Lawrence Yun may be eclipsing Lereah already in terms of sheer verbal acrobatics.

no shit...I had no idea Angelo Mozilo created Mozilla's Firefox...go figure.

There really is a dottieherman.com! Now I have lived!

BTW I saw her on Kudlow a few months back, and I don't know where she bought that airbrush, but I want a couple of them.

Is there a friendsofangelo.com?

Told you I need an editor. Sizzlack, you're hired!

Don't forget about Dottie Herman's arch-rival, Barbara Corcoran:

I like to refer to Angelo Mozilo as 'The Tan Man'.

I can hear the hissing already. Through in Diane Rodriguez and a couple of frozen margaritas, and you'll have one hell of a night of entertainment.

"Through" = "throw"

See sizzlack, you have your work cut out for you!

Seriously, great blog where the author rips Mozilo to shreds on a aily basis.

Yun predicts Miami will have a gain of from 10% to 50%.

Using the same scale, that's like saying there will be and 10 inches and 4.2 feet of snow.

Very accurate. Inspires confidence. Sort of like JuiceMan complaining about Yankee tickets going up by the same factor as Manhattan real estate over the same period of time, without realizing what he had done, then saying that he's still willing to pay the price.

Renters are angry:

Dick Armey is behind angryrenter.com. He knows we're just pissing our money away.

"Neil Cavuto Says Angry Renter.com is 'a very good site' on Fox."

Besides the dangling "on Fox" business, Neil is slightly to the right of Mussolini.

Speaking of the Tan Man Mozilo...the Illinois AG is suing Countrywide

When I started the special thread where only bad news about Manhattan real estate could be posted, I got tons of posts. Nobody wants to post here to say how swimmingly things are going. Maybe we can send an email to Dottie Herman or Diane Rodriguez or even Angelo himself, see if they might join the party we're having because real estate in Manhattan never falls in value.

Donald Trump was on Larry King Live last night, constantly saying that now is a good time to buy.

For real?

This reminds me of the Dow 30000 call made by some dumb idiot back during the dot com mania. When people start writing books pumping the already hyped up bubble, that's when you know you want to short the heck out of it.

"Dow, 30,000 by 2008"

Well we still have over 6 months to go!
