Title: n_u
Post by: applesauce on March 30, 2011, 01:15:26 AM
I have a few things to impart on boyah this morning:

1. woah guys, woah.

2. The "dancin' rick" guy in Starsky and Hutch is actually Har Mar Superstar, which makes perfect sense, and somehow I thik I already knew that. Also he's in a bunch of Lynx commercials, which is apparently what Axe is marketed as in the UK. Makes sense.

3. Sometimes don't you wish you were just cruisin' down a two lane rural highway, it's a bit cold out, relatively early in the day, damn sunny. You're well rested, and it's dry out bu the snowmelt make everything all muddy and the windows are down and the music is good and life and love and everything. Shit son.

4. Picture this: You are a frenchwoman, and as any good frenchwoman would do, you are walking along arm in arm with a frenchman. Of course, being a frenchman, he is carrying a baguette (in a paper bag). Because being french is all about being adventurous, romantic, frivolous, laid-back, and just generally being indie before indie was a thing (or so pop culture tells me), you decide to walk across the river seine on the railing. Your frenchman gives you a boost, touching your rear in a risqué (lol, french) way, and setting you on your course, though he, as a responsible frenchman with a balance between worldly duties (wut?) and frivillity (not a word, btw), follows on the sidewalk. Suddenly, you lose your balance and fall, catching a lower ledge, but you are slowly slipping. Your frenchman hops up and tries to pull you up, but you are too far away. Naturally, he lowers his baguette for you to grab onto. Therefore, every frenchwoman cares about the tensile strength of bread. QED.

5. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

6. Should I live here?

Depends on what the rooms look like

They are pretty comparable-- one is smaller but hardwood floors, cool bay window, and better appliances. The other is larger, +1/2 bath, but worse appliances and carpet (albeit nice carpet). Also that one has awesome view (21st floor, lake Michigan), while the other just looks at other townhomes. The high rise one is more expensive by about $200. My roomates prefer the higherise but I don't think I do. : /

Pretty good. Definately better than the larger neighborhood of the second one, though the second one is part of a large complex with private security, so that probably helps. Regardless, crime isn't a huge issue around either, I don't think.

How close are they to stores?


The first one is like two blocks from a big commercial street lined with small stores, restaurants and bars.

The second is literally across the street from a huge strip mall with a grocery, walgreens, radio shack, drycleaners, mcdonald's, white castle, ect.
