<< I've already figured that when Americans price themselves out of mobile homes and RVs, then tents will be the next big deal.>>
Maybe Buffett's thinking is that, the next move for all those people with no downpayment, undoc'ed, ARM, interest only loans buying $400-$500k mansions next move will be to those mobile homes...or, maybe you ARE right. Maybe that move might be directly to tents!<G> Blue Light Special...plastic tarps at KMart...who makes those tarps!!!!

I heard schwrazanegger and a few other governors were going to make prisons out of tent cities - there was a big write up on the 2 man blow up tents to house these violent criminals - it was going to amount to massive savings.

Now my homeless bum friends know living in tents is far too high and mighty, might get you robbed or killed living that classy - so my buds in key west and hawaii just sleep on the beach or back in the swamp - sometimes you can catch a gator if he doesn't catch you first. I am seeing the homeless fight for corners here in palm beach county - it seemed that one would work the corner for a few hours in the searing heat and share with a few others as they took turns, but today it seemed like things got a little tight and they were not sharing anymore - one bumb hogged this particular corner for the entire day and didn't give anyone else a chance - greedy. This homeless woman - mid 30's - she had the corner about an hour but some guy told her to get in I guess so she jumped into his ride - I guess they went off for a few hours fun. Cops can't get you for being a bumb eh like being a hooker. She looked hungry, next time I see her I will have to invite her to get in my ride to go have a pizza.
