Well, Boyz, I'm heading to Oklahoma just as soon as I flip this house... signed the paperwork today with the realtor, and this is a good time to sell property in the White Mountains, not to mention the fact that there are a $h!tload of Kalifornian political refugees flocking here, as I did a year-and-a-half ago. Meh, no worries, it's time to bail outta Mormon Country for real... I mean WTF, I've taken TWO drug screens which I know were clean (haven't had a bong hit in months), yet still no job, not to mention all the other rejections which were probably based upon my age and the fake felony outta the Socialist Republik of KaliMexiFornia. Time to head deeper into redneck land, where some folks will see right through a fake Kalifornia felony... plus there'll be no Mormons doing the so-called "hiring"--- that'll be a step in the right direction. Live & learn, I reckon, and good thing I still have a second shot at making this relocation work, AYE???
I 've been looking at listings around Lake Eufala, largest lake in Oklahoma, but I'm leaning toward the northern end because I believe there's more opportunity there, compared to some of the smaller towns south of I-40. Remember, I drove through ALL these towns more times than I can remember, but that was back in the day and I don't know how hard these burgs got hit by Obama & crew... Interwebs research helps, but it doesn't always cover all the bases. Right now, I'm pinging on homes & lake homes near I-40, with easy access to multiple burgs where employment opportunities exist. Good recreational opportunities there as well, I've been to all those lakes in eastern Oklahoma and they don't suck, might even wind up in a lake home not far from Checotah, the boat ramp within spitting distance of my house, LOL. Gotta avoid the ethnic ghettos in certain parts of the area, no methheads either, they are VERBOTEN!!!
There's a magic number when it comes to real estate pricing in "The Sooner"---or at least in this neck o' the woods. Anything below $30K, the fixer money required negates the good deal---best options lie between $32K to $35K and up for cash buyers. I have my eye on a few properties which look to be in fair shape, though I buy NOTHING without pulling a full inspection, 10-4??? Some of the lesser-priced homes look like a freakin' bomb went off in 'em, or a goldurned twister raked the topside, LOL. Might have been an exploding meth lab in certain areas... gotta watch that bull$h!t too, and discreetly ask around once I get there and toss the kittehs into a boarding kennel for a bit, no way I leave the kittehs behind after all we've been through. Last thing I want is tweakin' crackerheads for neighbors, I went through that here in the White Mountains when I almost bought that home in the White Mountain Lake subdivision... turned out that subdivision was a tweaker ghetto, despite the natural beauty of the place.
REMEMBER, KIDS!!! DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!!! IT MIGHT BE WORSE THAN YA THOUGHT, LOL...
ANYWAY, I'LL LEAVE Y'ALL ALONE FOR AWHILE, I'M JUST GLAD I'M MAKING PLANS TO RELOCATE ONCE AGAIN... THESE WHITE MOUNTAINS ARE INDEED BEAUTIFUL, BUT THERE ARE OTHER FACTORS FOR A GUY LIKE ME, AND I'M NOT RETIRED EITHER, THOUGH I WISH I WERE, LOL.
MEH, F#% IT, FOR GUYS LIKE ME, DEATH IS RETIREMENT, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! DAMN...
CHEERS, YOUSE KNUCKLEHAIDS!!! MONKEYBIKING FOREVER, WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
