Penturbia

The idea may be there but the gov't and do gooders already are out to stop that. They call it urban sprawl, I call it being able to live where you want. By the way Roy, I used the red and blue in another thread before I saw this one, didn't mean to commit plagurism /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif. I was reading an article in a liberal rag about the "ideal" housing projects. It amounted to a neighborhood with yards the size of postage stamps, mostly without lawns, where you can enjoy the neighbor's kid's boom box drowning your oldies station. Included pictures and all of this development, can't remember where it was. It would be fine for someone that likes that kind of living. I don't, nor do I want the feds telling me I have to live there, comrad.

One of those moments when you go - hmmmmm....

One of the interesting things about liberal/progressive thoughts is that they encourage urban living. Most liberal/progressive thinkers are urbanites. Hmmmmmm..... /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

I agree with Bayrat about having red as the appropriate color for this type of thought process!! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Yet, those same thinkers are the ones who wish to control everything we do in penturbia and how the rural lifestyle effects their lives (raising animals for food, pestiside usage, manure spreading, etc., etc.) when in fact urban lifestyles promote the pollution, unchecked pesticide usage, large concentrations of people and the processing of sewage.

Go figger!!! /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif

"The realtor stated that most properties with some acreage are selling in a couple of days. Additionally, bidding wars are beginning to happen. This has been going on for about a year. Just unbelievable."

Yes, Terry. This is a characteristic symptom of Penturbia urban/rural growth patterns. It sounds like it's entering the parabolic phase in your neighborhood.
