Expectations

I'm still getting settled in here at the new job and home, so I thought I'd provide some entertainment before your weekend.

In Nicaragua, I was often surprised at how little was considered normal. No ceiling (just a corrugated metal roof), no kitchen cabinets (no oven either), no sink in the bathroom (and no running water during most of the day).

But then I'm reminded that those things weren't always normal here either. Just after WWII a home in Levittown averaged 750 SF. I probably don't have to tell you, that's not average anymore.

How do you get the video embeded in your blog. That's cool. Wim

If you click on the link that says subprime or beeple it takes you to his website and the original, there the video has a little button that says 'embed' click on that and it will give you the html which you can copy and paste! Nice picture by the way!
