Yup.  

Just the kind of evil scheme that is likely,
dammit.  In preparation for the anticipated 
"interesting times", Barbara and I sold our
big old victorian, and are now living in a

Unfortunately, property taxes are working on
us like termites, and I suspect that they 
will be the biggest budget item in the coming
years.
