What about monkey assistant?
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

so sold our house. we're gonna have to live w/ Mother in Law in Texas for about a month while looking for our own house. The thing that's appealing, is we sell our LA house, pay the bank, buy a house in Texas clean, and never have a mortgage payment again. Even though it's mortgage, I still call it rent. It's fucking rent. So like Eric Burdon said "no more time spent....sweatin' rent".

It's a seriously good feeling being free of the mortgage. Just one less thing that could go wrong.

Wife and I had had a similar discussion prior to retirement, but we both have older parents that live alone in this area, so I guess we're staying for the time being. I totally get the desire not to have to be burdened with a mortgage, I hate owing anybody anything, but I'm not sure exactly where we'd want to relocate to. The forest fires we've had here in California kind of changed our minds on living in a "wooded" area.tepista wrote: ↑18 Oct 2021, 7:36pmso sold our house. we're gonna have to live w/ Mother in Law in Texas for about a month while looking for our own house.

Hello,
Step one: Transition to new job.
Texas is a funny (like funny odd, not funny ha-ha) but housing is really cheap compared to most of the country. As others have said, no mortgage is a great thing I hope to one day experience. Decide now - Texas or Texas A&M.

Step twelve: greet everyone with a cheerful "Howdy!"

Not even an issue, wife is a Longhorn. When Texas played USC in the national championship there was some serious fucking tension in the air.

I've always been a fan of "y'all" , now I can use it without cultural appropriation.
