We spent a goodly chunk of this afternoon back on the house hunting trail, spending more time than we'd like in the ranch houses of the recently deceased. Make that the over-priced ranch houses of the recently deceased, given how many of them still had original features (and, in some cases, applicances) from their construction in the 1950s.
There was one house that we really liked, but I have a feeling it's going to go quickly. Quicker than we can get our financing in order, but here's to trying.

Lentorama 2006 Saint of the day: St. Peter of Nicomedia
Tradition says he was a chamberlain in Diocletian's court, and was arrested for being a Christian when Diocletian began the last major Roman persectuion. Think about that the next time you complain about your boss.
Peter was then stripped of his skin, rubbed down with salt and vinegar, and roasted over a fire. He was delicious. "Now... now that's just superfluous, you know?"
