He's the one that got me interested in west coast life style a couple decades ago! "Get him on % consignment", said the fictitious Canadian with the <i>banned in Ontario pit bull</i>. <br /><br />I would have found it offensive if he mentioned my name! No offense, but, legal teenage-adult strippers would have done a better job with YouTube.<br /><br />Sheesh, these homes are beautiful, it should be reported that way.<br /><br />Side Note: don't smoke anything, Mr. Gross, it makes things worse.<br />It's good that you have the time to participate in the comment section.<br /><br />St.PaulSnowMan,<br />Are you serious? Dominick Dunne is dead! (2009) And you knew that? The nether region of the surface of the earth?<br /><br />RE: millionaires by Metro,<br />If it were calculated by Detroit area sq miles to LA/OC then the % would be even greater, I think. There should be a spread sheet calculation for cottages to yachts to brains to $ within the same state. Michigan millionaires would top them all! LOL! <br /><br />Plus, the average man in Michigan can enjoy their state nearly equivalent to its millionaires than other states can. They just move the decimal to the left a little; shrink the house sq footage, and the cottage, too; shorten the boat length, as well. Not possible in other states, cursor won't allow it. I didn’t even mention the private air-craft possibilities in Michigan compared to other states in terms of $ classes.<br /><br />It's the 1930's like mood in some sections of the economy. Let's get Robin Leach to excite them without ketchup soup!<br /><br />In the mean time, I'll reserve Mr. Michael Gross' book at my local library that was financially established by Carnegie's international philanthropy. That'll guarantee some book sales by the past wealthy folks that unread people labeled "robber barons". That's how I was able to read "Unfamous Players" by Peter Bart! I was the first one to crack open the book!<br /><br />LOL!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-77384204801281402722011-08-02T13:49:12.386-07:002011-08-02T13:49:12.386-07:00To StPaulSnowman:
