My hand has flown to my heart just thinking about it. You don't have to know the stories about Michael Bay's North American landmass of an ego to get a clear picture of the man. You needn't have listened to his nasal voice on the commentary...
... before their journey began, hundreds of years ago the planet had become uninhabitable, used up by the people who had lived there. The people of Earth set out to terraform the planets; create colonies, homes. There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of ...
...low red light of dawn hung ominously over the city. It stained the mud brick buildings a blushing scarlet and gleamed rosily from the tiles of azure and white that decorated the gates of wealthy homes. As Altaïr neared his destination, the mud brick buildings began to far outnumber those with glazed facades. There were quarters in Cairo where even the beggars ate soft white bread, where silks...
...to say that unemployment is a lagging indicator, that assumption can really only be made outside of a balance-sheet downturn. In the current environment, when people are barely hanging on to their homes, they've already tapped loans from their 201Ks, they are already working fewer hours and/or for less pay while their health insurance costs (assuming they have health insurance) continue to rise, ...
... out to crush a local rebellion, but then went on to raze entire villages and slaughter all of their inhabitants… Some 200,000 Armenians died—20 percent of the population—and a million homes were ransacked. ‘Armenian holocaust,’ cried a New York Times headline in September 1895, employing the word that would later become synonymous with genocide.” Oren then went on to establish that more than a ...

...other company year after year, brutal summer after brutal summer. Millie is 13 and Kurt her junior, at 12. They are both around 35 lbs and these healthy seniors are still waiting for those forever homes that they have been rejected for over and over again. These old eyes have seen all the young ones come and go. They have weathered Hurricane Katrina and Wilma, recovered from mange and seen their...
... house hunting, but not in any serious fashion since we’re not really financially able to take on the expense of a house, but we do like to drive around and haunt the neighborhood foreclosures and HUD homes in the area.
We’re like vultures, in that sense, gleefully feeding off the carcasses of the unfortunate.

Over the past few months, we’ve had our eye on a house in a city ...
... another access route or passageway when a road is closed down. There is only one entrance/exit for our street of several houses and farms, and if there were to be a fire or other incident our homes would be destroyed. Legally CSX is required to provide us a way out when the road is closed. However, the workers have not done so and have been increasingly rude and volatile. One told me that the ...
