This STUPID housing market thing reminds of how STUPID people are when they were ALL IN A HURRY to buy a home. I guess when loan co. decided to make it EASIER for almost ANYBODY to get in. "What's the hurry, man!!" This is when people (I heard) were actually IN LINES to buy!! WHAT"S UP MAN!!!!!! This is NOT Circuit City/Best Buy etc black Friday, now... GGGEEEE
