(You know my parents actually used to have SEVERAL house boys years ago,--but that was in Manila and later in Indochina...I still have their little uniforms!)

For the women in the group, feel free to substitute 'pool' boy for the house boy, wink, wink...

I'm thinking more like a SHERPA. I need a dive sherpa. I go down there, and then on my slate ask for my speargun when something interesting (and gameworthy swims by) or ask for my underwater camera when the visibility is 75 ft, or I have the sherpa train their dive light on potential lobsters and lure them into my game bag...

I think this has real potential.

I have several broken down cars in my front yard so my dogs have a place to sleep. I also have my living room couch on my front porch, so me and the my other jobless friends can complain about all the nothing we did today. I'm living the high-life..

yea, yea, but if your porch (that's not the CAR) collapses,--how many dogs would be killed?

Hum your survey seems to exclude people with houses between $1,000,000 - $1,999,999.

Yea,--I just tried to limit the options!

But,--I think it still is a useful tool for people to see where others stand when it comes to people's economies and their 997s.

In California if a house is between $1M and $2M wait 6-months.

definitely trailer park (right now I'm lounging in a brown naugahyde recliner munching on a fried spam, velveeta, and miracle whip sandwich).

And the mod-hating wife just sent our newly arrived 17 year old swedish cleaning lady packing (I told her the cleaning lady was 71 - guess I'm dyslexic), so I'm left to amuse myself with Rennlist!!! So by these standards a 997 is apparently beyond my means.....

You can send her my way, we can use a cleaning lady....I'll keep her gainfully employed.
