Everyone used "housing bubble" for the run-up. What's the new term for the regression to the mean and financial collapse? Kinda like the new "dot-bomb"...
* Housing bust
* Housing panic
* Home selloff
* Property crash
* Bubble bust
* Housing crash
* Dot-condo
* Flipper flop
* Greenspan's big mess
* Bubble trouble
* The Great Collapse
* The Big Ponzi
* Home Hell
* The liquidity crisis
* The Big Pop
Also, when is Time magazine gonna put the bubble bust on the cover? It's gotta be soon, wouldn't you figure?

"E2 - Rise Of the Renters"
I still remember this one from the Boston area North Shore Weekly newspaper. It was near the bottom of the condo bust in 1992. The front page showed a half empty building and the headline read:
2 Beds, 2 Baths, 2 Bad!
TIME will not put the bust on the cover any time soon. They still think we are normalizing in the market. I think the soonest they do would be late 2008.
But if they are sign of calling the top and bottom, their cover shouldn't appear until 2010+.
and to think this is only the begining, i have friends who have an arm reset in 07. Problem is, is that they have not a clue as to where there mortgage is going, and they pay $2300 now @ 6.7 I try to bring it up in casual conversation, but they are the type of people who "think" they know everything, yet know nothing at all.
Needless to say they are fucked.

Song lyrics:
Take This House and Sell It, I Can't Afford to Live Here No More.
If you could read my mind, love, how I'd love to wring your neck, for making me buy this McMansion, the one with the brand new redwood deck.
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen pain, I've seen mortgage payments I thought would never end. I've seen lonely times when I could not afford a Coke, but I finally get it: I'm the bloody joke.
There ain't nothin' but sunshine when the house is gone . . . and clouds and rain and snow and sleet and hail and dew and frost and sh@t.
P.S. I like "Flipper Flop". :-D
This joke from the late 80s Denver housing crash centered around condos in Aurora (the Denver suburb with thousands of low end condos).
"Question: What's the difference between having VD and a condo in Aurora?
Answer: You can get rid of VD"
Quiet Desperation.
Can I get that with Granite?
Granite. Now there's a blog unto its own. Freakin' 6 gumdan colors of granite countertops including bullnosing at the CW for $268 (+tx) for 8 linear feet including backsplash.
I don't understand how these countertops can even be SHIPPED (from China it seems) for $268.
Maybe an analogy with some good old horror movies:
Dawn of the Debt
Foreclosure on Helm Street
Frankenbroker lives
The sound after you hit the toilet handle!
I've heard this sound for a while, but now I can clearly recognize it. I look down and see real estate is in the craper the handle has been pushed and I await to see the water getting sucked down into the sewer. Coconutz!
