm just a poor boy from uzbekistan who dreamed of becoming american i lied and said i was rich so i could marry this bitch but now she's left me for a real man
You need the full reports that list hard and soft pulls. He may have thought you'd never see a soft pull. If he was so stupid, it'll be the easiest case you've even won.
i tried to be a big shot and i lost now the bank has to pick up the cost the 27th is approaching so quickly while i can only stand by and watch sickly as the funny hat wearing man calls out 1910 muncy from his trash can!
yep. would suck if that person pulled a report for a vendetta. Talk about being F*CKED. some folks just don't know where the magical line is that you must not cross w/o serious repercussions
Let me tell you a story of a man named Casey Thought he could flip real estate but was really quite spacey Then one day while seeking that big score A bunch of foreclosures walked through the door
@ Whoever said Nigel has a rolex, Judging from his sweet pleather members only and grip on current fashions, I always imagined him being more of a Swatch guy. Maybe some Raybans with the leather side visor things to complete the ensemble.
I wholely invite everyone to report Mr. Casey Serin to the IRS. The following link and the PI that was posted here is enough to have an investigation launched against Serin. Given that he publicly spoke of his fraud and his feeling that he could avoid an audit of a questionable return by filing late shows that this person needs to feel the full penalty of the law for his crimes.
Good heavens, the haterzing is piling up faster than I can absorb it. It's better to have too much than not enough, I suppose.
Skimming the EN comment backlog reveals that Nigh-gel did a boo-boo, maybe. Couldn't he have used Lexus-Nexus without the criminal liabilty risks of a credit pull?
It makes me glad I live in a county in which criminal records, for some ass-backwards reason, have never been fully computerized. Non-federal, non-DUI, non sex-offender cases need to be researched manually by looking through poorly-indexed shelves of dusty paper. Even the few records online are a vastly incomplete mess. I actually prefer it that way. Sometimes a crumbling infrastructure can work for you.
There once was a fellow named Swaby Who was bored and quite fancied a hobby So he started a blog Attacking a Dawg The Scots have a word for this: "jobby"
Post your answer here. Preferably in limerick or haiku form.

To people who like to post "First!":

Once the topic has passed,
Go back and post "LAST!"
You can be just as droll in reverse! :-)
Good enough? heh.
Oh lawdy. Y'all are just too interested in the murse.
(Damn Canuck impersonating a southerner :))
Is there something we need to talk about? Have you been smoking the wheatgrass?
The end nigh? Maybe. Lets see how long his ego will let him stay out of the limelight. :>
Of course, if we knew What Homey's Email Said, that might clear some things up. :)
Now Robert asks: "Is the end nigh?"
Has Casey been hung out to dry?
We'd all like to dream
That he's done his last scheme
But he's finding a new house to buy!!
There once was a young man called KC
Who was just a little spacey
He spent all his dough
and others money you know...
Getting into terrible debt.
With some regret
I am saddened to say
that there will be a day
when Bubba will make his arse pay
However until that time should come
we can all have lots of fun
helping others come first
but most importantly helping his bubble burst.

Behind Casey's innocent smile
Lies a con-man who's really quite vile --

The general way I do these, is to pick the final word (here "trial"), and work backwards. :-)

@aspeth,
I did the anon 11:48, thanks, but I think I screwed up the form. No caps is the correct way, right?
I enjoy your writing, although I'm not quite sure who Chloe is. Old guy, what can I say?
Sung to the tune of "Oh Suzanna"
Well I cam from prison

Oh Galina, won't you wait for me?
I've come back from prison and the blog has gone away!
With come in my arse!
Last one, gotta sleep --

Reality is, he's a faker.
We'd all hope that God

Nigels latest claim from his SLC blog;
"I believe as the summer selling season starts making headway, existing home sales will improve."
Based on how all his other calls have turned out, I think it's safe to say this one should be faded too.

For the sake of big oil.
