I love to watch Paul James! He is just as goofy as my own brother also ~ Paul! I like most gardening shows even if they are bad, repeat, or British! We don't get DIY anymore with this stupid Direct TV!!! Hate it! I like their Grounds for improvement show. Like to watch the Backyard Wildlife Habitat program though Molly can be a bit annoying. And~~am I the only one here hooked on DESPARATE HOUSEWIVES!!! lOVE THE SHOW! Nancy Grace is also one of my favs! And the history channel has had some great shows recently. Kat

I have been using the site for over two years and have NEVER been asked for anything. As I said, if you don't use Firefox and some type of ad blocker .. that may be what you are seeing? With Firefox as an example, I click on the B at the top of the homepage which gives me all shows starting with the letter B. Click on Bones and I get a page with ALL the seasons and episodes. Click on the episode and I get a page with all the links to that episode. The next page will say something like "Please Wait while we verify your request". Then you get the "Click Here" to watch screen. Like I also said .. a couple of steps 'but' I have watched every episode of House MD, Bones and many other shows on the site and Many of them in HD. JM

Having gone to dozens of open houses, I'm not surprised few people are able to see past the clutter, bad decorating, and awful housekeeping that many homeowners can't be bothered to change even though it would mean a faster sale or multiple offers. Yes, my husband and I look at things like drainage issues, gutters, heating systems, roof eaves, etc., and I actually will read an entire inspection report if provided. But we're by far in the minority, my RE friend says. We staged my MIL's house. Nice house, great neighborhood, but definitely on the higher end of the area. Market was slowing (May 2006) with more inventory and longer DOMs appearing. Kitchen & bathrooms were good quality, showed well, definitely turnkey but hadn't been upgraded in 20 yrs so lacked the "pro-style appliances and granite" stuff. We moved my MIL out of the house and got rid of everything; giving it away to relatives/friends and remaindering the rest through a liquidator. The rooms were painted (outside was fine); the carpet ripped out of the upstairs and the wooden floors refinished; all window coverings removed (amazing how much sun that house got, I never realized it before!); the downstairs 'bonus room' had the hideous sheet vinyl removed and flat Berber-weave neutral W2W carpet installed. We took all the advice of the RE agent and used the vendors he suggested. My MIL couldn't understand why we needed to do this. She also wanted to sell her furnishing with the house, she was absolutely sure someone would want to buy all her lovely things. My DH and I, as well as the extremely wonderful full-service agent we used, told her that no, people don't want to buy furnished houses. They particularly don't want to spend $1.1M on a classic 3bd 2ba Mediterranean full of somebody else's furniture. To the day it was sold, and maybe even now, she still doesn't understand why the buyers wouldn't have wanted her home furnishings! The stager we used kept the rooms very sparely furnished, just enough to look good. Did a beautiful job in the living room, with big overstuffed loveseat and chairs - LR was oversized compared to new construction around here - and nice large plants. The last was particularly needed since the LR also had a vaulted ceiling so one needed to keep the scale consistent. The house spent 28 DOM and got very close to asking, within $50K. Five houses came onto the market around the same time in her area: all were unstaged, 2 were taken off market after 90 DOM unsold; 3 sold after an average 69DOM with price discounts ranging from 10-18%.

Was home by myself one day folding laundry and started watching an "Amish Mafia" marathon?? I love seeing how different our lives are compared to the Amish. This show was quite...interesting?? The Amish claim there is no "mafia" other people saw different. Who knows what is correct, but it made the time pass! Some of the reality shows are entertaining, some are complete rubbish, like the Bachelor/Bachelorette!! I watch some bad tv, but never that show! LOVE Law & Order SVU is my favorite, but I will watch the other ones too. Rizzoli and Isles, Revenge (losing patience with this one). Did anyone see Whodunnit?? Each week there was a murder mystery. Liked it a lot, although I didn't guess the correct killer. Hope they bring that one back! Undercover Boss-always makes me cry when they do something nice for a deserving employee. Secret Millionaire-see Undercover Boss comment! Cupcake Wars-nice & easy to watch with the whole family
