This sounds weirdly appealing. Might have to give this a go.

If I was starving and there were no pizza alternatives, then I’d like deep dish pizza. Agreed,

Deep dish is awesome. Haters can try recasting it as a casserole in their heads and try again.

Yeah, this. It’s just impossible not to like, you’ve got dough, cheese, tomato sauce, pizza spices, and your favorite pizza toppings. It can’t be bad. Unpossible.

NY > Detroit Style > Tavern Style >Chicago Style

I don’t care how you order them. They’re all good.

Had some absolutely awful davanni’s deep dish a couple months ago, never again.

Is anything there good? I didn’t get a great feeling about the place from a quick scroll through the site. Obviously, I’ve never been there.

The town where I own a few acres and a “cabin” (more like a big shed) recently completed new property assessments and they went up significantly for basically everyone. On this piece of land, it went from $20,000 (2021) to $28,000 (proposed 2022). So, 40%.

There’s a process to file a grievance but it’s a pita and so the assessor took appointments with whoever wants and discussed the assessment, often changing it.

I met with him for 5 minutes today and he lowered it back to 20k, which is just amazing to me. One, that the process is so insane that a 40% increase (lol?) can be lowered back to 0% … And how easy is life in a small town that this is just a conversation. I still can’t get over it.

Random trip report, I guess.
Assessment on my house was dropped 20k last year, but I figure that’s gonna change soon.

Non deep dish pizza there is fine, nothing special. Better off just going to Pizza Luce though.

Confirmed the buy will pay to extend my rate lock. Still have no date though. Supposed to get power and gas hooked up this week.

My upstairs neighbors put their apartment up for sale a few days ago. I’m interested to see how long it takes to sell and what price it gets in this market, especially since it has the same layout as my apartment. They picked a list price about 20% higher than what another unit with the same layout sold for in 2019.

Price are falling. Another apartment near me was listed for sale by owner 4 days ago, and today they made a 6-figure price cut.

Well, after buying in summer of 2008 looks like I’m going to have great timing again.

Fortunately I committed to this house in August or so, so prices went up some after I committed. Houses similar to mine were going for 10-15% more last month than what I committed to last summer.

They finished house number #1 in my development. Gas and electric hookups are done for them. Think I’m number 10-12 or so on this list to be done. Hopefully I can fucking move already.

My zillow estimate is down 10% off peak about 3-4 months ago. I’m sure I could not have actually got that price at any point in the last 2 yrs. So it’s not really a loss, but still feels like a bit of one.
