Writers write.

Well, good morning (or whenever you happen to read this.) I’m actually starting to feel a little bad for my friends up North. I spoke with my good buddy Rich a couple of days ago and he was feeling great because apparently the mid-Atlantic states were experiencing a nice spring-like warming trend.

Hey there.

Since I have the weekend ahead of me and they're promising sunshine, I wanted to say hello in case I don't post again until Sunday. I'm very pleased that our foreclosure crisis is over.
