Let me be the first to claim: rents will decline by MORE than 100%! Yes, folks, that's right. You heard it here first. Soon landlords will be paying YOU to live in THEIR apartments! (If you don't detect the sarcasm here, get your hearing checked post haste. Thx.)

Last night my husband was babbling about the price of stick buns, err, sticky prices? Who knows. Maybe things won't budge much more.

Stick prices? Either your husband is an economist or reads too many economics blogs.

The oddest phrase out of their misbegotten mouths (the economists, that is) that I have heard is the phrase "downward sticky."

What the hell does that mean?

I predict soon there will be so few jobs that you have to pay the employer to work.
Housing prices will decline 300% to be $1/sq ft.

The only thing that will increase in price is the cost of bullets, bomb shelters, heavy duty safes, and bullet proof vests.

Life as we know it is over. No point in waking up tomorrow morning other than to hold off all the potential looters outside your door.
